Canon WP DC42 - Marine case for Canon Powershot SX220 & SX230 HS

This camera and case are the best. We are halfway through a two week vacation in Hawaii. I have photos above and below the water. ALL are outstanding. I love the vivid mode in the camera and the ability to snorkel and dive with the housing.

Pros:
Useful above and below the water.
Full camera functionality with the housing.

Cons:
GPS does not work in the housing.
Bulky - as expected - takes a lot of room and is a little heavy. (Sturdy)

Camera fits in the housing snugly, with access to all camera functions. Housing came with wrist strap and neck strap, so its use will not be limited to underwater pictures...good to use camping or kayaking, when there is a chance the camera could get wet.

I've never used other underwater case before. Bought this case in Oct. Went to test it out in Dec. Did 13 dives in areas Playa de Carmen, Cozumel, Mexico and Glover's Reef, Belize. Max depth 80+ feet. No problem at all.

Price:
Even this case is one of the cheaper ones in terms of cost but the build quality is still very solid.

Function:
Zoom worked great.
The dial on the function wheel does not work with this case. (NOT the dial for the camera mode, that works.)

Conclusion:
No complaints at all. Performed very well for under $250.

Tip:
Make sure that you put your camera case on before heading out to the beach or dive sites so that you could minimize the risk of having sand or dirt get in the seal.
