www.amazon.com Underwater Digital Cameras are the latest craze and you can totally understand why. When i purchased my Underwater Digital Camera I had looked at several reviews to find the best rugged camera for me. Underwater Digital Cameras allow you to shoot underwater to high depths and to also record in HD format. Their are times when you want to go to the beach with your digital camera but you are worried that they will get wet or dust inside of them that is why having a Underwater ...
First of all, I love my Canon G9. It's great to take anywhere I travel. Now with the underwater housing, I can redefine "anywhere" I travel! I just got back from a cruise where I did a fair amount of snorkeling. In the past, I just used the throw-away underwater cameras. They were better than nothing, but not by much. This housing made my underwater shots rock! It was a breeze to use. While underwater, you really can't see too much in the viewfinder, so it's a lot of point and shoot. Initially, because I didn't have the instant feedback, I was only hoping my shots would be usable. When I got back to shore and reviewed them, they were great! The clarity and color are magnificent! It's particularly nice since you can set the camera's white balance to compensate for underwater. That made everything a snap. I'd highly recommend this to anyone who has an interest in underwater photos. At first, I thought it was a little pricey, but it's worth it!
Fabulous

This was a fabulous addition to our Mexico adventure. We bought this hoping we would capture a few good shots...over 400 shots and movies at depths of 70 feet. This housing is very easy and simple to use. My only suggestions are...get a red filter (everything looks blue the deeper you go), and use the little silica bags to stop fogging. Sometimes the lens area would fog due to battery heat. Simple fix. This is a must have for underwater photos. A GREAT BUY.
too big and cumbersom

Reviewer: P. Li,
I ended up sending this back. The picture didn't do the article justice. The housing is HUGE!!!! Imagine your camera with the lens completely extended. Well, that's how large the housing is. It stays that way (at least the camera retracts back). I have one of these underwater housing for my little canon elf and I thought it would be great to get this for my G9. But this is WAY WAY too big. Only a professional would want to tug this along to the beach. Not me!!!
My Favorite Camera Accessory Ever
Review Date: April 15, 2009
Reviewer: B. Sewell, Atlanta, GA USA
As someone who is an avid hobbyist photographer, I specifically purchased a G9 with buying this underwater housing in mind. I was a little apprehensive at first because I've suffered a camera loss at the hands of other ziploc-like underwater camera protectors. I shouldn't have worried. I bought the additional weights as suggested in another review and got myself a velcro closure wrist strap and everything went swimmingly. I love the fact that all of the G9's manual settings are readily available, and I also appreciate the presets for times when I am too excited or distracted to worry about settings. I always thought of the bright yellow neck strap as an annoyance and knotted it on the side, until my husband forgot to fasten the wrist strap and dropped the camera onto the ocean floor on a scuba trip. Lucky for him, the bright strap floated up and made the camera visible in the murky depths.
I have had at least twenty people on various beaches and boats ask me where I got the housing and camera and to see my pictures. The G9 is a real powerhouse as far as point and shoots go, and this is the perfect accessory. I have had to replace the seal on the housing once, but that is to be expected since it's been heavily used for two years. The seals are not hard to find and order. If you enjoy photography and you love the ocean like our family does, this is a must have accessory.
Fantastic case, worth the $$$

I recently purchased this for a snorkeling trip to Grand Cayman. It was fantastic! All of the controls were operable underwater but I recommend setting the underwater function prior to going into the water as it is difficult to see the setting underwater. I ended up taking more pictures underwater than above ground. Absolutely airtight. I did not end up purchasing the weights as I only used this for snorkeling and had no issues with it floating away. Highly recommended, can't wait to use it again!
