Underwater digital cameras?




Book Shelf


I am looking for an underwater digital camera for use on reefs in Bermuda. Does anyone have any good suggestions? And this may seem silly but can they be used on land too? Prices would be appreciated as well.


Answer
Take a look at Canon PowerShot D10.
I've had this camera for over a year and have used it for multiple outdoor activities in a wide variety of conditions - underwater in pools, freshwater lakes, and saltwater snorkeling; as well as cold/icy/snowy conditions while skiing. It has definitely lived up to the "waterproof" claim as I haven't had a single issue with it. The image quality is great. I know this camera has a handful of one-star reviews for people claiming that it leaked on the first use and was irreparably damaged but I've had it underwater dozens of times and haven't had any issues, so my best guess is that a lot of those people didn't make sure all the seals were properly closed before going underwater (although I guess there's some chance that a percentage of the cameras are actually defective and I just got lucky).

What are some good underwater cameras?

I would like an underwater camera. One that's good and not that expensive, like the $100+ ones. Thanks.


Answer
Don't know of a good underwater camera for $100. Afraid you'll have to double your budget. Here are some underwaters reviewed.
