Wow,

I have a cannon D10 thats waterproof and has a bunch of bells and whisltes but this thing has optical zoom and digital microscope function that blows away a macro format. I want one!

We've found from experience that macro supplemental lighting is critical to taking really nice underwater shots. Casper's basically got the same Olympus Stylus underwater camera as I do, except he's got a built-in LED macro light that I don't. Now, he's just flat-out better at taking photos than I am, too - that's part of the difference, but he says the light is important. This camera you're linking has 3, so as long as they don't scare off the fish, I'm thinking that's a fantastic camera and a great deal.
