underwater camera suggestions?

[jaymz]

Im off to Sharm El Sheik in june for a week and am looking for a good quality underwater camera that can survive 20m worth of diving and staying under the £100 mark.

Would also be great if this one could be attatched to my gun when spearfishing in the UK.

Any suggestions?

For that sorta money I think you might be better hireing one when you get there. see if the dive center can do a deal .you will get a up to date camera and houseing possibly a Fuji or canon with no worrys about getting it damaged with water penatration .you will soon find out how easy /hard it is to get some good pics they will pop them on a disc or cheep memory card for you.don't go blowing big bucks till you really know you won't to take it further.if your not good on dry land with cameras then you may find things ten times harder under water.fun tho!

Take a look and see what's available second hand on ebay and then look up some reviews of them. Most cameras will attach to a speargun as they usually have threaded hole for attaching equipment to.

If you do get one, I'd suggest looking up some underwater photography "how to's", the first time I went underwater with a camera, I took a pile of crap photos.

For that I can't think of anything better than the "classic" GoPro or the new Intova Sport HD ($199 in amazon).

I have read so far happy reviews about the Intova, not sure if it performs well for still photography.
