second this! The same thing happened with my camera when I took it into the pool.

Bought TX20, after TX10. After some water activities, the camera is resetting to the factory default. I needed to reset time, date... again and again. Water got into the camera and short some circuit but all working fine after the reset. Sony service denied the warranty service because they see the camera is sealed from water. Treat me as a liar. Don't buy the camera, or other Sony Waterproof camera. I bought Nikon AW110 and happy with it.

Great underwater photos, but on its fourth trip into crystal clear ocean water one of the camera doors leaked and the camera died. Despite following the instructions exceptionally carefully before and after using it underwater Sony claimed I must have dropped some liquid into or damaged the camera and refused to acknowledge the warranty! Don't buy this camera if you want reliability.

TX 20 is almost the same as TX 10 which I had before, the main difference is that TX20 is faster than TX10, especially video recording start - big improvement. TX 20 has active stabilization for video recording includes optical and digital stabilization. The IQ is still not good at 16 mp but is acceptable as 5 mp. The weak point on both cameras is the plastic frame around the display, which got broken on my TX10 just by puling the hand strap a little bit harder, I have seen other cameras with cracked frames as well. The biggest disappointment for me is that TX20 is made in China not in Japan as TX10 and the battery door is plastic and it bends when is locked, I hope it wont leak when is submerged in water.
Good eyes, we will fix that up soon. Thanks for letting us know, and we are glad you like our site.

Great site. Your reviews really helped me make my decision on a waterproof camera. Although we have an Alaska trip planned with hiking, rain, kayaking, rain, mosquitos and rain (why, yes, I am looking forward to it) I purchased a TX-20 rather than the AW100 because 99% of my pictures are not taken under those conditions. Pool and beach shots will be few and far between and I wanted something that was light and small. By the way, although not important to me the macro on the TX-20 is closer to 1cm, not 10cm (it probably is the same as the TX-10). I took a picture of a portion of a letter on my desk with the camera just far enough off the paper to allow the ambient light in. The text came out very clearly.
