Canon officially announces WP-V1 Waterproof Case

The Canon WP-V1 Waterproof Case, specifically designed for the VIXIA HF20 and VIXIA HF200, camcorders works at depths to 130ft (40m) of water. Allow your diving trips live forever in your memory with the dramatic clarity and brilliance of Canon HD video.

Waterproof Rating

The Canon WP-V1 is rated waterproof down to 130ft (40m). The same engineering excellence you expect in a Canon camcorder is found in this lightweight yet strong design. A body made from solid polycarbonate delivers high impact resistance, is lightweight, and offers the benefit of impressive clarity so you see your compatible VIXIA camcorder inside this "clear wet suit" almost as if it’s directly in your hands.

Control Features

Capturing the sharp, vivid HD video of which your compatible VIXIA camcorder is capable, even underwater, requires the ability to access its full capabilities. With the WP-V1 it’s easy. At your fingertips are direct control buttons for record start/stop, telephoto and wide zoom, photo capture and preview. Your hands stay right on the controls you need to make fast adjustments or to focus on your subject.

Easy to Handle

The Canon WP-V1 fits the VIXIA HF20 and VIXIA HF200 like the proverbial glove. Its tailored form and the approximately 2.7 lbs of total weight means no unnecessary bulk keeps you from maneuvering underwater the way you have to. The ease of handling makes the WP-V1 the ideal companion for the aquatic cinematographer.
