could a use the olympus stylus 790SW to go scuba diving?

steven d asked:


or would that just be good for more shallow water..?

obviously the olympus 770sw goes 33ft and the 790 only 10ft, but would it damage the 790 if i brought the camera more than 10 ft down?

how far does scuba diving usually go, lets say on a average dive in hawaii somewhere?

    Yes, the 790 SW is only good to 3 meters.

    The Olympus Stylus 770 SW is good to 10 meters, much closer to the maximum depth you will be descending.

    The Nikonos on the other hand has a limit of 50 meters. It is however a 35mm camera.

    I’d recommend the Olympus Stylus 770 SW they have the best prices here on all cameras

    It could damage the camera if you take it deeper than 10ft. If you want to go deeper Olympus has an underwater housing that will let you take the camera deeper.
