Hi Mates. I am thinking of getting an underwater compact for my diving trips (twice a year averagely)
What are your suggestions/experience for a casual shooter.
I am thinking of an Olympus TG-2 with an Olympus Housing. Reason I chose a TG-2 is because, since the cam is already waterproof and in an event that the case floods, the cam is still usable. I'm a little bit paranoid of flooding as i've seen 2 of my friends' Canon S100 die because their cases flooded underwater.
I've tried the TG-2 last week at TK photo and I reckon the camera is quite alright (spec wise). and the super macro function would be really helpful to photograph and macro subjects.
And also Olympus has thier own flash kits so I think it's quite a complete system? or not?
I am more worried about the quality of images. I have not used an Olympus up to now and they seem to be the less popular choice for compact cameras.
