Do you have any tips for setting up the white balance and other features so that I can just point and shoot, or is it just play around until I find the best settings for myself which could take a while Thanks Lee Hi Calvin

Not a bad deal if you ask me :) Even if it doesnt have 110 megapixels and 3D images or a projector. My previous camera an Exilim z55 does also wonders but couldnt find the proper housing at the proper price :( I found a second hand housing for about 50$ and I got a second hand camera to fit it for another 50$ the exilim s500.

What you should do is consider picking up the new Casio EX-H10 w/ underwater housing. That combo will be fantastic! The EWC-80 is no longer in production.

However, I'm just starting to think that a wide angle lens would be a nice addition. Do you have any thoughts on how I might be able to add a wide angle lens? Jon Hi Calvin,

However, I would still consider others, such as the compact cameras from Canon. You can read about these cameras and compare them by visiting <a href="http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/timeline.asp?start=2007" rel="nofollow">DPReview</a>. If you find a camera that interests you, visit that manufacturer's web site to see if they make an underwater housing for that model. Most housings for compact cameras run $200-300. Best of luck to you, and enjoy your time in Belize, it's a wonderful country. Calvin Hi Shannon,

I've been reading great things about this camera for underwater photos. The pictures you have are amazing! My boyfriend and I are going diving with whale sharks in Belize in May and want to invest in a good digital camera, such as this, that works well underwater and above the surface, not a true underwater camera. Since you originally wrote about this more than a year ago, do you still recommend it or is there something else that has come along? Any advice you have would be great! Thanks! Hi!
