OK, JHO aficionados; I’m interested in a weatherproof P/S camera for “outdoor” activities. I’m not planning on taking it scuba diving but I would want it as waterproof as my Garmin Vista – it’ll take a short plunge, but not long-term submersion. On second thought, I probably will take it scuba diving, but not IN the water; just boat side. It needs to be able to sustain a good hard rain, dumped out of the kayak or maybe dropped in the creek by accident, etc. You get the idea….
In addition to weather/waterproof, my list of “wanted features” includes:
It should use AA or AAA batteries (no chargers where I’M going)
It should take SD or micro SD cards (I’m not taking the laptop either!)
Optical Image Stabilization is a good feature that I’m hooked on; it makes for GREAT pictures.
Of course, I’m not on National Geographic’s budget, so point-and-shoot price levels are in order here. It all depends on what it can offer, but I’d like to find one in the $200-300 range, but would consider more if the trade-off is reasonable.
Lay it on me, guys; What cha got?
