I was reading about both snorkel gear and underwater cameras, and there are so many choose from. I was hoping for some real people advice.While your here... any advice on trips to Maui would be great too! Thanks (I WILL choose the best answer!)
Answer
You can buy a decent snorkel set from Sam's Club or Costco. Yes, we have both wholesale retailers on the island of Oahu. You can get snorkels, goggles and fins for around $50-$60 (as a set). There are also a lot of places that rent snorkels, but I wouldn't trust them. If you plan to buy snorkels, etc. here, I would suggest either wholesale retailer. We also have Sports Authority (overpriced) and a shop called McCully Bike & Sporting Good. Whatever you do ... avoid buying sporting goods in Waikiki. Waikiki is one large tourist trap. Venture a little further and you'll save a lot.
Also, if you are on the island of Oahu, try snorkeling at Hanauma Bay on the east side of the island. I don't know too much about digital cameras, but Kodak just came out with the Kodak Playsport Digital Camcorder and it has some pretty rave reviews. The other plus, it's only $150 + or - a few bucks, and it is waterproof up to 10 feet deep.
I don't know too much about Maui. It's sad, but we islanders don't always travel far. I heard they have a rope course where you can jet down the valley. Another touristy options...visiting Haleakala. Sorry I can't help much in this department.

What is the best camera I can get for 300$?

What is most important to me is focus. You know the pictures, of let's say, a flower, and the flower is very sharp, but the background is very blurry? I'd like to MANUALLY choose what part of my photo is in focus instead of letting the camera do it automatically :). Megapixel-wise, I'm thinking around 8? But that's not necessairy.
I live in Canada so I do mean 300$, Canadian! I'd also like to get it from Best Buy or Costco, if possible. Thank you in advanced!
