You can find dodgy brand waterproof digital cameras but then again you would be compromising on picture quality. Waterproof cases on the other hand are limited and quite expensive ( at least 100 GBP ) . Check if there is a waterproof case for your existing camera and order it from the NET , if not you will have to look at the available cases first then buy a camera for the case.
Thanks for all the information umit
Picture-quality is low priority as it will serve only to record what we see for later identification purposes and to avoid accusations of "Fisherman's Tales" ... not for publication purposes.
I was quite impressed with a cheap non-digital one we had back in the UK ... but the volume of "snaps" my son takes, means digital would quickly prove more economical.
I'll have a look around the shops (if they are not shut on Thursday due to another pagan festival
) and let you know my take.
