Question: Taking underwater pictures!?
Hey everyone! I was interested in taking underwater pictures but I don't think my camera is waterproof [sony cybershot]!. I don't want a disposable and I don't want to purchase a new digital or expensive casing!. I know it's super cheap but will a sturdy see-through bag or two work!?

Thanks in advanceWww@QuestionHome@Com

I wouldn't take the risk!. Underwater you have a lot of issues that you don't normally have to contend with such as water pressure!. There are a few bags designed for this purpose and would be better than using random ones, but sometimes they will also make the photos blurry!. Underwater cameras (and necessary lighting) get expensive quickly, but there are a handful of disposable cameras that are designed to go underwater that I've used fairly successfully in the past!. Then, if you find you are taking enough photos and are definitely going to continue the skill, then you can invest in some quality equipment!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not a good idea!. Big risk you're taking and the photos will come out crap anyway because the plastic bag will give a cloudy appearance to you pics!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No!. If you do this, you will damage your camera and end up buying a new digicam!.!.!. say, an Olympus Stylus 1030SW!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
