It's truly a revelation to find that the stuff one saw in Jacues Cousteau documents is there for anyone to see in so many places. Underwater camera equipment can be quite pricey so the only way was to convince everyone you wanted to share the experience with to join you in the water. I found this Korean product just browsing the web after our last trip to Thailand - these can be had for less than 20 euros e.g. on German eBay.After this first trip using DiCaPac, I am truly sold on this little invention. It's would be worth the price just for the moisture protection for canoeing or longboat trips, but the fact that you can also take a normal digicam snorkeling or scuba diving (at least in relatively small depths) makes this a true bargain.
