Actually works!
I was somewhat skeptical and the pouch sat in my closet for many months. But on a recent trip to Cancun, we went out on a motorboat excursion and fortunately I had placed my camera (a Canon Powershot SD950 IS) in my pouch. We got caught in an unexpected downpour in the open seas, unfortunately. If not for this pouch, my camera would have gotten completely drenched along with the rest of my belongings. I was also surprised that the zoom feature of my camera was still workable (the product description said it wouldn't work# but I think if you have enough room left in the pouch, the zoom has enough space to move out, so if in doubt about sizing, err on the size of larger, rather than smaller. Also, be really careful when opening your pouch. The pouch is not supposed to allow water to enter when fully sealed, but I noticed that when you do open it, water droplets do enter and any condensation trapped inside your pouch can easily short circuit your electronic devices. Save the dessicant enclosed with your pouch bc it can help to dry it out if you should get any moisture inside. In fact, opening it upside down on top of a bed or something #to catch your camera) might be a good idea to keep water from going in when you are unsealing it. Also, happy to note that my iphone was operable inside it. Overall, great product and I will buy more!

Aquapac
By far a great investment for capturing moments that normally would be hard to get without this product. I used it on our vacation to Play Del Carmen Mexico. I was able to carry my camera into the beach as well as a local water park and was able to capture quality pics. I had a lot of people asking me what my pouch was. I strongly recommend it if you have a slim digital camera, as it might give a few problems with a thick camera if you have a zoom lens. I plan on using it on every trip that might involve water.

Too small for a Konica Minolta digital camera, otherwise looks good
