What would be the best waterproof camera that has recording abilities, also, for traveling overseas a lot?

Gabrielle

I need a camera that isn't too hefty, takes good quality pictures and videos, and is waterproof. I am doing a lot of traveling soon and would like to be able to make a short film about it afterwards.

Answer
You are asking too much of a single camera and we do not know your budget

You can buy an underwater camera (10m) with a built-in GPS for under $350

But for shooting video, you really need a video camera

What is the best waterproof digital camera?

Laura

My family is going on a cruise in July and we would like to purchase a waterproof digital camera. It will be used to take underwater pictures in the pool and the beach but as well as a regular camera capturing sunsets and family pictures. I don't want to take 2 cameras on the cruise so I want the camera to be good at both. I'm not looking to spend more than $350 so that eliminates some top of the line cameras. I am a scuba diver however I realize that most cameras only go to about 30 feet or something like that. So If you guys could help me out and give me input on what to buy that would be great! Thank you!

Answer
Here are two.

Nikon Coolpix S30, under $120 and Nikon Coolpix UW100, under $350 (it has a built-in GPS)
