I really cod'lnut ask for more from this article.

I had one for my old F40fd and loved it so much, I bought it for my new litlte fuji. My old one still works great, I have dropped it on concrete many times at the pool, and it still never leaked when scuba diving afterword.I took this cave diving in Crystal River Srings, FL, under high pressure, and took it on the beach and in the pool another day in shallow waters. I also took it snorkeling with manatees. No rust, no leaking, no fogging. Got knocked around many times, but stood strong. You can easily access all controls on the camera. The locking mechism is fantastic. The pictures are easy to take, and easy to show somebody how to take. The fujinon lens goes right up to the glass element on the case, and takes clear pictures on dry land just as if you weren't using the case. The adjustable wrist cord with a rubber tube is comfortable and never comes off during swimming. The flash words good through the diffuser, although you'll need use the overexpose dial since the flash is weekened. My friends love the pictures I've taken of them. The shots while in the ocean while we are playing football are right up in the water action and very unique and clear. The videos and pictures I took in the caves are clear and priceless. The 1/1.6 sensor on the Fuji F200, which is 70% larger than all point and shoots and slightly bigger than even the Canon G10, performs fantastically in the more challenging lighting environments underwater. Also, under extreme bright beach lighting, the camera has incredable dynamic range and doesn't show any hilight clipping. You can actually still hear people pretty well in video mode through the case. The camera focuses really well, even in an extremely dark underwater cave. The litlte light built into the camera is shot further by the hole in the flash diffuser, allowing it to both focus and give extra light in dark water. The camera performs surprisingly fast. Very high quality, good instructions. You may want to order some extra silica gel packets. This case is way cheaper than the other brands, and easier to get even cheaper as a gray market even on amazon. My only complaint is that if the camera could use a fisheye adapter or slightly wider lense, it would be more useful underwater, since pictures underwater for any camera get blurier further away from the subject. Generally, it was wide enough however. Not many cases or point and shoots let you attach these, let alone in an underwater case. I think sony has this option for some of their high end cameras.By the way, I own about $9,000 worth of Canon gear (5D, L lenses, etc) and have used almost every brand extensively. The Fuji sensors are the best quality for Point Shoot cameras.

That's a very good question, Mary, since you can't acuatlly see one on the camera. I checked the Canon site and the camera specs indicate there is a built-in flash. I believe it's a pop-up flash on the left side of the camera (right side of photo), behing the Canon logo.

Lisa! These are amazing. The shots of the girls are just maagcil you've really captured the essence of both of them. Welcome back and thanks again for such a wonderful session. I'm shocked that you managed to get some of Nigella that aren't a blur. . . (smile).

Aloha e Robin,the triangle prceojt is marvelous. I admire the part in you that is always reaching for something outside the box or in this case outside the triangle. I look at your site once a week (if I can find the few minutes) and each time I visit your site I am inspired to try something. At this stage it is all eye candy and someday I will get back to the machine. In the meantime, mahalo nui loa for your inspiration and sharing of your work. You are one of my favorite artists.~Elizabeth ElliottHaiku
