unless you're a fantastic snorkeler, don't invest in UW camera gear.   It's not worth it.  I used to think this as an absolute, but a couple folkshave posted images here that prove it's not impossible to get good stuff without a tank.

A gopro type camera is cheap, will do video well in shallow depths, and is easy to care in the water.  I wouldn't advise spending more unless you're going to get certified to dive, and then I'd still say get the diving in first.
