Great UW Case for the Canon Powershot G11
Review Date: February 3, 2010
Reviewer: Andrew Cooper, Mauna Kea, HI, USA
Excellent case, particularly for the price. I live on the Big Island where the reef is only a 15min drive, thus get to use my gear every few weeks. I bought the G11 as an everyday carry camera and a dive camera. The case is setup with a tray and a Sea&Sea YS-110 flash unit. Photo quality is excellent, challenging much larger DSLR cameras for quality in a unit that costs far less. The only major issue with using the G11 underwater is the relatively slow shutter response.
Unlike some cases, all controls are accessible, with the sole exception of the thumbwheel. To adjust values that require the thumbwheel, hold the shortcut button down and use the left and right buttons on the rocker to adjust up and down. A two hand workaround, but there is a way.
The case is better than previous WP-DC21 for the G9, some of the controls have been moved for better access for fat fingers in dive gloves. I have yet to accidentally power off the camera when trying to take a photo with this case.
Yes, the case has no warranty, expected in an underwater case where a small grain of sand or poor maintenance of the seals can cause a leak. If you can not afford to lose a camera, don't take it 30m underwater.
Excellent value!

Very recent purchase, and I've only used it on about 15 dives but I've been very pleased. The only issue I've had is a stuck shutter button at 85' feet when diving a wreck. I had to power off between shots. It released itself at the safety stop and I noticed after the dive that there was a cut out in the clear plastic around the shutter button that I could have used to insert a pick and relase it manualy. It may have been due to the silty nature of the wreck interior and it seems to have been a freak accident - one that I now know how to correct without losing shots. I have no complaints with the Canon housing at all.

I'm a newly certified diver and was looking for an affordable but good quality option for taking underwater photos. The case for my SLR ran upwards of $1,400 so I tried the WP-DC34 with the Canon G11 and am absolutely thrilled with the results! Some of the controls (e.g. zoom) are easier to use with the housing than without. I'd recommend this for a serious amateur on a budget.
Nice Housing

This housing, a G11, and a one hour speed course in UW Digital Photography from Tim Blanton (Coco View Resort, Roatan, Honduras) resulted in some stunning pictures!
Great product

So far I have used this in my backyard swimming pool and in the surf of the Pacific Ocean. Works great! It's build quality is excellent and it gives you access to all of your camera's functionality. My only minor complaint it that it is a bit difficult to do the half-press of the shutter so you can grab focus and metering. Hopefully it will get easier with practice.

Hello, My name is Peter OBrien and I really enjoy taking pictures of my friends and family.
It is always fun to go back and look at pictures and remember what a great time everybody had at that special occasion, fun night out with friends or that special trip you took with that someone special in your life.
I have found that the canon powershot digtal camera works best for me because of its simple use, easy to carry around and the ability to download all the pictures to my computer. A great way to email everyone a funny picture of a friend.
Since I use canon digital cameras, I thought I would set up this blog and place reviews of canon powershot cameras and all other canon cameras so you can find the best canon digital camera for you to take all the great pictures of your family and friends.
