Looking to buy an underwater camera

[narellem]

Hi there, have just finished my 100th dive after 12 years and looking to buy a simple camera that's easy to handle underwater and will take decent photos.

Have been recommended I look at Intova IC14, Sealife DC1400 or maybe the GoPro.
Have a Nikkon DSLR for above ground - but not taking that underwater.
While I enjoy diving I probably only do about 10 dives a year, so it would be good to get a small camera I can use above ground as well.

Any recommendations?

Thanks
Narelle

I just bought one and love the sealife. The gopro seemed a bit overrated for what it was. I have a ton of pics and vids on my blog, check them out. the camera is easy to use and easy to carry when diving
