• Dimensions: 2.80" h x 3.40" w x 5.20" l, .65 pounds

Features

• For small underwater subjects, choose the Macro Mode. Move to within minimum focusing distance of your subject and depress the shutter button halfway. Then using the LCD monitor, move the camera to sharpen your image. Finally, press the shutter button all the way to take the picture. Utilize the flash diffusion plate on the case to ensure even underwater flash lighting
• The first thing to master with wide-angle shots is keeping the water color blue. To keep water looking blue, first set the White Balance* - choose Daylight in shallow water and Cloudy for greater depths. Then, get below your subject. Aim upward towards the sky to create dramatic silhouettes
• Panorama - First, select the Stitch Assist Mode on your PowerShot digital camera. Shoot a series of overlapping images. Then use the PhotoStitch Software, supplied with your camera, to automatically combine images into a breath-taking panorama on your computer
• You can also use your Canon Waterproof Case on land in environments where snow, sand, excess humidity or dust could lead to damage. Ideal for skiing and many other activities, a Canon Waterproof or All-weather Case provide an added measure of safety for your PowerShot camera on land
• Follow instructions for maintenance tips to optimize housing performance, for example - The O-ring is the water-tight barrier that seals the PowerShot Waterproof Case and prevents water from reaching your camera. It is critical that you properly prepare the O-ring before closing the Waterproof Case and taking your camera into the water

Customer Reviews

Camera Case
Quality product! I think the price was a little high considering its just a case. I've used it 5 times taking it to 93 feet at the deepest and not a drop of water or condensation inside. It would be nice if I could read what buttons are for what on the back of the case but the letters are clear and its hard to see underwater. My camera is new too so I'm not totally familiar with the buttons yet.

Canon SD880 IS plus WP-DC26 performed flawlessly
I purchased Camera and Housing for a trip to the BVI. Dove to 77 feet and no leaks or condensation. All the buttons worked. The only issue is the wheel can't be turned in the housing. To use underwater mode select it before you close the case. Then you can switch between movie, auto and underwater modes with the top sliding switch. I don't believe the weights are needed, slight positive bouyancy is ok. Large screen assists with composition. I got the best shots by turning the flash to always on. I used a little anti fog on the case lens and no problems.

Great waterproof case
Real simple. This case does what it is supposed to do, keep water out! It is made quite well. The materials used appear to be of a high quality. Operation of all buttons, switches, and knobs work without effort and are consistant in function.
I just got back from a trip to Bonaire (32 dives) and this case worked flawlessly. No leaking including 2 dives down to 110'.
Well done Canon. I didn't think it would be any different!
