I noticed that several people posted their videos on here.
I'm thinking of getting a camera that makes underwater pics/vids to make a video to check my swimming and decided to buy this model:
Amazon.com: Canon PowerShot D10 12.1 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch LCD: Electronics
Does anyone have this model or have any other good recommendation?

Thanks Steve, I am referring to my sloth like turnover more than my clock time.

Does anyone know how to relate lens numbers to field of view in degrees? In my experience having a wide angle lens is extremely useful in terms of being able to get the whole body in frame for side shots without having to be a great distance away, which can be tough with limited deck space for above water shots and even more problematic underwater.
The new Sanyo waterproof video camcorders seem very attractive except I worry that the field of view might be too narrow for convenient underwater shooting. With 30x optical zoom I wish they had used more of that to give a wider field of view at minimum zoom. The Sanyo has f=43-1290mm, my Olympus has f=28.
