 Easy to use August 21, 2010
SierraSarah (San Diego, California United States)
The canon has a standard feel with its buttons. Once you get used to the S90 and all its buttons and features, this housing is very easy to use. The buttons are big enough. There is enough room for a moisture muncher. It performs well!Sealife Small Moisture muncher 10 capsules, 1.5 grams each
 Good inexpensive housing August 20, 2010

Well built, easy to use and I had no problem getting around the lack of a rear wheel. Major complaint, however, is that the housing does not readily adapt to a fiber optic connection...you have to sort of invent and jury-rig. The camera will also not TTL in manual. What were they thinking???
Great case, but no rear wheel access August 16, 2010
J. Nelson (Southern California)
Other reviewers have noted that this waterproof case provides access to all control input on the S90, except for the rotation of the rear control wheel. While many of the features that can be invoked by the rear control wheel can be accessed in other ways, there are some features that _require_ rear wheel access, and that you should be aware of before enclosing the camera.
For example, on land, I had toyed with the video mode, where turning the rear wheel cycles between the three video options - standard, color accent, and color replacement. Without realizing it, I had left it on the color accent mode. After enclosing the camera in the case and taking into the water, I turned the mode-selection knob to video, and was stuck in color accent mode. I couldn't find a way to the video back to standard mode, no matter what menus I looked in.
Just an FYI - before the camera goes into the case, be sure to adjust the rear-wheel-controlled-settings to where you want them, because you can't replicate all the functionality of that wheel with the controls accessible through the case.
Otherwise, a great case, and highly recommended.

I had an olympus 770UZ and its case (don't remember the name); I was used to the bulky, big and uncomfortable housing; whenever I went underwater I was in "christmas tree" mode, with that huge thing.
The Canon case is wonderful!!! I use it for snorkeling and it's not bulky at all.
All the command but the ring in the back are accessible, but it's not that of a trouble, I usually leave the aperture at 2 and use the front ring for exposure control, but this is just my opinion. The only *negative* thing that I can say is that there is no front cap and I am trying to find a solution to that.
For the other aspects, I am more more more than satisfied. I am actually planning to buy a spare one!
Great add on for S90 July 22, 2010

I used the housing to make several movies and pictures in the swimming pool with the kids and they love the results as much as I do. The build quality seems very good to me, and even the operation all of the camera's features (except for the dial on the back of the camera, which is not a real issue to me) is extremely easy.
The lens glass is coated and my first impression is that it does not loose a lot of light compared to regular camera shots without the housing. Also water drips of easily from the coating, so out of water pictures are hardly disturbed by water drops on the housing lens.
I have not tested the housing to depth and I did not plan to do so. I just want to use it for swimming pool/beach use or snorkeling at max. And for that it is a lot of fun and adding an extra dimension to making pictures.
Regarding the price, it is difficult to say if it is really worth it. I can imagine that for snorkeling or diving this is a very good and price worthy alternative to more professional and more expensive solutions. For beach and swimming pool use it is a lot of money, but for me personally I have great new type of pictures and videos of my kids now that I normally would never have. My kids love watching them. So for me - in terms of creating new type of memories - it is definitely worth it and the housing is a cool thing to have.
