Hey Doug,

I'm a fan of not carrying a very expensive camera on the water. Too many
times, your camera will be getting wet which makes me reluctant to carry a
very expensive camera.

I've been using a Pentax Optio W20 waterproof camera and I'm very satisfied
with it. I noticed the current W30 model is available on Ebay for $220 and
$10 US shipping to my location. Not a bad price for a camera that you can
keep in a pocket of your PFD. The picture that I had published by SK
Magazine, in December's "Last Glance" was taken with my W20 set on idiot
mode.
