they also make some pretty nice waterproof cases that fit your camera that allows you to take underwater photos. Prolly get one the next time I get to go snorkling. Those cheap underwater cameras just didnt cut it last time.

I had one about 10 or 12 years ago, it was yellow and would take like 3 different size pics, regular, panoramic and a little bit bigger than regular. That thing was pretty undestructable. I took it with me hiking in New Mexico twice and on 2 canoe trips on the Buffalo River in Arkansas. That was by far the best camera I've ever owned, I was PO'd when I lost it. I'm gonna see if I can find the brand it was, I'm sure they still make one.

I have a yellow plastic underwater camera I got at Target last year for around $150.
It is good down to 30 ft., but I don't remember the brand name.

I've got the D10 by Canon. It's a great little camera. It's a little slow, if your trying lets say, to capture a shot of the "PINK DOLPHIN". If your just wanting to take pics of your fish and landscape as your fishing, you ain't gonna find a better camera!
