Fun in the Sun with Digital: Waterproof/Tough Camera Roundup! By

Just in time for those lazy mid/late-summer days at the beach, pool, or lake, we've published a comprehensive roundup of all the waterproof/tough cameras currently on the market. We put them all through our standard test protocol, but focused most of our attention on how they actually worked at the beach, pool, etc.
If you need a camera that'll keep working despite repeated dunking, and/or stand up to amazing abuse (in the case of some of the "tough" models) check out our Fun in the Sun Roundup for the real scoop!
Also check out Dave's Good Photos or No Photos? for a note on image-quality trade-offs, and his article on Care, Feeding, and Exposure Tips for Underwater/Tough Cameras for some handy tips for getting the most out of these cameras.
