Waterproof Case vs Waterproof Camera

admin — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 01:06:28 +0000

For a lot of folks, this is the dilemma: do you buy a waterproof case that can work with your current setup, or do you step up and throw down the cash for a brand new waterproof digital camera? Let’s look at the cost comparison.

Waterproof Case

Anywhere from $100 to $200, depending on the model you own. A pretty big investment given the price of digital cameras these days, but they do work well, and will allow you to greatly increase the functionality of your current camera.

New Waterproof Camera

The new Canon PowerShot D10 is currently the only offering from Canon that’s completely waterproof. You’ll spend about $300 to get one of these. So on average $100 to $150 more than buying the case. However, this is a simpler package without the hassle of having to set up the case, so maybe it’s worth the extra cost? That’s for you to decide!
