Late 70s/early 80s I think.

Always wanted one but never had one but I’d like one now.

Is there any reasonably priced compact camera that can take pics in the water?
 
I've got a FUJIFILM xp140 that is waterproof. I've taken it snorkelling before. Think they are discontinue now but I'm sure you could pick one up on resell sites

What's wrong with a modern phone for stuff like this? Most phones are probably better than a cheap camera anyway? Unless you need it for something dedicated of course.

There are a number of reasons I’d prefer a dedicated device to a cell phone.

By the time I’ve unlocked the screen, navigated to the camera app and fumbled with my fat fingers to set the right options, the subject of my shot has long since gone.

Also, there’s the danger of dropping and breaking the phone. Same holds true for a camera but it doesn’t have my entire life on it
 
Something awfully sus about a middle-to-late aged bloke who pretends to be a woman asking about waterproof cameras.
