I am trying to find the instructions for the canon wp-dc38 housing work-around to change shutter speed in full manual mode - it involved pushing two buttons at once and then..?? If you know how to do this, I would so appreciate instructions - I've searched high and low and cannot find them... One is the shortcut button, but I don't know the other.

thanks!
 
maybe this is it? found with a little googling

The Canon WP-DC35 (WP-DC38) does not have a rear control dial. So it appears that you cannot adjust the camera's rear control ring when it is in the housing. But there is a way to do it that works perfectly fine underwater. First you push and hold down the "S" button on the back of the camera, then either push the left or right side of the control ring buttons, and that will adjust your rear control dial settings. It takes a little getting used to, but becomes easy. I push and hold the button down with my right hand thumb, and press the adjustment buttons below with my left hand thumb.
 
Perfect, Sean. Thanks. I had seen this a couple weeks ago, and though i think i'm a good googler, I absolutely could not find it again. This works and just what I needed! Thanks again.
