Customer Reviews

One of my favorite gadgets
This is a great product.

I bought this case a couple of days ago and tested it yesterday. I used it while scuba diving, taking it to a depth of 22m in Dosthill quarry UK. The case is rated to 40m but Dosthill isn't that deep. We did 2 dives with it for a total time of around 100 minutes. I can happily report that there was not any trace of water inside the case. The case is made of polycarbonate with double glazed glass lenses and feels very sturdy. All the buttons on the IXUS 65 are available while it's in the case and although the buttons are small I had no problem operating them with diving gloves on. With the huge screen of the IXUS 65 still fully visible in the case, I had great fun taking both pictures and video, a regular Jaques Costeau. The case would also be great for keeping your camera dry while skiing but the case does increase the camera size and probably would only just fit in a ski jacket pocket.

One note of warning the case and camera together are slightly negatively buoyant, (They'll sink) so don't drop it over the side of the boat!
