    Wow! You took underwater photos? What do you mean by waterproof pouch??? Do you mean a special waterproof case for your camera?

    Hehe.. Feeding the fishies... Pretty much like Redang, right?

    Is not casing, is a soft pouch, only can go to 3m. Fits any small camera. I bought it just about RM70 from Phlippines. I saw something similar in Fotokem at Sunway, they selling it at RM200 :|

    Yup, Perhentian is like Redang but less commercialize, at least they don't force you to wear life jacket during snorkeling and forbid you to wear fins.

    Camera accessories and bags are always overpriced over here, partly because of the high tax (100% I believe).

    Oh they allow you to wear fins near the corals? I think they forbid that in Redang to prevent damage to the corals.

    Yeah .. less commercialize can wear fins .. don't have reservation park like Readng. So more fun. divers also must wear fins what. ...

    Hmm.. That's really useful and so much cheaper than the hard case my brother bought for his Canon... It leaked anyway and killed his camera. :roll:

    I'm not sure myself but it really destroyed the camera. Totally unsalvageable. :(

    Anymore shots? Corals? I think Perhentian has got more corals than Redang.

    Went snorkeling only, not diving so not a lot of nice photos, a lot of photos of people feeding fish :)

    Here's a bit more .. my fren had a better camera with casing, I have yet to see his photos.

    How were the corals? Must be better than Redang. There are dead corals at Redang... Lots of fish though.
