Nice addtion to the camera
|
| I bought the WP-DC17 along with the Canon SD-870 to take on my vacation to Maui. I originally thought about just purchasing a waterproof/shockproof camera, but didn't like the idea of having just "average" picture quality that those cameras output. The Canon housing is well made and having all camera buttons accessible from the housing is brilliant. The SC-870 is easy to drop in / take out and once the housing latch is closed, it's difficult for it to accidentally pop open. A drop of the included silicon grease around the O-ring helps keep the water out. I used it for kayaking, snorkeling, and snuba taking pictures and movies in and out of water. I didn't really get a chance to test the flash diffuser, which snaps on and off, as the choppy waves were stirring up sand and silt which reflected the flash light as an ugly glare. Perhaps in calmer waters. I saw other Canon WP housing on older SD cameras owned by Hawaiian locals while on the snorkel/snuba boat. This is probably a good indicator to the quality of the housing. |
