    depends on how much you want to spend but I just got a olympus tough tg-310 at staples for 129.99. Got pretty good reviews online so figured I would get it. Have taken pictures already to try it out and photos outside and inside where pretty good but haven't done the underwater test . Did put it in the sink full of water to make sure all the parts were sealed before I bring it in April and it still works.

    I bought the same camera for my vacation to Hedo a few years ago.
    As Moss68 stated, this is a fantastic camera to have around the pool or Ocean. Very durable and super cheap.
    I highly recommend the Kodak playsport. Who knew under water video could be so fun :p

    I agree...I just picked up this one at Sam's Club for $89 and it comes with the HDMI cable and floating wrist strap. Cant beat it!

    We just looked into this as well and were peaked in interest in the model you are talking about because it fits the cheap price range and we have owned the Kodak easy share(non waterproof) before, so we did some diggin. Here is what we found... now it has a flash and is 12mp and found it for $75 USD. the only bummer is it doesn't have image stabilization.

    I second Russ' recommendation. RedMistClone and I used the same one and it took more than adequate pictures for a camera I wouldn't cry over if I lost.

    It's official.... I'm spending too much time on Cancuncare. When I saw this thread I thought its title was Waterproof Underwear Camera.
