Single Use Underwater Camera
I bought a new underwater camera today and its single use, but it looks just like a disposable camera with a special plastic cover on it its a kodak sport camera meant for outdoor use only and its single use (like I just said) anyway I was wondering if anyone knew how to take a picture on it, because I am really confused on how to use it (sorry im always a bit slow with these things :/) heres a picture of it: also I was wondering if anyone knows if I can take the camera out of the case and put a new one in, like another one of the sport cameras, or a different camera, like a digital one? Thanks so much, all answers appreciated x. From what I can tell… The waterproof single use cameras are NOT designed for diving, but for occational use where water my get on the camera. I buy a few when I raft down the river each spring. They are cheap and do not get water logged. I have never seen a single use camera that was good to 1m or even . 3m
Vivitar Underwater Camera
I was thinking of getting a Vivitar 8. 1MP Underwater Digital Camera, but I was wondering does it work out of the water, since summer is coming to an end I won't be in my pool, or beach anymore. So I wanted to know if I could use it when I'm not going to be in the water, when I'm going to be inside or something. Is it a good camera? Thanks. I think I found an answer. Yes, you can use it when you're not going to be in the water. It's an okay camera. Olympus has the best reputation. Here is a comparison of waterproof cameras:

Underwater Camera Filters
I have an underwater camera and have used it on 3 diving holidays but all my pictures are always very blue and not as colourful as things really are. I've heard of red filters you can get but what do you use, software, technique etc. After looking around, I learned — There is nothing wrong with your camera. After about 2 meters there is a noticeable loss of red light penetrating the water. This is why you may have noticed that pro underwater photographers have flash units attaced to their cameras. Activate the flash on your camera to flash on every shot . . There is probably too much light for it to do it in the automatic flash mode. A red filter will do nothing but give you red photos instead of blue/green (cyan) ones If there is little red in your original image, there is little any software can do . . Although this is true of all software . . It really cannot "fix" anything . . Only advanced Photoshop wizards can sometimes do that.
