Answer
if you are fond of taking your pictures and hobbies include the beach and pool a waterproof camera is great! although there are concerns about cameras leaking you can get cameras which have an extra lens screen which will minimize the chance of water getting in and now-a-days battery covers will have a rubber seal so a tiny hair or fibre shouldn't create a leakage. the higher the depth of water resistance the less likely it is for water to get in, the advised depth is 5m because it is rather hard to swim this deep but it ensures this camera would have good protection against water and pressure. its there in your hand for any picture. pictures can speak really well to describe yourself which hobbies fall into so enjoying aquatic activities would be even better with a waterproof camera. just imagine those stunning shots you could get from in the pool of your and your friends! especially with sunlight beams pouring into the pool and through onto the pool floor! having a waterproof camera will put no limits to the pictures you can take. good quality pictures can be taken from a camera as simple as an 8MP which is why there a wide range of possibilities to choose from. if your looking for one that you want to use out of water aswell there are quite a few you could get the best one advised to me was the sony TX10, i got this for christmas and could not be happier it has a 16.2MP and a 4X optical zoom. it is water resistant guaranteed up to 5m and also shockproof to 1.5 m it has a sweep power mode and captures stunning moments with a fast shutter! this one is a little pricey though at around £250 so if you still want great quality but at a lower price i would go for the samsung wp10 this is 12.2 megapixel which is still great and has an internal 5x zoom. it is a compact camera and comes in a wide range of colours including: light turquoise, red, yellow and black unfortunately it is only up to 3 meters water resistant and does not have any shock proof abilities. this one comes in on the market at around £125
hope this helps a bit! :)

Pentax Optio W60 vs. Olympus Stylus waterproof cameras?
Chicken
I know there was already a question on this, but it still left me wondering. I have read some reviews online already, and I just want to find out more.
For me, the Pentax gets my attention because it uses SD memory cards, and I already own a 1 GB card. The video quality is exceptional as well, and I also like the appearance of it more than the olympus.
The thing that gets my attention with the olympus cameras are their durability. I like how they are shockproof and some are crushproof. I do not like how they look as much and I do not prefer xD picture cards.
I have some questions?
- What are your opinions on these cameras?
- Which has a sharper image quality?
- What type of batteries do they use?
- and Are the pentax cameras somewhat durable? It says they are "rugged compacts".
Thanks. It's okay if you cannot answer all of the questions. I just want your opinions!
fhotoace-
I wasn't really sure which olympus model to compare it to. I was thinking either the Stylus 850 SW or Stylus 1050 SW.
Thanks again for answering!
Answer
- What are your opinions on these cameras?
I don't like Olympus because of: xD memory cards, lenses position, sensitivity to dynamic pressure (I saw 2 flooded 1030SW this year) and because it is capable of recording only 10 seconds of video in 640x480,30 fps mode
- Which has a sharper image quality?
W60 has better and sharper image quality (http://public.fotki.com/Primoz/1030swvsw60/ - pictures are from steves-digicams internet page)
- What type of batteries do they use?
They both uses dedicated Li-Ion accus
- and Are the pentax cameras somewhat durable? It says they are "rugged compacts".
Pentax is durable enough for me: it survived 1 week in desert, 3 weeks of snorkelling without fresh water and 12 meters deep in Red Sea, but Olympus is capable to survive fall from height of 1,5 meters and you can step on it even if you weight 100 kg
