Digital Video Camera for Filming Swimming

Many of you have posted video of yourselves, in and (in the case of Mr. Thornton) out of the pool. I would like to get a digital video camera. I don't want to spend a lot of money. For those of you who have cameras, what do you have? What do you recommend? Are some better for filming swimming (in an indoor pool with so-so lighting) than others? Anna Lea

    I wasn't even thinking about an underwater camera - just something that someone could use while standing on the deck. But someone sent me a PM saying he had just bought the GoPRO camera with underwater case for around $180. He saw this camera in a post last week by Lump, who also just bought one: http://www.goprocamera.com/ I am hoping that these guys will give us a review once they've tried it out. I'm also going to check out the camera that Jim T. mentioned. I like the idea of something very inexpensive, since it would most likely spend part of its time in my swim bag on the pool deck.
