I recently purchased the waterproof Nikon Coolpix AW100. I want to buy a reliable, durable, waterproof, comfortable, secure, floatable, and most importantly STYLISH wrist strap to prevent my beautiful camera from sinking to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. The float must be able to float about 190 grams. I already own an Olympus bright orange wrist strap that floats, but it is uncomfortable, ugly!, and very loose around my wrist. Anyone out there that has any suggestion please let me know.
I was also considering using 2 straps while in the water. 1 of the loose fitting floats and 1 snug fitting non floatable strap.I know might be over kill lol but I dont care. I am going to be in the waves alot so I will definetly be getting knocked over.
These are the camera straps that I am considering buying:
1. Sony Floating Camera Strap Model number: STP-FSA
2. Chums Waterproof Camera Float
3. Leashtec Aqualeash Neoprene Wrist Strap for Waterproof and Underwater Cameras (DOES NOT FLOAT)
Please list the brands you recommend for me :)
Thanks in advance!

I would suggest that you visit your local scuba dive shops to see what they have, since a lot of divers take various cameras into the water. For example... http://www.yellowpages.com/new-york-ny/diving-equipment-supplies?g=New+York%2C+NY&q=Diving+Equipment+%26+Supplies
Here are some other choices:

about the Oregon Scientific Waterproof Digital Video Camera?
Henry S
can the mount that it comes with allow the camera to swivel? so that I can change the view while its still mounted.
if not is there a swivel mount that I can buy?
Answer
I have the Oregon Scientific ATC2K Waterproof Action Cam. It came with rubber straps, velcro straps, and mounting plate. The camera slides into the mounting plate and you can swivel it around.
