Waterproof Camera?

I wonder what kind of project you got up your sleeve besides snorkeling. Have you considered the GoPro HD Hero cam?

i have the olympus tough 6020. i love it! my only two complaints are that is the veiwing screen in very small, and to me many photos look blurry on that screen that actually are not blurry. and the battery life is short.

You can build a waterproof casing for the camera.. I think I saw it on youtube once.

I would definately do the go pro

gopro hands down

What is it for? Sea life make good camera but they are scuba good, not sure if you need to go that deep.
Eta my brain is not working today, if you dive at all while snorkeling I would look at scuba cameras like the sea life.

The GoPro mount seems pretty cool, image quality doesn't look that bad either. Waterproof to 60m! The others were one just 30m.

My fiancee has the Sony DSC-TX10 and it's pretty phenomenal for a point n shoot. Waterproof to 16 feet, drop "proof", dust proof n all that jazz.

IMO, for what she wanted (tough, compact, quality images, dunking camera into reef tank but not for deep sea diving) it's much better than most of it's "tough" camera competition and it doesn't look like a fisher-price so people take you a little more seriously when you are out and about.

Haha I could totally rock a fisher-price camera

TY for all the suggests, I'll have to do a little more research, but it'll most likely come down to whichever's I find a good deal on slickdeals, lol.

i am the user of sony DSC-TX 10. ITS waterproof upto 16 feet, it is dust proof and its drop proof. it has brilliant picture quality and i would suggest to have this series of sony

I was looking into the gopro myself, the only problem is that there's no screen so you can't review your shots or videos until you connect it to a computer. unless of course you buy the screen attachment

Personally, I think it is worth the investment for a GoPro, even though there is no LCD. I plan on upgrading to the LCD and I also plan on getting the skeleton case so I can have better audio. The audio is great for sports and stuff, but if people are talking, it isn't the best.

Personally, I like the Canon Powershot G series with their waterproof cases. Cases run ~250, camera ~ 450. Definitely good value for the type of camera and capabilities, especially since I already had the camera. They are also good for video. A friend has a gopro and love it, plus they are cheaper.

I'm not sure why all the suggestions for the GoPro. Is everyone into extreme sports? In my opinion, you will be much happier having a camera with a screen. I suggest spending some time at http://www.dpreview.com/. There is plenty of information and they cover just about every camera ever made...except the GoPro.

Have had several of the Olympus, great! Cameras! they will take a beating to
