Olympus Camera Underwater

Underwater camera manufacturers are now offering affordable housings for their cameras. Although housings can cost up to $5000, there are some good lower end options. Olympus offers a very affordable underwater digital camera and an inexpensive housing to fit it. The Olympus FE-360 is a great inexpensive pocket camera, and when combined with the Olympus PT-044 housing is an exceptional combination for the price.

A more rugged designed underwater camera is the Olympus Stylus Tough 8000. Like the name implies, it certainly is tough, as it is shock proof from a drop of 6.6 feet and can be used up to a maximum depth of 30 feet underwater. Beyond this depth visibility for a photograph may be very limited anyhow, so you could say that this camera is very high spec. The camera is also freeze-proof up to -10C. Like most devices in this class, it has a wide angle lens. Best of all, the camera is priced at just under $250, which is slightly less than most of its competitors.
