It works 
It works, and my canon sd1000 is small enough that it even floats.
It makes me feel much better about taking my camera to the lake (though for the cost of the case I have to wonder if I wouldn't have been better off buying a cheap camera and putting it in a zip-lock bag).
Sealing mechanism is a single zip-lock style zipper at the end of a flap. The flap gets rolled up and covered by a larger flap that closes with velcro. I would feel a little better about the case if the manufacturer had employed a double-zipper design, but the single-zipper design gets the job done.
The water in most Oklahoma lakes is not clear enough to make taking underwater photos a possibility, though I think I would be comfortable taking my camera 5-10 feet under water in this waterproof case.
Protected camera perfectly, but hard to operate controls
I used the case for our recent trip to Niagara Falls. The camera was in the case for all of the attractions in and around the falls. We were standing in pouring water and the case did not leak. Several times I loaded and removed the camera from the case (to download pictures). The case held up very well.
My only complaint was that it was impossible to work the controls, e.g. change shooting mode, zoom, etc. As such, I had to keep the camera on automatic and at wide angle.
Overall, well worth the money.
Met expectations 
I read all the reviews before I bought this item and decided it wasn't worth the risk to submerge it under water at any point, regardless of the "tissue test." That said, I bought it to protect my new camera from sand, rain, etc. on a recent trip to Costa Rica. It added peace of mind when I used the camera and performed just as I hoped. As mentioned in other reviews, be sure to line the lens up before taking any pictures as you'll find a black corner in your pictures from the case otherwise.
All in all, worth the money for what it is, and go in with lowered expectations.
Good for the Price
this case works very well. however, your camera will probably slide around inside of it and, therefore, your pictures/videos might contain the circular outline of the zoom protector.
all in all, this is a good product for the money. good investment if you're looking for something simple to protect your camera underwater.
Great, Works but one vacation use only 
I purchased this more than a year ago for a one week vacation. Tested the unit before leaving and it appeared to work fine. My wife and I where ruthless with the camera and the pack. It was placed in the unit and sealed in the morning, used all day while snorkeling, getting taken out constantly for better land based shots then finally the bag was cleaned and dried over night for the next day. After the first 2 days the seam started to break up at the top where the unit rolls up. I was extra carefull when sealing but continued to use the unit. By the last day of the trip water was slowly getting in a few drops at a time. It still worked but I was constantly checking. On the trip back I checked the unit out completely. The edge seals where comming apart, it would not have survived another day without camera damage.
I still loved this product think it worked fantasticly but it only works for 1 vacation then its dumpster material. It did convince me to purchase a $200 canon underwater case for the sd800 for our next vacation. I do not regret buying this. There is no way I would have purchased a more expensive case before using the WP100 for a solid week. Underwater photography is a real blast even if you only snorkel. The only reason not to buy this is if you are ready to get one of the high end hard cases for a couple hundred.
