DJ, I notice you are a keen photographer, judging by the number of shots you post on this site. It's great to view the pics of your activities. Keep up the good work!
I was wondering what type of camera you use. Is it a waterproof one? I'm looking for something that would be suitable for my SUP and kayaking activities, which basically means it must be waterproof.
Here is one I've found.

The distributor is in NSW. Cost is around $450.

Anyone else have any ideas on this?

Pentax W30 is awesome, as is the Olympus - both 7MP water & shockproof.

Thanks John..That looks like a great camrea..and just what I need.

I use an old Canon Ixus 40 (only 4 megapixal) camera...It is very small and takes great shots.

I have a little waterproof bag that my friend Nic gave me...Thanks Nic..But I have to take it out of it every time I want to take a pic.

I also have a solid underwater case for it that I never seem to use..When I get some shots in the surf I will have to use that tho.
