last year at Turks, there were two of these cameras on-board (not positive if
they were exactly the same model, but they were small sony digitals with
waterproof housings).

anyhow these cameras took surprisingly good u/w photos with just the attached
built-in flash.  i was so impressed that i went out and bought the canon-elph
(can't remember model number) equivalent digital and housing.  i've always
liked canon products, and after doing a lot of research, the canon narrowly
beat out the sony, but i don't think you can go wrong with either camera...i
happen to prefer canon's media.  i'm looking forward to my first opportunity
to use it next month in cozumel...just hope oracio gets me a rinse bucket.
