Hi there
I'm wanting to buy an underwater camera in the next couple of days. I'm in the UK and I'm looking at 3 different models at the moment, The Sealife DC800 for £310, The Canon Ixus with Housing WP-DC23 for £350, and the Fuji F100fd with housing WP-FXF100 for £330. I'm looking at these as I want a simple Point and Shoot camera that will take good photo's, without having to learn all the settings and technical details. I appreciate they may have more functionality if I wanted it in the future though.
I know the Canon and the Fuji both have an "underwater" setting, which I assume adjusts the aperture and other settings for the light conditions? Does this make them on par with ones specifically designed for underwater use like the sealife?
I'm struggling to find reviews on the canon and the fuji for the underwater side - lots of reviews for land but I have a separate camera for that, so i would only ever use this camera underwater.
Any advice you can give me?
Thanks!
