I have an Intova. Different model to the one you are looking at (C600), but I've had some nice quality pics from it; it's a reasonable entry level underwater camera. I agree with the summary of the weak flash- other problem with the flash is, when you are taking macro shots, the casing over the lens actually obscures part of the flash, leading to shadows. My flash is slightly to the left of the lens, the CP9's looks right above the lens, so this might solve the problem? Also, there is no manual white balance, so expect wide angles to come out looking blue. I'm never going to win any prizes with it, but it's light, easy to dive with, and I get enough nice shots of what is 'down there' to be able to show off to the family back home! There are some pics from it on my photo gallery.
