next week we'll be having a Mussandam dive and next month will be my Palawan dive so i decided to buy a camera that i can use underwater. im searching for a camera with manual settings, where in, i can practice the manual modes in preparation for my DSLR camera(when can i buy it??) and to practice my framing as well. and the winner is....

the A720IS powershot from Canon


with WP-DC16 underwater casing


last friday my kuya kasmot and i went to Al Nasr Square in Naif area to look for a nice DSLR for our photography. we checked the new release from Canon the Eos 450d and compared it to the previous DSLR cameras that we saw in Mall of the Emirates.since im tight of budget i decided to buy A720IS for a start.besides this camera can do a bit of professional pics but limited. so i did some exploration of my camera's capability and some experimentation.
