Default Re: Camera for the yak?

The camera was the Pentax Optio W30. Water Rat & I both bought it and I love it. It is waterproof to 10 feet and takes some pretty cool underwater photos and video.

Search on-line, I think I paid $230 and it came with a 500MB memory card thrown in. I also bought 2 additional batteries and a 2GB memory card as the camera goes thru batteries pretty quick. The videos and photos (2MB each) take up alot of space so go with something large 1-2GB minimum on the memory card. Search on-line for the best deals on these too.

One word of caution, it sinks like a rock so if you use it in the yak, tether it or put a float on it!
