I did a LOT of photos with a Sony DSC-U60 last year, the fixed focal length, 2Mpixel, ruggedized and waterproof model. It is a tremendous amount of fun and takes a remarkably good picture. One of my favorites was a self portrait made from under the surface of a hot tub looking up at my boyfriend and I looking down ... If I can fish it up, I'll post a URL. Can't do that with a DS... :-)
You could buy a Ewa-marine housing for your *istDS. It would be good for depths a lot greater than any hot tub I have ever seen. ;-) Also, it can protect your camera from other potential dangers, such as blowing sand, spattering mud, rain, etc.
take care, Glen
