what should i get for a waterproof camera?

olympus waterproof camera 8010 image

Yello Guy

i very much want to get a waterproof camera, but i don't know which one. i feel like i need more info on the cameras to make a good decision. i've been searching amazon and it comes between a couple.
im very interested in the new olympus 8010, but the cost is much greater than the canon d10.

i dont believe image quality will be an issue just reliability. plz anyone who has owned these cameras help me make a good choice that floats.

Answer
Although it's virtually crush-proof, the Tough 8010 is a new camera and is untested.

The Canon is last year's model but has been proven reliable. Another one you should consider is the Panasonic TS1. The casing is made of metal -- just like the Olympus Tough.

Do you have an idea what causes the "no connection" error in Olympus waterproof camera?

I have an Olympus 8010, I bought it last November 2010. I used it on a pool last week for the first time. After half an hour (out of the pool) I got the "No Connection" error. I Tried removing the battery for 3 days and it still didn't work. Can you help me out on how to fix this?

Answer
A few potential reasons :-

1. You didn't connect the cable to your pc correctly.
2. Cable is faulty
3. Terminal at battery is faulty

Try :-

1. Clean your camera in a bucket of fresh water and press all the buttons like stated in your manual (if you haven't done so)

2. Try other port on your pc.

3. Check if there's anything stuck at your terminal.

4. Turn your camera on and off, and remove the battery.
