The reality of my life is that the other members of my family unit consist of two hyper little kids and a clumsy wife. I learned many cameras ago that my cameras MUST be water/drool-proof, shock-proof, nag-proof, and any other proofs they can come up with. Yes, I might sacrifice some picture quality or credit card slim size for my requirements but what good are those other cameras (like a few of my old ones) if they are "accidentally" broken within one month?My other digital camera is an Olympus Stylus Weather/Shock that is a few years old. I must say that so far after a month's usage I prefer the Fujifilm FinePix XP10 12 MP Waterproof Digital Camera
over my other camera.What I like about the Fujifilm FinePix XP10 12 MP Waterproof Digital Camera:
-Good size and form factor. Thumbs up to the large display screen.
-I like that it takes a standard memory card (which was included). My Olympus takes strange size memory card (=expensive, hard to find).
-Easy to use (point and shoot). Picture quality seems decent enough though not as good as some of the high end cameras
-Did I mention it is weatherproof and shockproof? Hasn't broken yet. I do give my other Olympus camera a thumbs up for surviving several years.
-Value for the price.
What could be better for next Fujifilm Waterproof Digital Camera:
-Battery life hasn't seemed that great to me as of yet, but does come with a charger. Battery life still better than my Olympus though.
-Battery hatch hard to open. I consider myself fairly good with gadgets but I actually had to read the instructions to figure out how to open the battery hatch = there will be questions/complaints/nags about this from my wife & kids.
In summary, this Fujifilm FinePix XP10 12 MP Waterproof Digital Camera fulfills my mandatory requirement of weatherproof/shockproof. Second most important to me is size/wearability and this Camera is good in that area. Decent pictures are expected as a given and delivered by this camera. Price for what you get is a good value. = 5 stars by me (so far). Will it survive the perils of life with my family?...only time will tell...if it breaks within one year I will add an update to this review.
