DiCAPac WP-410 Outdoor- / Underwater Case (Electronics)

Customer Review

As already described, my predecessor had WP-400 ruined by a leaky seam on the penultimate Schnorcheltag my Ixus 60. Since I was no longer in a hurry for the new housing, I had to revert to the DiCaPac.
Possibly the successor WP-410 has been reinforced in the material. How else can the unbearable fumbling above, the zoom switch on the camera, which sounds are unmistakable on the video clips to explain? I had not in the predecessor. And with water temperatures of up to 31 ° C! The response of the material at 20 ° C and below, Imagine!
The new, additional 2 Velcro is in my opinion totally unnecessary, because not the opening of the bag is the weak point, but the seams. On the seam above has been omitted, although the operation of the camera has been difficult.
For me, the following applies: max. 70 uses, anything beyond is to take risks.

How right I was with my considerations, was confirmed on 17.7.2011, during a snorkeling gear, outdoors, on the outer reef. When bitten, I have my new IXUS course never simply slid into the bag, but she put on a bright, narrow strips of hard rubber. That was my luck! My custom and regular inspection look into the bag revealed a water break and only the rubber strip is due to that it did not cause a short circuit immediately. With the camera in a bag on his head I snorkeled back to kilometers, which I "only" lame arms prepared, but saved my camera.
I have checked the bag and allow to run full of water. As the water level rose over the additional Velcro, ran up the left smallest droplets from and to the bag shut. The outermost end of the Velcro strip Einpressstelle had come loose, a tiny hole was created, through which the water could seep slowly while snorkeling.
As I said, rather than to manufacture the bag as smooth as possible, possibly add a second, good Zip, received the bag a predestined for fatigue, because pressed Velcro, which is of course always under tension. That must really not be!

Photo Walser informed me on 22.7.2011 that the WP-410 is withdrawn and refund the purchase price + postage. That has now been done. Thanks for this!
