I have Stylus 710 and love it, if I would get another one this is what I would get.

Olympus STYLUS TOUGH-8000
The cheap price I found is $250.00

http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_se...p?product=1448



SHOCKPROOF (6.6ft.)
Life can be tough, this camera is tougher. Rugged metal body and revolutionary shock-absorbing construction are designed to withstand a 6.6-foot drop, bump or other mishap.

WATERPROOF (33ft.)
A revolutionary system of waterproof seals and gaskets keeps water out so you can take pictures as deep as 33 feet underwater.

FREEZEPROOF (14°F/-10°C)
Boldly enter that winter wonderland without worrying about your camera. This camera is winterized to perform at below-freezing temperatures.

CRUSHPROOF (220lbf.)
With a rugged body and reinforced LCD, the STYLUS TOUGH-8000 withstands up to 220 pounds of pressure so your camera and images are protected.

DUAL IMAGE STABILIZATION
Forget about blurry shots with this 2-in-1 anti-blur solution. Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization compensates for camera shake to keep your shots steady while Digital Image Stabilization captures crisp, clear images in any situation.

I think for a standard digital camera it's hard to beat Canon Powershot and Sony Cybershot.

I use a CASIO Exilim and find it does the trick real well. At least it seems to make me look like a better photographer than I really am.

I have a Pentax W30 that I use. I bougth it because at the time it was the only compact that was truely waterproof. The newer model is the W60. I will admit that my wife's Cannon does take better pics but it stays with her and mine stays in my waders with out any worries.
