So i've finally got my hands on my Canon A610 and the WP-DC90 housing.
First impressions -
- Camera is well built, great lcd, very intuitive and quite easy to work with.
- Even with the stock 16 SD card it's responsive in regards to reviewing and taking pictures, haven't tried out the video functions yet though.
-Lots of manual options and room for me to expand creatively with it.
-Nice focus/AF light?, lag time from shot to shot is quite bearable, certainly sub second even with the flash enabled.
- 4x optical zoom comes in handy when framing shots.
As to the housing (WP-DC90), my first impressions were that it is rather brightly colored, we're talking kids toys color here 
.
Plus side is that I can never foresee myself misplacing it.
All functions are accessible with the Canon housing.
Housing ships with a diffuser plate and LCD hood which I thought were a nice touch.
Also ships with a pint sized tube of silicon grease, lots of straps and dangly bits, o-ring is a bright yellow, notice a trend here?
I also appreciated the fairly comprehensive manual that shipped with the housing, it's a nice complement to Canon's Bebit Underwater photography webpages.
Anyway won't have a chance to dive with it until January, but for now i'm ecstatic and quite happy to join the u/w photography club :14:.
Examples of shots that i've taken topside with it...
