Customer Reviews

So Glad I bought it!
I was looking for ages to try and find a decent digital camera as lots of the others seem to lose the picture quality due to the waterproofing. This camera, however is fantastic. I took it to Portugal and used it both in the pool and in the sea and got excellent photos. It also has the other great cannon features and they don't seem compromised at all by waterproofing - my favourite is colour accent.

The long and short of it - excellent picture quality, very easy to use and fabulous to be able to take underwater proper, non blurry pics. It is a little big doesn't quite fit in a pocket- but still smaller than getting a normal digital and putting on a plastic case.

great camera but...
This is a solid camera and takes great pictures both in and out of the water. The intelligent settings selection system works well when you just put the camera on auto, as it generally does a good job of assessing lighting levels and the type of shot you are trying to achieve. Equally it seems there is good scope to control things manually and choose your own settings, although I have not done so much of this yet.

The one big annoyance (and reason this product dropped a star) is that this is a camera designed for the outdoors type who wants to be able to use it in any weather, or doing outdoors sports and activities etc. If you want to do this, the supplied wrist strap is inadequate; you will want to buy the seperately available carabiner strap. I could only find 2 suppliers in the UK, and neither hold stock. The cost of just this one strap is around £40 including postage - £40!? Come on Canon you can't really claim that is value for money! Or you can buy the kit with the alternative faces and a couple of straps and pay a massive £100.

So this is a great camera, just let down by the additional costs incurred to use the camera in the way it was designed.

Great Little Camera
Having had 5 different Compact Waterproof Cameras now, (Olympus & Pentax) which for the price do a great job, you are always left wanting by the picture quality!!
Not with the Canon D10 though. The quality is great. I'm sure the experts will find something to criticize, but for a go virtually anywhere compact, this will take some beating. Without doubt I get better photos from my 40d, but I cant go in the water with the kids with that!!
One slight complaint I cannot find a spare Strap Mount yet, I don't need all the kit just a mount, but thats a small worry. I have been quoted for one but they are on back order at the moment.Well done Canon for yet another winner.
