Thought about posting that too.  It's only waterproof to 3 meters, so I would recommend having it inside the hull during launch and return.  :-)

I think that's the default for most WP cameras.

I've recently started looking at the Sony AS 10 camera; looks to be a good one so far. I've read that the audio is supposed to be step-up from the others both in and out of the water.

From Sony's specs, the camera is waterproof down to 197 feet with the case.
~$178 without wifi and $278 with.

Still, it's hard to not think of the price-point on those Kodak Playsports.
My wife thinks fishing is merely guys wandering around like idiots swinging sticks in the air. Many of my trips prove how smart she really is.
