text: Mr. Hess, glad you are okay. You can get insurance on cameras. We know many people that have their underwater cameras insured. The old saying is not if it will be flooded, but when it will be flooded. Having watched my wife in despair as she discovered that her 1500.00 camera was full of water, it may well be worth it. I saw a person loose a 10,000.00 to salt water one time. I never knew that many cuss words.
