Hello Everyone,
Currently I have a Canon Powershot SD850 IS with a Canon WP-DC15 case. It takes surprisingly good pictures for a 8mp camera, and it's been incredibly reliable. I dive about 15-20 dives a year, primarily in the USVI. I've been thinking about upgrading to a new camera and case, but I don't really know where to start. I want something with a higher shutter speed (it's hard to track faster moving animals, and I'd like to be able to take multiple shots without the focus time) and obviously higher megapixels.
Is it worth simply buying something like a ELPH 150? Can I reuse the same case? It doesn't have a connection for an external flash, which obviously is nice after anything deeper than about 50 feet.
Or should I be looking at something like a G7X with a housing? This obviously is a more expensive decision. Does either model have an underwater filter? Do I need accessories?
Help!
