I'm off to Sardinia in a week or so and will be doing some scuba and snorkelling. I'd like to be able to take some underwater pictures, I've a Nikon D80 but I'm fairly sure I can't get a waterproof housing for it. So I've found this camera Olympus MJU 770SW, has anyone got one, and what are the images like underwater ??

Underwater case should (fingers crossed) be arriving tomorrow as I'm off to sharm diving on Thurs. -
The D80 does have a housing for around 1300 quid wheras the whole setup for the Olympus is about 400 quid.Originally posted by n5gooner View PostI'm off to Sardinia in a week or so and will be doing some scuba and snorkelling.

Not used either but if you are trying out underwater photography for the 1st time then the camera is not the critical factor.
I've used an early cybershot for around 6 years and the results are pretty good.
Real underwater photography is ubergeekdom and needs deep pockets so ideal for contractors really

Agreed, getting the bl00dy fish to stay still whilst you faff around to untangle your camera from your regs only to get back on the boat to see that you managed to take a pic of it's tail and the end of someones fin.Originally posted by Rantor View PostNot used either but if you are trying out underwater photography for the 1st time then the camera is not the critical factor.
