Camera for underwater shots?

^ <3 Aperture. That was a tough pic, I didn't spend too long it but I played with it to show what you can do in post production. I could have done MUCH more if I used photoshop afterwards to crop out the fish separating it from the background and then adjusted those layers individually. IMO the just get the pics IN focus and you can mess with the rest later. I never claim to be a photographer lol, just great at post prod.

Its a bit cartoonish,lol.

I found and Olympus at 42' while Scuba Diving in a lake. Took it to the surface dried it out and charged the battery it still worked. It had been down there 4 months. Never could find the owner.

I was impressed tough little camera.

Tip- Take a picture of your Name and Telephone number as the 1st shot on the camera. I've seen many cameras make it back to their owners because of this trick.

My GoPro HD2 with dive housing just went through its first underwater rounds in Bali. I'm incredibly ameteur and the camera has terribly few setting options as far as white balance and that sort of stuff. Anyhow, here is my imgur gallery and my youtube video.

Most of the video is around 30 feet deep.
also, the camera has a slow shutter so don't expect fast snaps of fast fish.
