[Q] Waterproof Digital Cameras
 
Yes, I'm sure nano will completely rewrite the laws of physics.

I'm waiting for the 27 mph, easy-to-paddle kayak, myself.

I can't help but to think that our increasing ability to manipulate

But, if you and others wish to believe that it is impossible to offer a
waterproof, digital camera with a good 10x zoom, I cannot stop you - I
simply won't believe you. Mind if I take special note of this post for
potential use in the future?

So you have a choice; you can have a 10X zoom in semi-bulky,
semi-expensive, not waterproof package, or you can have a lower zoom in
a small, inexpensive waterproof package. Or you can wait for your "Holy
Grail".



I have already stated I will wait for the 'essentially impossible'. I
don't consider not spending money on a product I really don't want to be
a bad thing.


If you know that what you want doesn't exist, why are you wasting our
time?


If I new it did not exist before I posted the question, I wouldn't
have asked the question. I have kept my eye out for such a camera, but
left open the possibility that I missed something.

I now know (or am sufficiently confident) it still does not exist
since the knowledgeable people here haven't been able to point me to
one.

People have merely wasted their time attempting me to convince me to
purchase a product I have time and time again clearly stated I am not
interested in. I do not know why they have done this and personally
find it rather weird, but then USENET is a strange place.

Most likely, sometime at the start of next season I will again ask the
same question in case someone has come across something that I have
not. If I happen across a camera that fits my stated parameters, I
will likely post a reference to it here.

Why don't you email camera manufacturers instead of wasting
bandwidth here?


I have done that as well for the ones I am familiar with...however, I
would not claim to be aware of every camera manufacturer.
