I need something like this for canoe trips. Although the camera won't be submerged, I still want it protected from water and other elements. I am looking forward to hearing about your review on this.

Cheaper than a camera and shows up water ingress immediately.<br /><br />Also for the Ewa-marine - the newer BXP range is for the big cameras (D2,D3 type).

I had the same problem: the housing was to big for my D40 and the lens was loose - I always had to adjust it. I returned the Dicapac - I will create a new post on this topic soon.

I use a smaller version of the dicapac for my surf shots from the water and some other stuff pretty successfully too. You can check em out here if you'd like:<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/haniamir/sets/72157603169366588/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/haniamir/sets/72157603169366588/</a><br />It was pretty sturdy but make sure you check it regularly for leaks. Mine faces a lot of abuse in the surf and its okay except for some breaking near the outer lip. A lot of water can get in if I accidentally open the velcro; easy to get away with for a P&S but I don't think a DSLR will be that lucky. I've heard that the Ewa marine bags are of a better quality and last longer though. I've been lusting after a housing for my D70s for ages. That Ewa marine bag is what I'll probably end up getting. The "real" housings all seem to cost a fortune! Hope it worked out! I use a smaller version of the dicapac for my surf shots from the water and some other stuff pretty successfully too.

It is the same price (almost) in B&H. Thanks. I did not see that listing because I was filtering for US$. It is the same price (almost) in B&H. Thanks.
