WTB: Underwater camera or housing - 02-24-2010, 02:32 PM


I'm looking for a reasonably inexpensive but reliable camera that will take decent pictures underwater while doing some snorkeling in Hawaii in a couple of weeks.

Alternatively, if you have an underwater housing (not sure what you call them) that would work for my Fuji S9199 or Canan SD1000 that could work as well.

And if you only have suggestions about what to get, I'd appreciate that as well.

Thanks.

I'd highly recommend getting the underwater housing for your SD1000. It's a great investment and you won't be disappointed. And if anything goes wrong, you won't lose much since the camera is about as expensive as the case :P

Amazon currently has it for $170 .

I got one for my powershot A620 and took great pictures of the fish and coral in hawaii. I can show you some pictures if you want.
