Olympus MJU 725 SW....http://www.dpreview.com/news/0608/06082306oly725sw.asp"Those of you with an adventurous (or just clumsy) side will be pleased to hear that Olympus has updated the shockproof and waterproof Mju 720 SW. The new Mju 725 SW is now waterproof to 5m, can survive being dropped 1.5m, and features the same 7.1MP resolution and 3x optical zoom as its predecessor"Do you think its worth getting it?I really want a decent camera that is waterproof.. opinions?
oh and i think i started another thread last night about it.. but its not here so meh.. couldnt find it to see the replies
720SW's image quality sucked big time, tons of noise even at lowest sensitivity. Seeing as the sensor is the same, I think there is little reason to buy 725SW unless you are really prone to dropping or drowning your camera.
You're probably better off getting one of the "good" canon A-series and a housing if you want something waterproof.
