Where To Buy Disposable Underwater Camera
I Went Snorkeling In The Cayman Islands In 2006 I Took A Disposable Underwater Camera It Worked Okay But I Want To Buy A Better Reliable One Any Suggestions Where To Buy A GOOD Underwater Camera I can Review The Pictures On That Is Digital? I Am Going On Another Cruise Next YEar And Would Like To Buy One And Dont Know Where To Buy Them At. I think I found an answer. Most waterproof underwater digital cameras aren't that good of a camera. They are solid performers and built to seal out water, but the image quality is not that great compared to regular cameras. I think if you want the best images, you would have to spend some money. I would recommend buying a good point-and-shoot camera, and then buy the underwater casing for that camera. The case can sometimes be just as expensive as the camera itself. So basically you might have to spend $200 on a camera, and then spend and additional $200 on the waterproof case. You might want to look at the Canon PowerShot A720IS. I believe it sells for less about $200 at the big box retailers, and there is also an underwater case available. I've included the links below.

Olympus 770 Sw Underwater Camera
Currently there's the 1030 SW and 770 SW that are capable of a depth of 10 metres but since I go scuba diving deeper than that, I'm curious if there's a new one on the way that beats both the cameras above. You see, I want to avoid buying an underwater casing as much as I can. The reason I'm avoiding an underwater case is that 1) I don't scuba dive often enough to justify the extra cost of one and; 2) I'm looking to get a camera for myself (Currently there's only the 'family' camera to use). From what I can tell… Not that I know of. Why not get an underwater casing? A new Olympus camera will cost more than a casing for your old camera.
Fuji Disposable Underwater Camera
I'm going to Hawaii and want to get a single use underwater camera but can't find them anywhere. I see Kodak and Fuji both make one but can't find them online or in stores. Any suggestions. Well, I have your answer right here. Wait until you get to Hawaii to buy them. You will be able to find them there, because they are popular there, for obvious reasons. Also, if you buy them there, you don't have to mess with getting the unprocessed film safely through airport X-ray machines. Before you leave Hawaii, get them developed. That way, again, you don't have to worry about putting unprocessed film through the X-ray machines.
