Hi, I am sorry for starting a new thread, but I can't seem to find this particular discussion. I am thinking that the fact that there is no Sony forum is indicative, but I wanted to get a variety of opinions.
In any case, I want a good quality digital camera that is easy to use...essentially point and shoot..that takes good underwater photos with minimal messing around with settings. Basically for educational use (powerpoints & websites), not professional level. I want something SMALL in its housing that can be toted around in a BC pocket or on a lanyard. So I have been checking out the Cybershot DSC-N2 which has a marine pack housing. However it has a touch screen so I am wondering how that would affect its use underwater in the housing! I'm also interested in the Canon PowerShot SD900. I think they're similarly priced and have similar specs, but that's as far as I got. If anyone out there has experience with either, or can recommend others, I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!
