amateur question	Can't Post

We're going on vacation soon and our taking our home video camera (leaving the big ones at home!). This the one we have: http://www.ciao.co.uk/...m_DCR_TRV60__5333466
We'd like to use underwater and have seen some waterproof camcorder bags. Are they any good? We don't want to spend too much on it.
Any advice welcome!

Only to about 10M(33ft.) Below that the pressure either stops you from physically being able to operate the controls or it could start to leak.
ewa-marine makes the best ones - they're guaranteed to 10M.

I see them on eBay pretty regularly.
