Can anyone out there recommend a digital camera. Not looking for anything too flash (no pun intended) Any shops/mail order currently doing good deals or anyone want to sell. I'm no David Bailey, just want a point and shoot camera.

i remember a underwater camcorder bright yellow thing Thanks, I just need a still-shot job. I do a lot of open-water swimming and I'd like to take a camera with me. I know I could get one of those waterproof disposables and put the pics on CD, but I'd rather choose which pics I want digitally. There are a few dive cameras about but they're really expensive. I'm wondering just how waterproof a 'waterproof' camera or case would be!

Cheers Pilch. I've just got back from town and the blokes in the camera shops had different stories about how reliable the waterproofing is. When it comes down to it I think I don't fancy the risk of towing £400-worth of kit in salty water with rocks around the edge! Waterproof disposables it is then.
