One of te first rugged camera, which is thin and compact enough to bring it with you really in all situations. The only other thin and compact ones are the sony tx5 and tx10 but their battery life is too low because of their touch screen.
I tried it first in an aquarium and then in rivers, in the red sea, in swimming pools, in sauna and it fell many times in the sand and the mud, without problem... even if the slot for the sd card seems very weak.
