I have been a fan of many canon cameras and continue to happily use non-water proof canon cameras. HOWEVER, I have purchased 4 working used Canon D10 cameras and they have all FAILED after one or two times of use!! Usually they fail during the actual use in the water. I am not deep and the doors are securely fastened. I will never buy another Canon underwater camera!

My wife went snorkeling for the first time in Hawaii and the fish were so colorful we wanted to capture and re-live the feeling with a quality underwater camera. I love all the features of the camera and the versatility of being able to use it also as a land camera. Picture and video quality is fantastic. It has the same features as a land camera so the learning curve is virtually nil. I recommend getting a couple of extra memory cards and definitely a backup battery with all the zooming you will do. One feature I would change on the camera is adding rubber grip strips where your fingers hold the camera. I am looking into adding something myself so I have a better grip on the camera underwater.
We bought this camera for a trip to Oahu. Primarily to take underwater photos of turtles and tropical fish. It gets the job done as well as other offerings in the same category. I used it at depths as great as 42 feet though it is rated for only 10 meters or 33 feet. The competition generally being rated to only 10 feet. I rated it four stars because the autofocus is a bit slow and the frame rate is limited to about a shot every few seconds. Generally if shooting in a surge current I found it a good idea to shoot a dozen images to get two or three keepers. Image quality was great on the surface and good underwater. Images on the surface suffered from the small lens diameter if there was a few drops of water clinging to the lens cover. You will not generally be able to get National Geographic quality underwater images but will be able to rival postcards occasionally.Read full review
This model is superior to the newest version of it. The shape is so much nicer to hold and to look at and the lens situated in the centre front is much better placed than near the top corner as many similar cameras - no chance of accidentally putting a finger in the way when taking underwater or action shots! This is a fantastic little waterproof camera which has a large number of settings for all situations and takes an excellent picture. I preferred to track down this unique model as opposed to the newer version. I have used it swimming in huge surf where it has taken quite a battering, out in the open ocean swimming with humpback whales, and snorkeling with vividly coloured tropical fish amongst coral reefs. It produces excellent colour on the underwater setting. Also very good out of the water!Read full review
