Last week I got my new DC800 camera. Awesome camera. The pictures I got from it were great. I like the different water, WB settings and the housing. Also the macro and infinite pushbutton controls are great for switching back and forth when in the water. I also like the fact that the battery in the camera lasts for several dives and all the pictures I took with flash on. The buttons on the underwater housing are also easy to use underwater and with gloves on and also fits nicely in my bc pocket when I am not using it underwater.
The one thing I don't like is the LCD view goes blank when taking a picture. Not a big deal if I am stable underwater but if hovering and it is surging it can be a bit difficult to keep the scene you want centered.
All in all I really like the DC800 and the couple times I have been in the water with it have been great.
