" ... Also hard to keep in the zoom lens. ... "
" ... I bought 2 of these, the first one was just barely too small for my point & shoot (Canon PowerShot SX130). ... Even turning the camera on is often problematic, if the lens touches the side of the lens tube when you turn the camera on or when you are trying to use the zoom, the camera will shut off. ... The camera shutting down when the lens makes contact with the Dicapac makes it nearly impossible to get the camera lens properly seated onto the Dicapac's glass lens cover. ... Because not having the lens pressed up against the glass will have a negative affect on the image quality. ... Perhaps more importantly though, the bezel of the Dicapac's glass lens cover will be visible in the photo! ... When I needed to get a quick shot on the water, I missed some when the camera shut down on startup (lens touched) and the ones I did manage to get were often blurry (lens not properly seated against lens cover glass) and had as much as 50% of the photo taken up by the Dicapac's lens tube (black area with a curved edge). ... Often it's just a corner or side of the picture where you can see the curve of the Dicapac's lens cover, but even they can be difficult to crop without losing the important part of the picture. ... Particularly anywhere I had just wiped a water droplet off the Dicapac's glass lens cover. ... "
" ... The case is too tight, and the lens opening will not accommodate my zoom lens. ... "
" ... The lens compartment may not align with your camera's body. ... "
" ... It did not fit nikon s300. ... It keept jamming on a lens and shutting camera down even with largest extension. ... "
" ... Numerous times when I turned the camera on, the lens would hit the side of the lens opening and retract causing the camera to turn off. ... Also, as mentioned in other posts, the lens would not be centered in the lens opening so I didn't get the full image. ... Also, after getting the front of the camera case wet, the camera would often focus on the water spots on the case's lens cover causing the picture to be out of focus. ... About noon of the second day, of the three day raft trip, the camera stopped working as the lens would not longer open. ... "
" ... At best, only a small point and shoot with very small telephoto lens fits into the case. ... "
" ... Cons: The aperture blocks part of the extended camera lens ... "

" ... Taken with a Nikon Coolpix L28 no flash and no zoom. ... "
" ... It's a little hard to zoom in and out and use the camera buttons when it's in here but better safe than sorry. ... "
" ... The lens extender is handy for zoom, but I generally didn't use it because I preferred to take photos at the widest angle. ... "
" ... Taking pictures was harder than I remembered (especially trying to zoom). ... "
" ... Also, waterproof cameras don't have much of a zoom function either, meaning you're not getting the short end of the zoom deal by choosing this case. ... "
" ... Already tried it out, easily control the camera through the bladder even zoom and flash. ... "
" ... I solved this by unscrewing the cap to take pictures, this also solved the zoom problem. ... "
