Canon WP-DC60 Underwater Housing For Canon A520 or A510
Rating: LOVE IT!!! 1/8/2007

I am a water baby, so this case will be great whenever Im skiing or swimming or diving or snorkeling, its great. I got this case the day before I left for Cozumel and Im so glad I had it for my trip. I am really wondering why and how Ive gone so long without it. First off, I love my Canon camera and this housing case was just the greatest little extra I could ever have for it. So easy to use and the pictures turned out great. A friend I went to Cozumel with bought a $30 underwater camera and all her pictures turned out with a line in them. Another woman on the trip bought a digital camera and housing case for $150 and she couldnt get it to work either. I had no problems what so ever, but when your diving you tend to leave your camera running so I went through batteries fast. I really recommend putting some money into some good batteries for your camer...not cheap ones. I didnt buy the weights for the camera and that didnt seem to make a big difference, but my A75 camera only took one weight so I took my chance without it...some cameras need more weights so if yours takes more than one Id really consider getting the weights in that case. Check out the Canon website for addl info and research, but this was the best price I found...not used. Good luck and hope this helps.

Aeris Velocity Open Heel Adjustable Strap Fins
Rating: Fintastic 1/8/2007

I love my fins, I got them the day before I left for Cozumel and thankfully they fit perfectly with my boots. I took 4 dives and went snorkeling about 3 times on my weekend trip and the fins worked great. I had hoped that they would have been a little shorter, but no biggie and it only helped me to be less fatigued by the end. The person that helped me with my order was great and patient and I will definitely order from scuba.com again. I have also just recommended scuba.com and my fins to my sister who is about to take an open water course herself.
