All around perfect compact camera!!!

This is the perfect camera for someone like me who tends to be a bit abusive with electronics. I drop my cell phone almost daily, luckily I haven't dropped it in water yet. So here is the camera that I can forget to put away in its protective case, drop on an occasional basis, and not only can get wet, but is built to shoot underwater! I probably looked at just about every compact digital camera out there, and this one is also the best looking model I've seen. It has a very sleek and substantial feel to it, without being overstated like some of the other "rugged camera" models. Also from what I've read and experienced thus far it has the best picture quality of any of the rugged models. Sure, the picture quality is not up to the specs of a professional photographer, but this is a compact model camera after all. In conclusion I would highly recommend this camera!

Very, very pleased

My 2 year old daughter trashed my last camera so I wanted something rugged. As soon as I received this camera, I took it into the pool and took underwater shots which was a great novelty. That same day it slipped out of my hand, crashed 4 feet below on the ground, and evidenced no signs of damage at all. Pictures could be a bit sharper but, for a simple point and shoot, I'm very impressed. The video is especially impressive. If you're looking for a water/shock proof camera, I highly recommend this camera!

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1S 12.1 MP Waterproof Digi Camera Specifications

About Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1S 12.1 MP Waterproof Digi Camera

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1S digital camera body is waterproof to 3 m (9.84 ft). It's dustproof too, so you don't have to worry about dust or sand getting inside. And it has passed drop tests at a height of about 1.5 m (4.92 ft). This is one tough little camera that you can take wherever action takes you.

The TS1 records HD motion images with 1280 x 720-pixel resolution. It uses the AVCHD (MPEG-4/H.264) format, via AVCHD Lite which stores less data than other formats and thus lets you shoot more minutes of HD motion images before running out of memory.

Just set the camera to iA mode, aim and shoot. The camera does the rest for you. It automatically sets the optimal mode for the shooting situation and helps correct blurring, focus and brightness problems. It also activates the new Face Recognition function, which finds familiar faces in a group of people and captures them in a clear focus and with proper exposure.

A retracting lens with folding optics is used in this 4.6x zoom lens system, which lets you take shots from the 28mm wide-angle to 129mm telephoto. This gives you the flexibility for virtually any shooting situation - even underwater shots, where the angle of view is naturally narrowed, or when you just want to fill the frame with your subject.
