Recommend a waterproof camera?

Jordan Sch

preferably under $200 and water proof up to at least 20 feet

Answer
Panasonic Lumix TS20 16.1 MP TOUGH Waterproof Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom is my 4th digital camera in 2 years. My $300 Nikon was damaged when daughters 5 year old friend dropped it, my $300 Canon stopped working on a Caribbean vacation due to high humidity (do not buy a Canon and use near salt water and heat), my new $300 Nikon died after an unexpected roll over in a kayak. Given that I was into digital cameras for close to $1,000 in just over a year I decided to go with a waterproof, drop resistant design and this $130 Lumix easily produces photos equal in quality to the Canon and Nikon's costing several hundred dollars more.

My Canon PowerShot SD1300 IS Digital Camera stopped working after 6 months?

Meagan

Has anyone else had any problems with this type of camera? I had mine for about 6 months until one day it wouldn't turn on. At first I assumed it was the battery, but after recharging it, it still wouldn't work. Could the rechargeable battery, which came with the camera, be broken or is it the camera that's messed up?
The only thing I can think of that might have caused my camera to stop working it is that I had it in a bag with a water bottle which could have gotten the camera wet from its condensation. Is that really enough to break a 200 dollar digital camera?

Answer
It is under the Canon one year warranty

Call them and get an RMA number and have them repair it for you.

800.OK-CANON

EDIT: If Canon finds that the camera was damaged by water, you will have to pay for the repairs. YES, water can do that to even a $6000 camera. Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Olympus and Sony all make waterproof cameras.
