I currently own the DC800 and am looking to get something new. I like Sealife but the burst mode is way to slow. Most of my photos come out blurry.

So I am looking for a digital camera that has an underwater mode, has a high Frame Per Second and obviously takes great photos underwater. I don't really want to get into the DSLR's since the housing are $1,200 alone.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I have been reading reviews for the past two weeks but would like input from the people who actually use them.

Thank you everyone and happy diving.

Well i use the Intova IC 800 8.0MP and i have the Intova Slave Flash 2000 and the other stuff which is not necessary if you do not buy the flash. I spent over $1,000.00 at the dive shop on camera stuff alone i love this camera i have taken some amazing pictures which i added in! I am going to sell my IC800 even thought its outdated and buy a IC12 the new Intova IC12 is a 12MP Camera lol should come out by the end of June.
