My vote is definitely Canon is you go point and shoot. I have the D10 as well and its great although a little bulky. This is great for snorkelling. Get a Canon plus case for deeper.

I would stay away from the Olympus based on my experience. Both mine and two other friends failed. (we all had the expensive one rated for 35' or whatever it was). Olympus do have the following pros':
They are sleek, have metal housing, good interface, amazing led for macro.

Cons: poor picture quality due to the "lens" not being lens and it periscopes onto a mirror then to lens. Not good in low light due to tiny lens, metal Case corrodes even when faithfully cleaned in freshwater after use. The motorized "lens" cover breaks, you have use stupid Olympus memory cards verses SD, poor warrentee support...

Hmm, that was a bit of an anti Olympus rant... Sorry
