Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS10
Competitors

As well as being compared against other waterproofs and compacts, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS10 is also often compared to travel zooms. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS10's top rivals come from Panasonic (such as the Lumix TS20 and the Lumix DMC-TS3) and Olympus (such as the TG310 and the TG-610)

Generally, some of the advantages of the Panasonic DMC-TS10 compared to other waterproof competitors include: it has a faster max shutter speed (1/1600 of a second vs 1/1300 of a second) and significantly longer exposures (60 seconds vs 8 seconds).

However, on average it records lower quality movies (720p @ 30fps vs 1080p @ 30fps), has a much narrower wide angle lens (35 mm vs 25 mm), lacks a built in panoramas, doesn't take 3D photos and is older (july, 2010 vs august, 2011).
