Waterproof recommendation

Yeah, I can't believe I missed that. Oh well, the Canon looks like a winner. I guess the video isn't as good but that wasn't even a feature that I was worried about anyway. Thanks for the tips!

For what its worth, or just to confuse you more, Pentax is coming out with the W90- a more rugged version of the W80 we discussed above.

That said. I still recommend the canon.

The 720p feature on the Pentax W80 is the reason I got it, but the video quality was about the worst 720p I've seen.

Yea but think about how much the image quality will have improved now that the camera has a carabiner! :fool:

I have to admit, it does look pretty cool....
