Yep, I had a camcorder housing in my hand that was good to 30feet under. I
explained to the sales guy over and over all I wanted to do was use the
camcorder while kayaking and that if I was 30 feet under water I was in
pretty serious trouble and wouldn't mind losing the camcorder... he kept
trying to sell me the $800 full scuba enclosure...
