Definitely better off with the powershot series for casual UW. For the
(guessing) cost of the Ikelite housing, you can get a S45/50 and the housing.
I don't see shelling out that kind of money for a housing for anything short
of the digital rebel.

Worse, if the G3 floods, can you get a replacement?

Default digital camera for underwater?

Hello,

Are there any digital cameras for underwater photography ? how many
meters or feet they can reach? they have connection for external
stronger flash ? what is the lense aperture?

Please tell me what are good models of digital cameras for underwater
photography with and without underwater casing I mean no need of extra
housing for underwater are there any? how deep they can go ?

what about with housing digital cameras? which ones are considered
best?

thanks,

Mario
