Anyone know where I can get a spare/replacement O-ring for this camera's underwater housing?
Direct from cannon. They are like $8 a piece I think last time I ordered some.

Anyone know where I can get a spare/replacement O-ring for this camera's underwater housing?
Just picked up the Canon PowerShot A570IS at Office Depot for $119 today. Mgr saw me looking it ($179 on price tag) and told me she thought she just saw it on her manual markdown sheet. Sure enough it was $119 new in box or $99 for the display unit. Underwater housing is on the way from Amazon. Now I just need for figure out how to use it before my Western Carib. cruise next weekend.
I'd like to thank everyone who contributed to this thread and especially Diver85. I went ahead and bought the A570 and housing this morning from Amazon. I'm also just about to purchase everything else recommended here like the batteries, charger, and media storage.
One last thing I need though is a carrying case. I am going on vacation and I want to put my investment into something that will protect it since I probably won't be taking it as carry on since I will have my regular land camera.
Anyone have a recommendation for a carryin case that will hold the camera, hosuing, batteries, charger et al?
Thanks
