I want to be able to take pictures when i am on my Jet ski etc. My price range is under $300 but i can't seem to find one. They are all too buldgy or just not nice looking. This is for a teenager so please help me if you have any suggestions. Thanks!
Answer
You presently have 5 choices. The Canon Powershot D10, the Fujifilm Finepix Z33WP, the Olympus Stylus Tough 8000, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 and the Pentax Optio W60.
The D10 ($330) and the Tough 8000 $400), have the best depth ratings, 33 feet. The Pentax is good to 13 feet, the other two are only go to 10'.
The Finepix is the cheapest, $200, and tie's with the D10 for cool looking! (The D10, has interchangable face plates)
The Pentax has the widest zoom range, 5x, but only is 10 mpx, vs, 12 for all the others but the Fine pix which is also 10.
The Pentax and Panasonic record video at 720p.(1280 x 720) The othere 3 at 640x480.
If I were you, I'd chose either the Olympus or the Canon, based in the fact they are probably more water and shock proof.
In your case probably the Canon, it's only $30 more than you want to spend.

Places to buy an underwater camera?
Farahhien
I enjoy scuba diving quite a lot, and I've always wanted to be able to capture everything I see on picture or video.
I'm not sure of any places in and around Vancouver that sell underwater cameras though. If anyone could help me that would be great.
Answer
A number of companies make underwater cameras. SeaLife, Sea & Sea, Ikelite and Nikonos.
And these companies make "real" under water cameras, with depth ratings much greater than any of the "waterproof" camera's that Canon, Pentax, and Olympus make.
Another option you have is to buy an underwater housing for your camera, or if you don't already own a camera, buy one and get a housing. Canon makes housings good to 160' for many of there models, and Ikelite, make even better, more expensive housings for Canon, and other brands!
Sorry, I can't help you for Vancouver, but any of the companies I lisred with ship there! As will B&H, the second link!
