What is a good underwater point-and-shoot camera? good underwater strobe for point-and-shoot? I have decided to get into underwater photography and would like to know whats a good point-and-shoot camera to start with? I was thinking more of the prosumer types that allow for manual settings.

Need help choosing an underwater camera housing for scuba diving? I am going scuba diving in a month and need to take some underwater photos. I am considering buying a hard plastic case for a digital camera which run around $250. Or I am thinking about trying these soft plastic cases that run around $30. Has anyone used either of these before? Did the photos turn out okay? I will be going in shallow water, probably no deeper than 60 feet. Do you think I need an extra flash to take good pictures? Thanks.
Where can I get a reasonably cheap digital underwater camera? I'm looking for a compact digital underwater camera to take in the pool and in the sea while on holiday.

I have a lovely Leica compact camera but even thought I could buy a case that says it's "waterproof" it's going nowhere near any sort of water! Any ideas?

I would like to replace it with a decent digital camera but don't want to spend a lot because it would just be for snapshot quality stuff. My other digital camera is a Nikon D40x, so I don't need this one to be fancy , just a little, but reliable underwater digital camera. Any recommendations?

Anyone ever used an underwater camera case? My husband wants one of these underwater camera cases for our digital camera. Now it says it's waterproof up to 33 ft and it says it doesn't blur the camera lens so that your pictures turn out great. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7615196528&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT If that link doesn't work, it's a WP500 camera case. Obviously the brochure selling it is GOING to say all that. In the past we've always used the underwater cameras and they tend to be fine but he is a man and this is a cool gadget. But have you ever used one? Worth it or pictures still look like a disposable underwater camera? Did your camera get ruined? We have a water resistant case for our I-pod which has to go on the cruise. I'm fine with that b/c I don't go that close to the pool to begin with. But this will be going underwater with us...so I'm a little hesitant. Anyone?

(Don't have a car, would need toget there by taxi/bus)

I'm just trying to take pictures of like people, not plants or fish or anything, & in a pool.

Do you think it's worth the $ to get an underwater digital camera? What about an underwater case? I am looking to buy a digital camera, but the underwater one is another $150 (compared to the other cameras I was looking at). Do you think it's worth it? I also found this accessory, which I could buy later as an add on. http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/oima_underwaterStylus.asp At the moment, I probably buy an underwater disposable camera about once a year. However, if I had one, I would probably use it more often. I'm not a diver or anything, but we do spend a bit of time in the pool and on the beach (two places I worry about my camera). What are your thoughts?

Can you zoom and change camera settings underwater? I'm planning on getting the Canon Digital IXUS 870 IS and its casing for underwater photography. Problem is, can I change the camera settings (i.e. switch to macro mode, turn off flash) and zoom in on my shots when the camera is in its waterproof case? If I can't, I'm considering Sony's Cybershot T700, with touchscreen. Will they be easier to operate underwater?
Underwater Camera Case for Canon Powershot S2 IS?
