Do not have underwater camera yet!
Spent all my savings on scuba equipment ;-)


You don't have to buy, necessarily. Just about all of the dive shops on
the Big Island rent underwater cameras.

A high-end example;

Prices run $20 to $75/day, depending upon the quality of the gear.

Or, you can get underwater cases for common digital cameras on Ebay.
If you've got a camera already, and you aren't planning on going deep, it
might be an inexpensive ($40-$50) option....

The case option distorts images a lot more than dedicated gear, though.
I'd rent dedicated underwater gear, if I were the one to choose.
