I was apprehensive in getting a camera especially because of the costs. In the end I brought a Canon S40 (+-£400) which I use for work and normal topside pictures. About three months later I got the casing (from Cameras underwater about £220). By getting them seperatly it help my cash flow (although my credit card is still red hot!).
I've been able to take great pictures, maybe not competition quality but good enough. Now I take the camera with me for most of my dives and its been fantastic. You can make a short video of 30sec as well.
Digital cameras tend to go down in price with time, the example of my camera which I brought last september should be quite a bit cheaper by now.
