I am considering my first serious underwater digital cam purchase and am wandering around on the Internet, a bit overwhelmed. l've stricken the SeaLife Reefmaster from my list and am leaning towards the Bonica Sea-Pix. Does anyone have any experience with this camera? The other option is to put together a camera/housing/strobe package, but I would need a whole lot of advice on matching all those component pieces. Anyone want to offer any? I'm a true beginner, but I had a great time with a cheap-o u/w camera on my last trip to Bonaire -- even though the pics were all crappy. I'd really like to upgrade my equipment and skills.

I would also look at an Olympus C5050 with an Olympus PT-015 housing. That camera can do quite a bit more than the Bonica. Both are available on Ebay for good prices. Once hooked on UW photography, you'll be a goner for sure!
