D10 is waterproof to 33feet only. It's better but both are in the same range of "kids jumping to pool" or "party on the beach in the rain".

Seriously... it's a novelty joke. Rule: From now on when a P&S touts 720 vid and it's archaic mjpeg encoding, either mention this (worse) or don't say anything at all regarding video (better).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 5th 2009 10:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax debuts waterproof Optio WS80 alongside P80 and E80 point-and-shoots]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/pentax-debuts-waterproof-optio-ws80-alongside-p80-and-e80/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/pentax-debuts-waterproof-optio-ws80-alongside-p80-and-e80/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just a note that the shake reduction is probably just like the W80, where they simply crank the ISO. Not in-lens or in-body via sensor shift.<br><br>@chad, re: mjpeg. The only real downside to motion jpeg is file size. Editing-wise, it's still easier to work with and requires a less powerful computer compared to AVCHD/Lite.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[gooberlx]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 5th 2009 11:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax debuts waterproof Optio WS80 alongside P80 and E80 point-and-shoots]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/pentax-debuts-waterproof-optio-ws80-alongside-p80-and-e80/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/pentax-debuts-waterproof-optio-ws80-alongside-p80-and-e80/</guid><description><![CDATA[a huge downside; outdated and inefficient. what is it... like 20 min to 4GB? my NLVE handles avc just fine.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 6th 2009 1:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax debuts waterproof Optio WS80 alongside P80 and E80 point-and-shoots]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/pentax-debuts-waterproof-optio-ws80-alongside-p80-and-e80/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/pentax-debuts-waterproof-optio-ws80-alongside-p80-and-e80/</guid><description><![CDATA[Cool Camera!<br><br>Any idea how to capture gaming videos online like this one in the dare to be digital competition?<br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU_nhQpyaJE" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU_nhQpyaJE</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dare to be digital 2009]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 6th 2009 5:17AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
