What waterproof camera to buy?

[outacontrol]

I am looking or thinking about buying a new small (pocket size) point and shoot camera for going on holidays. So I was thinking it sure would be cool to get a waterproof one. Any suggestions?

I have one too and have taken it on a couple of wet vacations. It is also very handy to dunk into the tank and take in tank photos and videos

Almost bought an Olympus myself but got this one instead (edged out the Olympus in a couple areas): http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/co...&modelid=18332

Been all over the world with me already, recommended for up to 5m, I've had it deeper

Hey how's it going. What setting's are you using to get fair-good quality in tank photo's? I've got the same camera, but it's real tough to get any good color or in-focus shot's. I've played around with it quite a bit. I did get some sweet shot's and video diving in the Dominican, (Boring Diving)max depth on dive was 48' for 32 min. No problems with the camera, apparently there is a case you can get for it to go deeper. I was nervous @ that depth, but kept filming anyway to keep up with the group.
