I want to purchase a water proof camera/video recorder for the cruise... Do any of you have one that you love/hate? And why? Can they be used for scuba diving? Thanks friends!
Whatever you get, make sure you get a floating wrist wrap. If you let go of the camera by accident, depending how deep you are you'll have a hard time getting it back...
I had planned to buy a waterproof camera/camcorder, but after reading many reviews, I couldn't find one that I really thought would be great, so I purchased a waterproof camera bag from amazon for about $20. The sell various sizes and it worked really well for us. Just be sure to read the instructions because it tells you how to test the bag to make sure you're getting a proper seal. A nice cheap alternative to a pricey waterproof camera.

It does float, by the way.

I got a Nikon Coolpix S30 at Target (currently on sale for $79.99). Takes really nice underwater photos or video, and actually takes fabulous 'normal' photos & video. The only issue I've had with it was that the LCD screen was a little hard to see in some low-light underwater conditions.
