Answer
As far as i know the Olympus Mju 770SW is the only "out of the box" under water camera, it can go something like up to 32 feet(10m) and its got 7.1 MegaPixels

Most cameras you have to buy an addtional underwater housing so Olympus have found a good gap in the market i think.

Here a link to the camera details: http://www.sacamera.co.za/productdetail/Oly770SW

I'm not sure what it would be in dollars but im guessing about $300 - $350, either way this will be your best option i think, hope this helps.

Glad wrapping your camera also generally works :)

How can I swim with great white sharks safely?

I am going diving tomorrow in Australia and the waters around there are know for having great white sharks in them. How can I swim with them safely and observe them? I am brining an underwater camera so I can take some photos of them. I am also bringing an electric shark away device (Shark POD) just incase they become aggressive.

Here is a web site of that device -

I am going to be in open water with no cage.
It has been done before! Check this out! Divers swimming with great white sharks in open water -

Answer
This has been done before but by EXPERTS.
Notice the word.......EXPERTS !

If you are not going on an organised shark dive, the chances of you just "happening" across a Great White are extremely rare. I have been diving Australian waters for 20 years and only ever seen one and that was on an organised shark dive. ( in a cage ! )

If you are on an organised dive, you WILL be in a cage.

In other words, it ain't happnin dude !

You do not mess with a ton of very large fish with a mouth 3 foot wide full of razor sharp triangular teeth !
Take what you like with you. You won't even see a Great white coming most likely.
They usually come up from deep very fast. Too late by then mate !

From the sound of your question you are not very experienced with sharks. Or diving maybe ?

I have been diving with sharks around hundreds of times.
Grey Nurse, Hammerheads, Black tip reef sharks, Lemon sharks, etc etc etc
If there was a Carcharodon carcharias ( Great White to you ) about, I would take one action only. GET OUT !
