the underwater camera usually used to look inside deepwells for water distribution.
You would normally look for "Optical Sewer Inspection" (because that is what it is mostly used for), or "Snake Eye Camera" (plumbers language).
For models and prices look at

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!

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.

We are going on a Caribean cruise. We want to take underwater pictures of our snorkeling adventures. We have the choice of buying lots of disposable underwater cameras or buy one decent real digital camera. Is the image quality of a real digital camera worth the $250 vs buying several $12 disposable cameras? Basically how good are underwater disposable cameras?
I would rather trust my memories to a good quality camera in the $300 price range than to some "Made In China" disposable camera that might work - or not - and cost you those special memories.
IMO you should consider investing in the Olympus Stylus 770 SW camera. Shockproof to a 5 foot drop, waterproof to 33 feet. This is a camera you can use for years to come and never have to worry about it.
A quick perusal of Yahoo! Shopping found it at Abes of Maine for $299.99, at Monitor Outlet, Inc. for $323.99, at Amazon.com Marketplace for $316.77.
Olympus offers several models of their SW line so you might want to do a comparison of the features and benefits of them before making a decision.
