The underwater camera used

A number of people have mentioned that they are impressed at the quality of my underwater videos and photos, and have asked for the brand + model of the camera used.

I use the Pentax Optio w80.
It's a point-and-shoot camera, with pretty good specs for it's price.
I mainly got the camera, for it's "sporty" features, such as shockproof and sandproof. The underwater part is really a bonus. =)

You can get the camera online at places like Amazon:

sadly, the camera comes in red, blue, in silver. no pink. =(

Product Features
  • 12.1-megapixel resolution image sensor captures enough detail for photo-quality 13 x 19-inch prints
  • Coldproof design endures sub-freezing temperatures of 14 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Widescreen, HD movie capture that records resolutions up to 1280 x 720 pixels at full-speed 30fps
  • 2.5-inch LCD monitor; Pixel Track Shake Reduction (SR) ensures sharp images in any lighting condition
