You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
To take along on a conoeing trip, just in case I fall in! (ie not for underwater photography but able to resist a quick dunk)
Something not too expensive, point and shoot, decent pic quality half decent zoom
Failing that any totally waterproof iphone 4 cases?
I use an Aquapac with a few sillica gels in and normal camera.
I have left it in bouyancy aid pocket down this:

It does leak *slightly* on very wet days - hence the sillica gel.
I have uber cheap camera (£22 Nikon S220 from Jessops clearance), and a more expensive Ricoh. On really iffy days / likely swims etc I pop it in my 'grab' drybag as well on deck or under seat (In a spec boat or open canoe).
The Ricoh gets way better shots than any waterproof P&S I have seen.
With case on (I can tell cos a couple have the case in the shot!):

I just bought a kodak playsport x5 from Amazon £75 plus a 32gb card and remote £100 all in. ill be taking it skiing next week. Seems to have good reviews, up there with gopro etc for picture quality.
Can't really recommend it, as I haven't used it in anger yet, but I bought a Fuji XR20 from Jessops for £79 at the weekend...

Image quality is OK, not great. Not tried dunking it yet though.
