best waterproof cameras for 2012 image

Amber

So I 2012 summer is coming fast and I really need a waterproof camera for all the amazing adventures I am going to be doing. I looked on amazon.com but most of the really nice ones had bad reviews about how they don't really work under water! I need a real person who has had experience with waterproof cameras to please help me! I really love taking pictures and have always had a passion for photography. <3 I love it with all my heart and I don't seem to know anybody who has a waterproof camera. PLEASE HELP ME. I'm 15 and having an awesome summer (NO SCHOOL) is what everybody wants. You know what I mean? My 2012 summer has to be awesome. Please help me!

Answer
one drop of water on your camera electronics means disaster, so don't do the "do-it-yourself" projects. A great camera that is rugged, compact, and waterproof is the Olympus Stylus 550WP. That is a camera that i had before giving to a friend, and was well pleased with its performance.

Best choice point and shoot ($300-$450)?

I am looking for a good camera for indoor pictures. I have 3 little kids and take a million shots indoors, but the little $100 camera I have doesn't take decent pictures. I've looked into it a bit and have found a few with good reviews and decent picture quality. The few I've looked into:

Olympus TG-1iHS 12 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX30V 18.2 MP Exmor R CMOS Digital Camera with 20x Optical Zoom and 3.0-inch LCD (Black) (2012 Model)
Nikon COOLPIX P310 16.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 4.2x Zoom NIKKOR Glass Lens and Full HD 1080p Video
Nikon COOLPIX L810 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 26x Zoom NIKKOR ED Glass Lens and 3-inch LCD (Red)
Fujifilm XF1/Blk 12MP Digital Camera with 3-Inch LCD (Black)
Olympus XZ-1 10 MP Digital Camera with f1.8 Lens and 3-Inch OLED Monitor (Black)
Canon PowerShot SX260 HS 12.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 20x Image Stabilized Zoom 25mm Wide-Angle Lens and 1080p Full-HD Video (Black)
Panasonic DMC-FZ150K 12.1 MP Digital Camera with CMOS Sensor and 24x Optical Zoom (Black)
Nikon COOLPIX P510 16.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 42x Zoom NIKKOR ED Glass Lens and GPS Record Location (Black)

I was wondering if anyone had one of these or a decent knowledge of them and could advise me on which would be best for what I'm looking for. Or another suggestion of a camera that takes good indoor pictures. I work a lot in low light and with fast kids. I'm not expecting a miracle - point and shoot cameras can only do so much, but... Any help would be appreciated!

Answer
Nikon and canon make quality cameras. They will give you a camera that will last. Most of these cameras will brake easily, but canons and nikons won't. You can choose any from these two companies.
