Canon WP-DC28 Waterproof Case for Canon PowerShot G10 Digital Cameras

For PowerShot G10 Digital Camera
Customer Review: Works as advertised.
I am a complete novice when it comes to underwater photography - not above water though... So I had the G10 and was going to Belize on vacation for sun and fun and snorcheling. I decided to buy this case as it actually seemed quite reasonable for what it offers. Let's get to it. I will list the cons first. * The plastic of the case is rather soft, so even though I only went on three snorcheling trips with it, I ended up with a ton of scratches on it, and I WAS trying to be very careful. * The plastic of the case - and across the display - is very glossy. So when you are snorcheling close to the surface and the sun is shining, you can barely see anything on the display, it is just reflecting the brightness of the sea surface above you. I assume this would not be as much of a problem if you are scuba diving and further down in the water. * Being spoiled from the ability to change just about any setting on this camera while it is in its case, it is a shame you can't manipulate the ring control in the back which changes aperture or shutter speed depending on which mode you are in. Neutral: * The flash works surprisingly well under water, however just for very short distances. It is also very close to the lens so that if the water is not perfectly clear, it will light up every dirt molecule and render the picture worthless. * The case is surprisingly large. Originally I thought this might be a nice combo for the beach or in general maybe in the rain - but the case is about the size of a Canon XTi with a 18-55mm lens on it and really too large to casually carry with you to the beach etc... Also, at a beach in the sand I would be very worried again about scratching the plastic. * You should know your camera well because the labels on the buttons are just stamped into the clear plastic and you really can't decipher them under water. Positives: * Just about everything else. The case is easy to use and all the buttons are accessible (except the ring as I mentioned). The case is completely waterproof, I didn't have one hint of water inside it. I did take it down to about 25 feet a few times. I really enjoyed taking my G10 under water. It looks like I will keep my G10 for a long time since I don't think I will buy another underwater case anytime soon. The G10/WP-DC28 combo will be my underwater kit for the extended future... I read a lot of reviews and tips and ended up buying a few silica gel packs from Ebay (very cheap) in order to keep possible fogging in the case to a minimum. I never tried the case without the packs, so I don't know if fogging would have been a problem, but with a pack, I never saw any fogging. I'm not a big fan of RAW with point and shoots, so I used JPG and the underwater setting of the G10. This was a pretty good combo, and I didn't have to do a lot of color correcting in Photoshop. I could imagine that if you go deeper, RAW would become more of a necessity to get the colors right. I also took some videos under water, and they came out quite nice. All in all, I would highly recommend this underwater case despite the few issues it has. I will upload a few pictures of the case and the photos I have taken.
Customer Review: water proof case oh yeah
This case is pretty much awesome, it allows me to take shots of my buddys while we're surfing, i can take pics when snorkeling, and also when I'm commercial fishing I can have my camera ready on deck with out worrying that its going to get ruined. The only thing that i can say negative about it is that when in a selected scene mode you can not change between scene modes because there is no dial.


People who travel for business or pleasure usually find their road trips to be fun and exciting. If you are packing for such a trip, you might find yourself zipping your good make up into plastic bags and throwing it in your large suitcases with your clothing. While it may seem a carefree way to pack, you will not feel so laid back when your clothing is damaged and your make up is ruined. Beauty cases offer a solution.

When choosing beauty cases for your make up and personal products, look for cases that are well made to stand up to the demands of travel. The most durable kinds are usually box-shaped train cases. Locking clasps will ensure that no one touches your cosmetics unless you want them to do so. A sturdy handle is important so that you can easily carry the beauty case without dropping its contents.

Another thing to look for when choosing beauty cases is the size you want. Some people only have a little make up to bring along. For them, a very small, plain cube with about a 7 inch by 7 inch base would be ideal. They could bring everything along without carrying more than they needed.

However, you may want the maximum storage space for your cosmetics if you are an actor, a model, you are going on a long trip, or you simply like to carry a lot of make up. If this is the case, you can get all kinds of beauty cases to do the job. There are beauty cases with slide out drawers and fold out trays. Some of them even have movable dividers. There are rolling beauty cases that are as large as carry on luggage at about 14 inches wide, 9 inches deep, and 27 inches tall. People who carry these make up cases are prepared for any adventure.

Probably the least important consideration for most people buying beauty cases is the outward appearance. Many people prefer basic black. However, you might like to get something different than the standard color. There are dotted, stripped, and clear cases to choose. These cases are certainly more festive, and can put you in a vacationing mood.

Choosing beauty cases can be fun and easy. Just look for the qualities that are most important to you and you cannot go wrong. When you find the right make up case for the job, you will be ready to begin your adventures.
