Are you planning a trip this summer that includes water? Anything from swimming pools to ocean water counts! If you are considering a trip that comes close to water then think about a underwater and/or water proof camera!
Many of my friends have ruined their regular digital camera getting it to close to water, even just moisture in the air has ruined some of the regular cameras. With that in mind you might want to consider a underwater/water proof camera!
You don’t have to be at the beach, in fact if your summer vacation includes any place that rains, and when you want to capture photos in the rain you might want to pack a camera that is water proof like some cameras that can 
be used in the rain and under-water too!
One camera you might want to consider is the Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP (10 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom).
No longer do you need to worry about damaging your camera in less than optimum shooting conditions, go ahead and shot in rain.
The FinePix Z33WP ensures you’ll never miss capturing any of life’s precious moments, any where, any time, under any conditions! The FinePix Z33WP is ready for any adventure including underwater activity up to 10 feet!
Another under-water/water proof camera:
You might want to think about this camera too! Canon PowerShot D10 (12.1 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch LCD).
For those with a taste for adventure, there’s a camera as bold as the active life you lead.
It’s the Canon PowerShot D10. This camera is waterproof, freeze-proof and shockproof! 
A camera that is tough enough to take what you dish-out even when your the conditions for taking the photos are tough. Plus it’s got all the high performance features you expect from a Canon digital camera.
You’ve got 12.1 megapixels of resolution plus all of Canon’s powerful, state of the art imaging technologies so you can capture your epic experiences in breathtaking color and awesome detail.
Use an underwater case:
Another thing you might consider is instead of a underwater camera, get a case that covers your regular camera and protects it from the water like the Underwater Case for the Following Canon Powershot – (DiCAPac WP-410).
Protect your Canon PowerShot digital camera while swimming or snorkeling with the DiCAPac WP-410 underwater camera case. 
This case offers a guaranteed waterproof performance up to 16 meters deep, the case is perfect for anyone who wants to take pictures of tropical fish, coral, and other underwater wonders.
The transparent, flexible case is made of thick, high-grade vinyl, with a UV-coated polycarbonate lens cover that allows customers to take clear pictures in virtually any conditions.
Plus, the case has a unbreakable lens cover and is coated with three layers–a UV coating, a scratch-resistant coating, and a water-repellent coating–so your camera lens stays safe in almost any environment. 
Best of all, the Roll & Velcro zipper closure system offers two levels of protection to keep your case completely watertight, to help protect your digital Canon PowerShot camera .
Whether you’re shooting in a downpour or photographing a shrimp from an underwater vantage point, the Water-Proof case steps to the plate and helps you get the shot, using your regular camera.
As a bonus, the camera case floats on water should you accidentally drop it from a boat.
Do you have a different type of camera?
If you have a different type of camera, then check to see if your specific type and brand of camera also has a special underwater/waterproof case made to protect it! You can start by searching at Amazon.com for your type of camera case.
Get a Disposable Underwater Camera:
Another way to go is to get a Disposable Underwater Camera, they are cheap – but only good for one time use!
There are lots of brands out there – here is one: Fujifilm Quick Snap Waterproof 35mm Single Use Camera. Buy one or even a 5 pack, to save money, and give one to each of your family members!
This all-weather camera is ready for anything. It’s ideal for shooting outdoors in wet and snowy conditions, and even operates up to 35 feet underwater!
This Disposable Under-water Camera comes pre-loaded with Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 800 35mm film, and has a larger-sized shutter release for easy operation.

Read this Story: Summer Adventures in Cancun, Under-Water Cameras, & Beach-Inspired Supplies! by Denise Bell
My family is looking forward to a long anticipated vacation to Cancun Mexico. We have planned and saved for a couple of years, not really knowing if we would be able to reach our goal to get there as a family before my oldest son graduates high school. Well, we applied for our passports last year so that we would have them if that terrific deal on airline tickets ever happened to come up at the same time there were openings at the resort where we have a time share in Cancun. We have had some luck, and these two criteria came about one night as my husband searched the internet for the deal of a lifetime. So he booked the trip and we are set to leave in about a week.
One of the first things that I thought of as a mother was that the pictures I take on this trip will be the key to savoring this trip of a life time, well, for a life time. I know that most of our vacation will be spent playing on the beach and in the water. I suspect that we will do a lot of snorkeling and maybe even go on a couple of guided tours where we will see some sensational 
underwater life and I will want to take magnificent pictures, but I didn’t really have any idea what kind of a camera to take with me or how to get the best results underwater. I started investigating this information on the internet and discovered that it was not easy to find information that will benefit a beginning underwater photographer. I can’t imagine that I am alone in the fact that this may be our only experience as a family of this type. I don’t want to invest in expensive camera equipment and/or training. So, it took some digging but I finally found a web site that gave me, a beginner, realistic ideas that will help me take terrific pictures on our water based vacation. The web site is: http://www.roseindia.net/articles/disposable-underwater-cameras.page
This site suggested purchasing an all-weather camera that is ideal for shooting outdoors in any terrain. It states that this type of camera is not only waterproof, but weatherproof. So this is perfect for the beach or a day on the slopes. Most of these cameras are between $6 and $20. Not a bad price either.
I thought that the basics were good for me and I hope that it might come in handy for your summer vacations and get-aways too. I will let you know how my underwater vacation pictures turn out.
In the meantime, I made sure to get some Digital Scrapbooking Supplies so I could be all ready to scrap my photos using a kit that will coordinate with our adventure when we get back home. I chose the Fun At The Sea Digital Scrapbooking kit for its gorgeous beach-inspired pages. I think it will look great with our Cancun trip! You should try the Fun At The Sea Kit for all your tropical, summer activities this year too! Snapping photos is one thing, but creating a full-featured, Digital Scrapbooking Album of my family and our Cancun festivities is much better! I can’t wait to scrap all the fun! Wish me luck on our vacation!
Happy Traveling and Happy Scrapping,
-Denise
