Summer is almost here and we have been looking for a new rugged camera to replace our old olympus waterproof camera. I am now trying to compare the Panasonic Lumix DMC Ts2 (http://www.panasonic.net/avc/lumix/compact/ts2_ft2/index.html) that was released about two weeks ago, and the Olympus Stylus Tough 8010 (http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/product.asp?product=1497&page=overview) which came around at about the same time. In your opinion, which camera is a better, all-around camera that I should buy. In video and picture quality. We will be going to Mexico soon, and would want one as soon as possible.
Answer
Below is a link to a web page that lists the features and specs of the 2 cameras side by side.
The 2nd and 3rd links are to websites that may be able to provide more information.
Then the last 3 links are to websites where you may find a good deal on a camera but also there are customer reviews on equipment purchased and that may be of assistance.
Hope this helps.

SURFING AND SKIMMING AND UNDER WATER ACTIVITIES SUCH AS SPEAR FISHING AND WHAT NOT
Answer
So called âaction sportsâ cameras are really invaluable if you want to document your sporting activities. GoPro just so happens to have that market cornered with their increasingly bold and far-reaching advertising. Know however that there are actually quite a few â and CHEAPER â alternatives. Check out this short listing on Tribal Surf:

With that said, I have looked into all of these alternatives and for surfing, the GoPro really has that application down pat. While these alternatives can do the job, they all lack certain little things which give the GoPro the edge.

We havenât done a review on the Hero2 yet but the big difference is the ability to change angle of view from the traditional fish-eye to narrow (for 3rd person filming). There is a slew of accessories as well that are quite awesome: wifi remote (no more grasping to turn the thing on or off), dive housing (fixes abberations for underwater filming), and many more.
Keep in mind though that if you want to do involved video editing with your HD footage, you will need a computer powerful enough and with enough disk drive space to handle it. (If you want to do full 1080P HD editing, you will also need the appropriate monitor and a Blu-Ray burner and Blu-Ray media.)
