Canon WP-DC56 Reviews

Looks rugged and perfect for keeping camera dry.

This waterproof camera case for the Canon PowerShot G1X Mark III looks rugged and should protect it from water damage(I have to repair my camera due to it being out in the rain.). The only issue was FedEx left it at the wrong address which thankfully is a short walk from my residence.

Replacement O ring now available.

Don's negative review about the lack of replacement O ring was one year prior to my review. In researching this product there seems to be a replacement O ring available now for about $16: Canon Spare O-Ring for Canon WP-DC56 Housing Mfr# SOR-DC56. I always carry a replacement O ring for my current camera housing. I have not purchased these Canon products yet therefore neutral 3 star rating.

Does this housing have a viewfinder or must you use the screen?
Asked by: Gail
There is no Eye cup accessory included with the Canon WP-DC56 Waterproof Case for PowerShot G1 X Mark III however, the viewfinder space on the housing is completely clear and won't affect the sensor on the camera view finder allowing you to switch back and forth between viewfinder and LCD.

What strobe kit can be use with this housing? And the type of connection.

The SeaLife Sea Dragon Digital Underwater Flash Head with Flex-Connect Grip and Tray, BH # SESDF would be a compatible flash unit to consider, which can sync with any camera which has a built in flash like the G1X Mark III. https://bhpho.to/3p9NeSq
