hey everyone, i really want to get into underwater photography. i was looking on some dive sites, and i saw that you could buy cameras specially made for underwater. but i have a Canon A95 Powershot digital camera, and they make a waterproof case for it. would it be better to buy a specially made camera, or should i get the waterproof case?

I think that the case is a better investment because you can also use the a95 when on the beach, in the snow or rain without having to buy a new camera. Thats just my 2 cents, I'm a real newbie to photography.
I also have the canon A95 and I'm in the process of buying the case (need to send the money order). The cheapest place I found it was on ebay, just do a search for wp-dc50, there's a couple of ebay 'stores' who sell them.
