With these cameras getting much smaller, with more megapixels, video capability, and nice screens, dropping one or having a drink spill on one is very easy to do. I would willingly pay more for better durability for my digital camera.   ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryboy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 10th 2006 6:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olympus&#039; water/shockproof Mju Stylus 720SW reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[it's fine. if ya want scuba, there are a bunch of cameras for that.

My Sony DSC-P93 broke the day my wife flew into the country, so I picked this one up.<br><br>I miss having a dial to switch between different modes (picture modes/movie/view/setup/etc), all functions are changed by going to a menu system and selecting the mode you want to set the camera in.<br><br>But the picture quality is decent.  It really is waterproof.  We took a few pictures under water.  If you want to see some of its work, here's some albums of the pictures we took.<br><br><a href="http://pictures.familycampground.org/MortonIsland">http://pictures.familycampground.org/MortonIsland</a><br><a href="http://pictures.familycampground.org/AustralianZoo">http://pictures.familycampground.org/AustralianZoo</a><br><br>I do NOT recommend using the digital zoom.  Its practically crap.  You can do a better job of taking the original and zooming in using a photo editor.  It has no view finder, the screen on the back is all you have, which has not been a hinderance to me yet.<br><br>The 24 different photo modes and 1 movie mode it can do, I thought were useless, but they turned out to be somewhat useful.  For example the sunset mode took this:<br><br><a href="http://pictures.familycampground.org/MortonIsland/p3150063">http://pictures.familycampground.org/MortonIsland/p3150063</a><br><br>Plus my wife can drop this camera in the water (as she's done with my previous camera) and not freak out.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 10th 2006 10:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olympus&#039; water/shockproof Mju Stylus 720SW reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yuor links don''t work?

These are the products intended for SCUBA enthusiasts.  The waterproof features of this camera are not intended for extreme depths, nor are they being marketed as such.  Is it so unbelievable to think it might be nice to have a camera with no fear of an accidental drop in water?  Or maybe a few cheeky snorkeling photos?  <br><br>Lighten up, it's a Stylus, made for the average consumer market.  This isn't some high-end "OMFG they packed a full digital SLR into a 50-meter submersible housing for $400!" camera.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tucker]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 11th 2006 3:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olympus&#039; water/shockproof Mju Stylus 720SW reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's all about the beach people, plus not having to carry it in a case, which adds a fair amount of bulk to other small cameras.  Well it sold me, picking mine up tomorrow, then will be taking pictures of my friends from inside their pints... ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Guy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 12th 2006 5:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olympus&#039; water/shockproof Mju Stylus 720SW reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/10/olympus-water-shockproof-mju-stylus-720sw-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[A couple of days before my son's first birthday party, my wife dropped our sony in the pool. We needed a replacement quick, so no time to really read reviews. I saw this camera and figured you can't go wrong because it was only about 50 bucks more than the non-waterproof cameras with similar spex. Picture quality and fetures are right in line with other cameras in the price range, and the camera has already seen a couple of falls on the floor and had some pool time. I keep reading reviews slamming this thing because it "only" goes 10 feet deep or because the photo quality pales in comparison to SLR cameras.... It costs $400! Most underwater camera housings cost around $200, and that doesn't include the actual camera! SLRs go for a Grand! FOr $400, I can't find a better camera for someone with kids. I wouldn't take professional wedding pix with it, but I wouldn't take my $1500 SLR to the beach. For everyday use, you can't go wrong with this camera at this price point.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Victor]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 24th 2006 3:37AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
