DRY PAK Camera Case, $11.94 (c/0 SwimOutlet.com) featuring Canon Powershot S100
Do you have any upcoming summer adventures that involve water? If so, check out this waterproof camera case. You can still take photos through the optical bag, and I would advise when you pack it to keep it in another bag so it doesn’t scratch the bag. Also, it FLOATS! You can also use it for phones, and GPS devices.
However, this is a great smart phone option for $11.94 – it floats as well.
This waterproof camera case is great to bring to the beach – keeping out sand and dust and sealing out water and splash parks, marine parks (I’m thinking about Sea World in Vallejo). It comes with an adjustable strap which you can wear around your neck as well. It can be submerged, however it isn’t recommended to go to depths greater than 30 feet (in which case if you’re that type of swimmer, I applaud you).
I wish I had known about it sooner, it would have come in handy last summer when I went kayaking down the Russian River in Northern California.
We were given waterproof bags but they were rather large and also not see-thru so I’m looking forward to upcoming water activities without worrying about my camera. I use the Canon Powershot S100.
Happy summer adventures!

Thursday, May 21, 2015 at 10:12 AMHow cool and convenient! I wish I had one of those when I went on a trip to my Puerto Rico a few years ago. We went on a sailboat from the main island to one of the smaller surrounding islands, and when we had to get off the sailboat to get to the shore, we had to walk on like 4 feet of water, so you can imagine… I had to raise my arm high so that I won’t wet my camera lol. Good thing one of the sailboat crew gave me a ziploc bag lol, but still I wasn’t too confident with it. Now I have a small Nikon waterproof camera for these type of situations, and to shoot silly images under water. :D
