Where to start?

Hello Everyone!

Well I am looking for a fairly inexpensive point and shoot that will do well under water. It seems as though there is a huge Canon following with the S90 seeming to be the choice. When looking for a camera that will perform well under water what should I be looking for? Something with a close focus range? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Although a little out of my price range especially with the housing Sony's NEX-3 looks good. The reason I mention that is I own a Minolta SLR camera so the lens will be interchangeable...

For a P&S, look @ the S90 or 95....

whatever you buy must have RAW... the s90/95 has RAW. The Canon housing is pretty decent if you take care of it and check the O-ring properly. Also a wide lens is good 28mm is the minimum, 24mm would be better.
