Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RTCCL2A17K72K This is the best $30 I spent for this vacation! What fun to just snorkel with a digital camera. I leave my camera in the case almost all the time now, to protect from rain, sand, etc. while at the beach. This video is in Kauai, Hawaii.

I purchased this more than a year ago for a one week vacation. Tested the unit before leaving and it appeared to work fine. My wife and I where ruthless with the camera and the pack. It was placed in the unit and sealed in the morning, used all day while snorkeling, getting taken out constantly for better land based shots then finally the bag was cleaned and dried over night for the next day. After the first 2 days the seam started to break up at the top where the unit rolls up. I was extra carefull when sealing but continued to use the unit. By the last day of the trip water was slowly getting in a few drops at a time. It still worked but I was constantly checking. On the trip back I checked the unit out completely. The edge seals where comming apart, it would not have survived another day without camera damage.

I still loved this product think it worked fantasticly but it only works for 1 vacation then its dumpster material. It did convince me to purchase a $200 canon underwater case for the sd800 for our next vacation. I do not regret buying this. There is no way I would have purchased a more expensive case before using the WP100 for a solid week. Underwater photography is a real blast even if you only snorkel. The only reason not to buy this is if you are ready to get one of the high end hard cases for a couple hundred.

I got it for my Hawaii vacation.
It worked well for swallow water snokeling and protecting from the beach sand.
Sometimes the side of pictures was dark because of the lens cap.
So you need to align your camera and the cap from time to time.
I am pretty satisfied in terms of cost.
It worked reasonably as what they said, and much cheaper than the
original camera manufacture's waterproof case.

This is a great alternative to expensive waterproof housings for digital cameras. I purchased this for a compact digital camera after loosing my hard case (and sony cybershot) on a rafting trip. Not wanting to risk such a big loss again, I bought this soft case in hopes that it would do the job. It keeps the water out well, but the lack of a tight fit between the lens housing and camera occasionally creates a peripheral black shadow on photos an videos. For the cost, you can't beat it.

Don't listen to Alexander or W; they're idiots. Probably Alex didn't completely close the hidden ziplock. As for W, I have a Canon SD1000 and, based on his advice, I got the W300 instead of the 100. Big mistake! Now that I have the right one, it fits perfectly! No, the flash will NOT work, and so your pictures will probably be blurry except in clear water in sunshine, but for the price it's great. I wonder if someone makes a water-proof, radio-controlled flash...
