With any housing it would be wise to test it prior to diving with it.

RAW is time consuming but worth it, and not that tough to learn. Just get out and start trying different stuff... only way to figure it out!:mrgreen:

Always watch for stray hairs and fibers on the seal.

I have a canon case for my A650IS, and its only been down to 20 feet or so snorkeling, but i highly recomend them over as others have said a zip lock bag.

My canon case has been down 100ft on some occasions but typically 60-80ft max on numerous dives. I also often lend it to friends and family who use it diving as well. Never had an issue, but I grease the o-ring every trip.

any example photo's? I'm trying to compare image quality.

I just dug out my old G7 camera that I should have taken to a camera shop to get looked at. One day it just quit turning on. Push the power button and nothing happens. Nothing happened to it. Anyone know if by chance there is an easy fix to this problem??? :lol:

Hmm, I didn't know Canon housings had any issues. I'm not aware of DicaPac having any issues either though. Hehe

I'm a cheap @$$, I've never bought a camera new. I always buy them off Kijiji because I'm also very good at killing them. I will look for the software.

raw can be no different than using jpeg if you buy a image program that can deal with it nativly. I use photo shop and it upens and edits raw the same way as it does a jpeg then you just save it as a jpeg. now I imagine if I did all manual corections it might be a little different but I find the auto corect is more than good enough for 99.9% of pictures.

Thanks Steve, I've heard Photoshop is good for RAW, but I don't have Photoshop. :(
