The Best Brand For Waterproof Digital Cameras?

Chris

I would like a camera that can sustain weather-related obstacles like rain, snow, etc. I want a camera that is 10 Mega Pixels or higher, can capture video, and is between the range of $100 - $250. (Image Stabilization is a plus)

I would like to know what brand can supply me with a camera equal to the features i want or a camera alone that any of you may recommend.

Thank You For All Of Your Answer(s)

The Canon D10 came out on top, but it is over your budget.
Pentax W60 was second, and within budget, but it lacks image stabilization.

Hey, why is someone giving TomTom a thumbs down? It is perfectly legit to tell someone to use the Yahoo! guide. They can put in a fwe desires, like price or pixels, and it will lead them to some suggestions.

TomTom, maybe you can just use the link to the page: http://shopping.yahoo.com/b:Digital%20Cameras:20148412;_ylt=AphZjicVJAfeIckOrTY1sUUSssUu;_ylu=X3oDMTBpamdzYzFwBF9zAzIwMTQ4NDEyBHNlYwNiYw-- (You'll have to go there and copy the link to get the whole thing for future answers. You can have it and I won't use it if I see you are using it in the future.)

Anyhow, here's my standard "cheap but good camera" answer.

Some of our best answerers always recommends the Fujifilm FinePix F20 camera as the best-for-less choice. I have to say that I like the sample images at Steve's site (below). If Morey000 or SpaceCowboy show up after me and make this recommendation, choose them as the best answer, because I'm just passing along their suggestion. I have no personal experience with this camera. I see it at B&H Photo (available through Yahoo! Shopping) for $150; $190 with a 1 GB Sandisk memory card.

My brother has the A540 and my mother-in-law has the A530 - on my recommendation - and neither one has stopped speaking to me yet. Based on this and experience with other Canon Powershot cameras, I am now recommending the A550 as a nice and relatively inexpensive camera. The A550, which has more pixels, but offers less user control.

The A550 costs $170 at B&H and, of course, you'll need a memory card.
