I saw that as well and thought what the heck, and bought one. The store i went to had none but were very helpful and looked up all the stores that had them in stock. There were still quite a few floating around vic last week if anyone did decide they wanted one you still might be able to get your hands on one. Im happy to try and recall some of the stores that had them if anyone wants to know.

Actually kinda lucky i bought it, cos on the first trip out with it i fell over in the water trouting, and it got a bit wetg. Dont think it wouldve been enough to harm my other camera, but still was good not having to worry about it. Obviously still trying to learn how to work it, but here are some shots some sunday. A bit blurry, but really what can you expect. All im hoping is that it can take good macro shots.

Underwater photography is the process of taking photographs while under water. It is usually done while scuba diving, but can be done while snorkeling or swimming.
Underwater imaging is considered an especially challenging area of photography, since it requires very specialized equipment and techniques to be successful. Despite these challenges, it offers the possibility of many exciting and rare photographic opportunities. Animals such as fish and marine mammals are the most common subjects, but photographers also pursue shipwrecks, submerged cave systems, underwater "landscapes", and portraits of fellow divers.

Thanks,
