Canon WP-DC5 Waterproof Case For PowerShot SD700 IS
- Pros: Very strong and durable case. Waterproof to 130 feet, not to 33 feet like a lot of cameras or cases. You can take it skiing and get snow packed in and around it without any risk to the camera. I have even dropped it pretty hard in the snow or on the water (from 30 mph jet ski speeds) and it has held up without any indication of failure. It is wonderful at the beach as well because you can set it in the sand and not worry about the sand getting in all the cracks and crevices of the camera itself. You just have to wash it in the sink to get the sand off before opening the case.
- Cons: Bulky. I have owned this thing for at least 6 years and used it a lot until the camera stopped working. I replaced it with the D10, which does not have a need for a case as it is waterproof and is much smaller than this case.
- Other Thoughts: Wonderful case for a discontinued camera, so you will soon have to find it used if you want one, but they will become much cheaper as these cameras start to disappear.

Canon WP-DC13 Waterproof Case For PowerShot SD1000
Excellent Case
- Pros: Small, lightweight, excellent seal, excellent construction and is easy to operate underwater as well as above water.
- Cons: None.
- Other Thoughts: I've had this case on dives down to 109 feet without any problem. I've had this case in various water environments including high salt and severe allege environments without issue. The case cleans up very well after a dive.

Flip Video AWC2T Underwater Case
great gadget, great price
- Pros: I'm a huge fan of my flip camera and for $35 I can use it underwater? What is not to love? I bought this case to use in the bahamas for snorkeling and playing with my kids in the pool. It worked great in both scenarios. We got great shots of the fish and my family.
- Cons: None. You just get used to the fact you are putting a high tech gadget in the water which is counter-intuitive to most folks.
- Other Thoughts: Using the Flip software you can extract frames as snapshots so in a sense you are also getting a underwater still camera by using this case!

Flip Video AWC2T Underwater Case
Fit and Finish is Great
- Pros: Great fit with a sturdy feel. The rubber gasket that seals it also feels like a pretty good quality gasket. Cant wait to take it snorkeling.
- Cons: No tripod adapter
- Other Thoughts: Here in Minnesota everything is frozen. Ill have to wait to use it in the lake.

Canon WP-V1 Waterproof Case
Not bad
- Pros: Relatively inexpensive. Feels very solid. Large handle makes shooting even easier than no casing. 130 ft rating is great. Reliable as long as you take care of it and keep sand out. Very simple design- takes seconds to pop in and out.
- Cons: The mechanical design of the zoom lever is poor. Pulling in zoom (left rotation) is slow since it can't quite push the zoom all the way. The problem is caused by it hitting the plastic stop too early. A workaround is to set the zoom speed to be constant in the HF20's menus before hopping in the water.
- Other Thoughts: Great addition to a great camcorder. Despite the zoom lever issue, I'd recommend it.

INTOVA Sport 8 Digital Camera
Solid beginners or everyday beach camera
- Pros: The camera itself can go 30 feet down without a n underwater housing which is impressive for a camera in its price range. It has a good deal of special settings to help beginners take great underwater shots. It can also be used out of the water just as easily. Its zoom is surprisingly good for a smaller camera. Also Intova does make an underwater housing for this camera that allows it to go 130 feet down. If you don't plan on getting its underwater housing it is a perfect camera for water sport events and snorkeling. It also makes a great beach camera.
- Cons: None at this time
- Other Thoughts: The price at Newegg was even cheaper than the price at my local Wal-Mart.
Read the underwater directions carefully so you know how to care for your camera. Like any dive camera, improper use will wreck its underwater functions and you will be out of luck.

Canon WP-DC17 Waterproof Case for Powershot SD870 IS
AWESOME
- Pros: Waterproof ;-)...so simple to use, gave me EVERY function available to my camera while in the case. Easy to view the screen. All the buttons are in the same place, so you don't need to relearn where everything is. Well worth the money for even a single trip. Rinse it off in clean water after a day on the beach or snorkeling in Hawaii and you are set. Did I mention it is waterproof? Seriously though, it did not fail, did not fog, nothing.
- Cons: The flash diffuser isn't the best, but unless you are underwater at night it doesn't detract too much.
- Other Thoughts: A must have for any trip involving water. Makes a great protective cover too, I just left it in the case for the whole 2 week trip.

Canon WP-DC4 Waterproof Case for PowerShot SD600
Worked great!
- Pros: Easy to use. Buttons all lined up correctly. I was able to use all the functionality of my camera underwater. Takes great pictures. I recently returned from Cancun and everyone loved the pictures taken with this case.
- Cons: It almost costs as much at the camera.
- Other Thoughts: This is my second underwater case for a canon camera and I have been happy with both of them.
