I like water sports. I don't have a underwater camera.
I own a Canon A720 IS that I have an Ike Lite underwater housing for.
Here's the camera: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=183&modelid=15657
and here's it's housing: http://www.ikelite.com/web_two/can_a710.html
I use the camera for both above and below surface. The housing is rated to 200 feet depth, which is probably a little deeper than you plan on using one. 
There are underwater digital cameras at Walmart that are rated to something like 45 feet and cost about 60 bucks, if you're interested. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9604830#Item+Description

The underwater sea floor seen here is very different from those we’ve seen heretofore. It is continuously covered with thriving living organisms. The fauna are dominated by branched “corals” about twenty cm tall, rather colorful and decorated with numerous lighter-colored brittlestars. Several species of white foliate (flattened in a leaf shape) sponges and other, yellower ones are scattered over the living tapestry.
We can see corridors that are bare of organisms. These areas seem to have been scraped by rocks or ice, but the hypothesis of a passing iceberg at such a depth is discarded. Thus it could be a case of a landslide of big rocky chunks that would have tumbled down the continental talus.
The rare vertebrates seen are Notothenioids and, for the first time in the mission, macrouroids, also known as grenadiers!

Digital cameras are pretty touchy things - unlike this one, which you can park a truck on.

I just bought this SeaLife underwater camera that also has video capability. Figured it wouldnt take good video, but it did pretty good for a little underwater camera.

I just got an olympus digital underwater camera. To take a picture you have to go to a scn and then do underwater snapshot. but i dont know how to take a video underwater.
You just take the video. There are no special settings for videos like there are for pictures, but the camera is still waterproof.

Im going diving over christmas break and i was thinking of getting the sealife reefmaster mini since it doesnt need underwater housing. I know my pictures will be blue if i dont get a bigger light but the pro set with the big flash is 450$ compared to the price of 250$ for just the camera. If i got an underwater flashlight for like 30 bucks would it have the same effect on my pictures and make them more colorful and not so blue?
Get the strobe. A flashlight is no way near good enough for decent photography. The colour spectra is way off.
As for blue. Your pics will be blue, green, or tea coloured in background no matter what. It all depends on the water you're in. No flash or flashlight will compensate for it unless you're doing macros.
