Underwater Camera Housings

What is the BEST underwater digital camera for under $200 dollars?

I've been looking FOREVER and CANNOT find anything that I'm positively sure will be worth the money! I need a camera that can take video and photos underwater, but nothing over $200. Help? I need it for taking pictures while snorkeling, I'll likely use it for Humpback Whales, Dolphins, and Reef Fish. Something sturdy and that will not break easily.

  1. olympus do good underwater digital cameras,i think it was an mj 800 model.cant be certain,but it was about £180 about 6 months ago so it should have come down in price now.sorry i dont know how much that is in dollars
  2. Try Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP 10 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom.Waterproof up to 10 feet
  3. I love my pentax optio, bought it about 4 yrs ago, has been beaten, dropped, in water likely more than out, super easy to use and takes awesome pictures. I have never bought another to compare it to but this is a tough little camera and the dropping and rough handling has not affected its photo quality. I think I paid 300 ish 4 years ago...
