Underwater camera stuff

Does anyone know if the CoolPix 8700 has an underwater housing? It's a larger-than-usual camera. I'm not sure there is a housing for it.

Ikelite used to make a really good housing for this camera, but it is discontinued. You might have some luck on eBay or Amazon with it. One advantage to this housing is that you can use a TTL strobe with it, which will drastically improve the quality of underwater pictures (although it will drastically increase the price)

Something that I feel is very neat about the Olympus cameras is that they can do movies underwater. It isn't as good as a land camera but DOES give a feel for what snorkeling is all about. The max depth is 33 feet.

 

You can even hear me breathing.
