Suggestions for camera/waterproof case for shots from kayak

Hi all,

I've used a Panasonic case and Lumix camera (now 10 years old), shooting from my kayak in often rough conditions where splash and occasional immersion are the rule. My Lumix has poor image quality - not to mention the dreaded sensor dust which I have cleaned twice with partial success.  Newer models may be better in this regard.

So, I need a camera with a decent zoom range and improved IQ from my old Lumix.  I understand I will need a new case.  Can anyone suggest options for me?  I'd like to keep the total cost under $800.

No underwater shooting.

Thanks for any help,

Carl
