  Seem the ISO rating is a little low.  I'd be afraid of any night time shots even with flash.  Other than that, everything else looks fine.  My Optio W30 is still somewhat new to me so I'm not looking for another camera yet.

I noticed that Target sells that same camera for $119.99

For underwater use, it looks like you have to use the included housing.

Martin, are you getting one?
I'm curious if it's any good.

I bought an optio this summer.  I'm sticking with that, just thought i'd pass along the deal. 

i'm not big on housings, and I wouldn't be taking my optio below its rated depth anyway so i don't really need a 120 foot rated housing.
