Finally after a long month with no camera our new arrived!! Our old one fell off a rock in Yosemite National Park on the 4th of July and cracked and jammed the lens so it was no longer in service. We decided that since we were going to fork out the money for a new one we should get one that would hopefully last more than year. (We bought our old one the day after we got married so it didn't even make it a year!!!) We really liked our last Olympus so we researched a bunch and found this one.
It is the Olympus 1030 SW 10 MP Digital Camera. Here is why we thought it would be good for us:"The Shockproof & Crushproof casing is a durable metal body that has an innovative shock-absorbing construction with a floating Circuit board that can protect the Stylus 1030SW from drops up to 6.6 feet and withstand 220 lbs of pressure. If you ever wanted to take pictures of aquatic life now you can, the Stylus 1030SW has Waterproof seals and gaskets that keeps water out so you can take pictures as deep as 33 feet underwater. When you're skiing or snowboarding you will enjoy the Freezeproof and Digital Image stabilization features that allows you to take perfect photos of fast moving subjects in cold climates up to -10c/14f. With the 10.1 MP setting you can capture high quality images and then easily view it on the 2.7" HyperCrystal II LCD display at extra-wide viewing angles even in direct sunlight."
Though we wont be trying some of these claims out we figured it would still be a good investment.
We shopped around on stores and online and found a place that sold it $200 cheaper than the stores online, so we jumped on the deal and now we are so excited to be able to document our adventures again!!! Stay tuned, lots of pics might be coming this way!!!!
