Waterproof Digital Cameras Compared
Can anyone recommend a waterproof digital camera? How does the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT1 compare to Olympus?
I’ve heard of far too many cases of people saying that their Olympus waterproof camera had leaking seals.
I need it for holidays (going to the USA), and can’t risk buying an Olympus if it might leak.
Just wondering if anyone can recommend an Olympus model that isn’t prone to leaking seals,
Or can anyone tell me how the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT1 performs in comparison (picture quality, speed, practicality etc.)
A Panasonic Lumix TS1 series camera is the best waterproof camera you can get (it might also be the most expensive one).
A lot of people have had problems with the image results when they took pictures with the Olympus Stylus Tough-8000, so it’s probably a good thing that you didn’t buy it. The Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP and the Canon D10 cameras are your other options. The most affordable you could get is the Fuifilm FinePix Z33WP.

I hope this helps!
Good luck!
