Beginner here - go simple

Here's a vote for the Olympus Tough TG4 / TG5. There is an Olympus fisheye accessory lens (needs Olympus accessory filter adapter). It is a decent pocket camera as well. Get a filter adapter for the camera and a screw-in lens hood for above-water use, or avoid shooting into sun - major flare. No housing needed for snorkeling. Good for kayaking too. It has a good UW color balance JPG mode, and also you can shoot in Raw format.

The cost for the basic Tough would be less than any decent new housing.
