Optio WG-1 Waterproof Digital Camera - Black 8 GB Bundle
(E2PKOPTWG1BK)
Pros: Good Battery Life, Small / Compact, Large Clear LCD
Cons:
Other Comments: I used a previous version of this camera and had great results while backpacking, canoeing, backcountry skiing and traveling by motorcycle. Its rugged contruction is top notch. Although the controls are easy to learn, the buttons are a bit too small to operate while wearing gloves. The image quality is quite acceptable. Yes, there are better performing cameras similar to the WG-1, but they cost twice as much. Price and features makes this an excellent choice for the budget kinded adventurer.
Yes, I recommend this product

Optio WG-1 Waterproof Digital Camera - Black 8 GB Bundle
(E2PKOPTWG1BK)
Pros: Compact, Rugged Construction, Large Clear LCD, Easy to Use, Small / Compact, Great Zoom
Cons:
Other Comments: Rugged construction, easy to use controls and a reasonable price make this camera a great choice for the outdoor enthusiast. Are there other cameras out there that deliver better quality images? Yes. But they cost almost twice the price of the Pentax WG-1. I have used a previous version of this camera backpacking, motorcycling and canoeing without any problems.
My only negative comments are that the control buttons are a bit too small to operate and scrolling through the menu options to select a specific mode can be a bit time consuming.

Optio WG-1 Waterproof Digital Camera - Black 8 GB Bundle
(E2PKOPTWG1BK)
Pros: Lots Of Preset Features, Small / Compact, Easy to Use, Good Battery Life
Cons: Clip On Flare Guard Weak
Other Comments: Bought this primarily for snorkeling. Quite a nice kit, have not as of yet used it underwater. Test shots comparable to a typical point & shoot; not going to be great, but will allow shots I would not otherwise be able to get. Seems very resilient; aside from the plastic flare guard. Macro lighting still a bit weak; that's ok as it's not my primary focus.
Yes, I recommend this product

Good Choice

Optio WG-1 Waterproof Digital Camera - Black 8 GB Bundle
(E2PKOPTWG1BK)
Pros: Easy to Use, Great Zoom, Good Battery Life, Great Resolution, Fast Shutter Speed, Large Clear LCD, Good in Low Light, Small / Compact
Cons: Works For Me
Other Comments: I use this mainly for hiking and when I go motorcycle riding. It's big enough to handle easily but small enough to carry in a side pocket of cargo pants. I have not put in water to test the "waterproofness" and really don't plan to. I hike a lot when it snows and rains which is why I wanted this camera.
Yes, I recommend this product
