Water Proof Cameras?

I'd like to take my camera with me more often on kayak trips, but am always
concerned about it ending up in the water. Are there reasonably inexpensive,
$300 or less, cameras that are waterproof and have some flexibility in
adding lens? I typically use a Canon Rebel G with two or three different
lenses. One is a 300mm. Perhaps there is some way to enclose it in a bag
meant for the purposes of protecting equipment from a dunking?
Yes, there are a handful of 3x waterproof digital cameras available
from Pentax, Olympus, and a few others that are perfect for snapshots
and landscape shots. For more serious photography your Rebel can be
housed in a waterproof Pelican box. The problem I have is that the box
is a few inches too big to fit comfortable between my knees. Measure
carefully before ordering a box.

Who makes enclosures rather than carrying cases?
Well, that would be the classy approach, but they are expensive...
