Thanks for your reply. So a camera and underwater case without any lens or attachments would be neutrally boyant in both cases? And neither would require weights?

I just got the S90 and WP-DC35 (my first underwater camera) and it's quite positively buoyant. I will need to add weight. Though maybe when it's on a wrist strap it won't bother me so much.Thanks for your reply. So a camera and underwater case without any lens or attachments would be neutrally boyant in both cases?

Canon's home page lists how much weight kit is needed for the various models.

Yeah, not such a bother when it's on the wrist strap, although the provided strap is a little bit short.I just got the S90 and WP-DC35 (my first underwater camera) and it's quite positively buoyant. I will need to add weight. Though maybe when it's on a wrist strap it won't bother me so much.
INON WP-DC35???????? on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Check it out - looks promising, likely the best mount base INON has ever made. May cost as much as the FIX AD28 adaptor for their housing, but the Canon housing itself costs $600US less. Enough to purchase 2 or 3 of the new INON LE-550W 550 lumen wide angle (75 degree) 3 AA lights to mount on it for both video and still lighting, and maybe forgo strobe altogether.
