  1. options below the oly 5050

    I'm looking to buy a new digital camera, but don't want to shell out the cost of an oly 5050 which seems to be the camera of choice on all diving websites. Can anyone suggest the next-best thing? I'd get the 4040, but the housing has been discontinued.

    I want manual options, 3.2 or 4 megapixels. Does anyone have any input on canon's a70 or a80 or the s30, 40 or other?

    Also, I've seen a list of cameras owned by members of a divesite, but now I can't find it. Any ideas where that is?

  2. The Canon A-Series has no possibility to shoot RAW Format what I personaly think is one of the most Important features for UW Photography -> Post shooting White Balancing!

     

    The S-Series is very nice but I would take at least the S45 or the S50 because the older Cameras don't allow you to change Aperature in Manual Mode when inside the Housing.
