waterproof digital cameras ratings image
Rachel
I am considering buying the OLYMPUS Stylus 550WP Blue 10.0 MP 2.5" LCD 3X Optical Zoom Waterproof Digital Camera with the open box policy from newegg. Would this be a mistake? Would the camera somehow not be waterproof?? It would be a savings of $40 if I bought it the open box way. Is it worth the risk?
Answer
Newegg is a highly rated site with very high levels of customer satisfaction.
Buying open box is always a risk because that means that someone has been in that box. Was the camera removed? Did someone shoot photos with it? Does it carry the full maker's warranty? Did some one handle or mishandle the camera? All these are valid questions.
With newegg's high ratings however, you'll probably be safe. However I still believe you'd be better off not saving the $40 and buy new.
These kinds of deals can be so tempting but... who really knows besides newegg - I don't and I don't think you do either.
Good Luck

im going to vacation soon so i need waterproof camera but i need to know what camera have better video and pictures under water ?
Answer
The sony is water proof to 3m which means if you drop it in a puddle it will probably not leak, but I wouldn't want to trust it snorkelling or even in a swimming pool, one knock against the side and it will almost certainly flood.
The Panasonic on the other hand is rated to 10m which means it should with stand knocks in the pool or snorkelling.
As to which has the better picture quality thats a little more subjective. Technically the Panasonic has a better range of settings, larger optical zoom, higher resolution etc, but they are not the be all and end all of taking decent photographs. Neither has a dedicated underwater mode but given their depth ratings that isnt really a suprise.
Based purely on its depth rating and other spec's I'd go Panasonic.
