[Paddlewise] camera housing

http://tinyurl.com/bmt5y
is a waterproof housing for a Canon Digital Ixus 700 (known by a different
name in the United States).

I was thinking it would be a nice way to protect my camera while kayaking.

But then I was wondering, "how does it keep the lens dry?"

Then it became obvious that it probably doesn't.  It expects you to be fully
dry or fully submerged, not a mix of the two.  Consequently I figure the
lens is always going to be distorted with drops of water or dried salts,
etc.

So I guess this equipment is totally pointless for a kayaker?
