Re: Camera for diving and travelling

Thank you all for the replies!

You've given me a lot of info so I'll try to summary my answer.

I wouldn't say telphoto capability is critical, so I'll drop this topic for now.

I've been offered the TG-5, it's seems like a proper camera for my needs. But like the other models, the price of the camera itslef along with its housing is exceeding my budget. Moreover, I'm affraid it might be a problem to get the housing in my country. I've tried some film shops and they don't have the suitable hosuing. Since my flight date is nearby, I don't have time for internet delivery.

About the Sony RX100 series, it seems to be a similiar case.

GoPro was my first thought, it's affordable to me. But I don't know if it's worthy because its stills capability might be a bummer.

I've been thinking to maybe get two cheaper cameras, one for diving and one for the rest of the trip, what do think?
