Memories are created almost anywhere. And when I say anywhere, I mean that memories are even created underwater "so the genesis of underwater digicam.
An underwater electronic camera isn't just used to capture underwater memories; some pro marine photographers also use underwater digital cameras in their business. Even marine biologists and scientists use underwater digicams to capture sea life and so be in a position to look at the life and properties of the sea life. But I believe it is safe to say that you, my reader, are neither a sea scientist nor a professional photographer. Like me, you are some photo addict who wants to capture underwater moments and just cant figure out how without spoiling your cameras.
Please listen to me when I say that even waterproof cameras can't withstand underwater photography. To be water resistant is to withstand the water in certain levels, submerging in under the water to get the ideal shot is like throwing it out of the window expecting a pick-up truck to go by and run over it.
Now if you're actually serious about using an underwater digicam to capture those wacky and funny moments underwater, I advise that you buy specialty cameras. Nikon digital camera prices are fairly cheap and one can be afforded on almost any budget.

There are infrequently underwater digital cameras, as cameras are electronic and can't withstand water and water pressure. The closest electronics has ever got to manufacturing underwater electronic cameras are producing underwater casings for electronic cameras. These casing will turn your conventional digital camera into an underwater digital camera.
If you are shooting with your underwater digital camera, you need to be aware of a couple of things to help you come up with the best pictures underwater.
Remember that as you farther under water, light diffuses. This indicates that your underwater digital camera will produce images darker than those pictures you took while on land "this is due to the fact that of the light diffusion the red spectrum appears darker. To prevent this, use white balance come up with natural colours. Also, footage taken underwater will come up larger than pictures taken on land with the same zoom effect. Be certain to check your underwater digital camera's rangefinder to check the right picture angle and size that you need.
An underwater digital camera with its built in flash will produce sea show phenomenon. It is a phenomenon wherein your pictures come out as blurred and with white particles floating above it, to get round this phenomenon it is recommended to use external flash for your underwater digital camera.
Before using your underwater digital camera, submerge the camera in the water first for several seconds then check if there are leaks through the case. Make sure that no grain of sand or piece of hair is stuck between the seal to be certain that water will not permeate the case and therefore wet your camera in the procedure. It's also a good idea to put silica gel or 2 within the case of your underwater digicam so long as they do not bug the camera's operation. (Silica gel will keep the moisture from forming inside your camera case.)
Most underwater digicams come with optional lenses. Don't be scared to add these lenses to your underwater digital camera

Also, remember to wash of salt when you've used it under salt water. If the salts are not washed off, in time they will solidify; act as sands and cause leaks for your camera case. In cases when sands appear to get into the case, they're better washed off with streams of water.
