I'm looking into getting a digital camera setup for use on land as well as underwater. Does anyone have any experience with the Canon S40 or S30 cameras? Canon also makes an underwater case for these cameras, the WP-DC300. I know a lot of people on this board tend to favor the Olympus C-3030 or C-4040 with their housing but the main reason why I'm straying from these is because of the SmartMedia memory type they use. (I'm thinking about getting an Compaq iPAQ which can use the CompactFlash and I don't want to have to buy two different types of memory). Does anyone have any experience with these Canon options? They are supposed to do well in low light, although I couldn't find anything about connection points for external strobes. I want to make sure I'm not dismissing the Olympus options too soon. Thanks.
