The water thing is a very real issue. That's why I tried several waterproof cameras. I know the older Optios do a great job. But none of the newer and even more expensive ones I tried did.

I will get a waterproof case for mine and keep it dry. (It will fit oin my pelican case that i use for the large SLR. BTW the Pelican cases are 100 % wtaerproof and schockproof as well.)

That said, I have drowned several cameras. I see at as a cost of doing business.+
