I have a Canon PowerShot SX20 IS that is fantastic for land photos, but the housing for it is jaw-dropping, and I am not sure it would be all that great for photos underwater (got it for the Zoom!).
so I am looking for something that would be relatively inexpensive (no more than $500) but flexible. The two routes I can go would seem to be a waterproof point& shoot, or a decent p&s with a housing.
I'd like to be able to use the camera above and below the water. We only dive occasionally (no deeper than 60ft usually), and are happy enough renting a camera do use for this.
Mostly I'd like it to work well for snorkeling, while still delivering good land shots.
I'm currently looking at the Canon PowerShot D10 and the Olympus Tough TG-610 (or 310).
I'd appreciate any feedback from those with experience.
