Olympus Underwater Camera

Which statement? I own an Olympus underwater snorkle camera (they market the housing for a reason by the way), a Panasonic TZ-1 with an underwater housing (nice camera though the sensor in that doesn’t compare to the Canons, I wanted a point-and-shoot with that range and bout the underwater housing afterwards

— loaned it to one of my correspondents who did a nice cover shot out at Weeki Wachee for a local altermative weekly) a Sealife Reefmaster Mini (which has better O-rings than either Olympus but I still wouldn’t want to take it to the 40 meter depth manufacturers claim) one of the photographers at our newspaper owns a Powershot 70 and 60 (can’t remember which one he uses with an underwater housing) and another photographer has the “dive” version of the Olympus underwater camera.

Judging from real life use of all those, I’d go with the Canon then the Panasonic then the Olympuses.
