Hi
I used to own a canon A70 cam for 2yrs and this few days it fail on me. Sent for service and it will cos me $140.
So i decided to change a to a new cam.
1. Budget around $800
2. Camera Able to use on land and UW.
Prefer a perform better on land camera which can also take a few underwater shots
3. Power options AA batteries
4. If possible a CF card as i have a 256 CF card from my old A70
5. Ease of maintainance and support (accessibility of repair facility)
6. Accessibility of camera controls in housing
Is it too much for me to ask ??
Currently i have a few cam in mind but not sure they are able to use UW
1.Olympus C-770 Ultra Zoom
2.Panasonic DMC FZ5
3.Canon Powershot S1 IS
Maybe you guys can give me some advise on it going to SLQ to look around this weekend
