or at 8megapixels the Olympus Stylus 810

Seems to be only mainly Pentax + Olympus putting in any effort at truly waterproof cameras that don't NEED seperate protective covers....... there's a list of reviews of what else is available here:

I also reckon the DSLR suggestions probably wouldn't be the wisest choice for going surfing with, as not only would they get in the way and bug the hell out of you, but SLR's tend to be rather heavy and could cause you to end up drowning if you end up falling off the board with it hanging round ur neck weighing you down.

Does anyone know have any accessories for a waterproof camera?

heyo

I have an olympus 770sw, i would like to use it in the surf more unfortunately i have not been able to find anything that allows easy use and so that it is secure as it would be really annoying and expensive to lose.

I am looking for something that has greater strength than the provided lanyard.
Any suggestions or other methods to suit my purpose would be great.
Thankyou in advanced
i have seen those and have looked on the olympus website but there is nothing secure that you can attach to your body

Answer
It might be possible to adapt a standard camera strap - the kind that loops back and then goes through a "buckle" to secure it.

Take a look at this one on eBay - Item # 120231920685 or check at your local camera store.
