waterproof cameras worth it image
AbeLincoln
We are going on a Caribean cruise. We want to take underwater pictures of our snorkeling adventures. We have the choice of buying lots of disposable underwater cameras or buy one decent real digital camera. Is the image quality of a real digital camera worth the $250 vs buying several $12 disposable cameras? Basically how good are underwater disposable cameras?
Answer
I would rather trust my memories to a good quality camera in the $300 price range than to some "Made In China" disposable camera that might work - or not - and cost you those special memories.
IMO you should consider investing in the Olympus Stylus 770 SW camera. Shockproof to a 5 foot drop, waterproof to 33 feet. This is a camera you can use for years to come and never have to worry about it.
A quick perusal of Yahoo! Shopping found it at Abes of Maine for $299.99, at Monitor Outlet, Inc. for $323.99, at Amazon.com Marketplace for $316.77.
Olympus offers several models of their SW line so you might want to do a comparison of the features and benefits of them before making a decision.

Should I get a waterproof camera?

I already have a great camera that is not waterproof, but I think it would be great to get a waterproof camera. I don't go to the beach or pool that much, but I do sometimes, and every year I go to Vermont where I swim in the lake. I found a waterproof camera on amazon for pretty cheap. Do you think it would be worth it to buy a waterproof camera or should I just use my non waterproof one?
Answer
it depends on 1. how much you use your camera, and 2. if you can replace the camera with it. also, what price is the camera, is it higher or lower than the original cameras price or is it being sold for the same amount. you could also use an alternative like a plastic bag or a plastic casing, or if you have the know how just make your own plastic case, although the plastic bag i wouldn't suggest since the bag can accidentally get opened. it all comes down to if you will use it, if you wont use it, then it wouldn't be worth it, if you will use it, i would say, get it, and if you do find a picture you want to take but you don't come back to that place often, it would be a good idea for that one time underwater shot.
