OrangeCallaLily Posted June 8, 2004 #1 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Wondering if anyone had any recommendations on waterproof cameras that are not the disposable type? Thanks! Renee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeCallaLily Posted June 9, 2004 Author #2 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Lol, I am replying to myself... After some searching online, I found two options for our Canon Powershot G2. I am posting these since the bags can be used with other digital cameras. I have read good things about both, and I have not heard of either leaking. Ewa-marine underwater camera bag - you can use this underwater to take photos.

sportsterjohn Posted June 10, 2004 #3 Share Posted June 10, 2004 that looks like a good idea. I already have 3 film cameras and 1 digital camera. The thought of having to buy yet another camera for diving was making me sick!

OrangeCallaLily Posted June 10, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Sportsterjohn, Decided to go with the ewa marine one, since it has the optical lens port built in the bag. We will be taking it to the beach with us in a few weeks. I will let you know how it goes! Renee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstngchk Posted June 11, 2004 #5 Share Posted June 11, 2004 wow, I had no idea there were protective bags for digital cameras for underwater use! I have used a Sealife Camera for many of my snorkeling trips. It's definitely not digital quality but I have come home with some very good pics.

SpoiledMom Posted July 2, 2004 #6 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Thanks for posting your research... my DH has been checking into this as well. He would like to "waterproof" our digital camera and digital camcorder. I think we will have a case of photo over-kill! In addition to the cameras mentioned above, we are taking 6 disposable cameras and 5 waterproof disposables. :eek: Before we leave, I am sure he will find casing to work on the camcorder... :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
