The DX 2G takes great pics but is a little more expensive than the DC1200. I personally own the DC1200 and love it. I’m dive green water, and I’m haveing trouble with the some of the settings, but I don’t really play around with them to much. I found that If I just leave it on the surface setting, when I get home I can fix the white balance with photo editing software. If you look at my profile, all the pics were taken with the DC1200.
