top 3 waterproof cameras image
confusedon
They sell a pretty cheap underwater camera for around 80 bucks. Ive never even known that coleman makes cameras in general, so im curious if anyone knows how they are. Its a 12 megapixel camera with only 640x480 video. 33 ft waterproof and 3.2ft shockproof. Looking for reviews or if anyone knows about coleman cameras in general.
One of my main worries is also shutter lag time.

They are on the do not buy list for amazon, a lot of returns for leaking camaras.

Im going backpacking for two months. What would be the best backpack for a 5'10 girl carrying only essentials?

I weigh 125kg and will be taking clothes, toiletries, a first aid kit and laptop. Travelling to Thailand and Cambodia for just over 2 months. Any guidelines on what make backpack/size to take? and any things I might not have thought about taking? Thank you. Summer.
Answer
You should go into a shop specialising in outdoor equipments etc and get a properly fitted backpack. While I don't know what is the best brand out there (I personally use Lowe Alpine) but I was advised the following re fitting of backpack to prevent injuring my back and shoulder:
1) when carried, the backpack must not be tower over your head
2) the hip belt support should sit nicely over your hips to fdistribute the weight properly
3) reasonably broad shoulder strap to distribute pressure, not soft-foam type though
4) look for bag with cooling back panel and side pocket for water bottle
You can look for backpack with detachable daypack. That way, during the travel, you can leave your main pack at the hostel / check in during flights and have your daypack with important stuff with you. I personally prefer using slingback that I can keep an eye on at all time (daypack attached to backpack to your back is not something you can look after easily, especially in crowded places - some people circumvent this by carrying the daypack in front of them like a pouch).
Don't forget to get a waterproof backpack cover. That way you can zip the bag and all the straps up when you check it in at the airport (some backpack comes with inbuilt cover that you roll out and zip over the backpack).
Bring light weight clothes. It's going to be hot and humid, so long sleeves are not necessary. Bring a pashmina, which will come in handy for temporary covering over your arms say when you go in to certain places of worship, or if it's cool-ish in the evening/after rain, it'll help to keep you warmer. Bring a good pair of sturdy walking shoes, but not thick leathery ones because it'll be too warm to wear that. Good outdoor strappy sandals may be more useful, and one that can withstand lots of water (e.g. to use when you're in the shower/bathroom, esp at hostels) will be better.
To have a basic first aid kit is good. Don't forget to get your vaccinations before leaving. On top of that, other important things are malarial tablets, sun block (the higher the SPF the better) and insect repellent. An umbrella will be handy as well (not just for rain - it's great for shielding the afternoon sun too).
Of course, the real essentials: passport, money, air tickets. Everything else can pretty much be bought if you accidentally forget them. Additional items you may really want to have with you would be guide book, camera (with spare batteries and memory card), charger, mobile phone, music player (ipod) and a book or two ;)
Before you leave, pack everything in and take a walk around a few blocks around where you live. You should be able to comfortably carry the bag with its contents and walk around for a good 15-20 minutes (if not more). Otherwise, you're bringing too much.
Hope you have lots of fun!
