I am a professional photogerpher, (who couldn't spell if his life depended on it) and I was surrprized to find a camera that is suppsoed to be weather-proof. So, I bought it just to test it out and see if I could buy more for my magazine pictures. (Sorry, I can't tell you which one) One of my bosses wanted pictures of models in the rain but we didn't have the right equitment for that. I told her about this camera and she said go for it. I bought it, used it, and was over-joyed at the clearness, sharpness, and the fact that the pictures came out excellent IN THE RAIN! I would highly recomend this camera if you plan on taking pictures in inclimte weather. I've only tried it in the rain, but I'm sure I won't be disappointed when I try it in other kinds of weather! Get it! I promise it's good!

The fact that the camera is rugged and is designed for outdoor use was a draw for me. However, I was quickly disappointed with some of the features. First off, there is no lens cap. Since I was going to use this in a dusty desert climate, this was a big issue. While it took decent pics in outdoor daylight, dim light pics turned out grainy or had unwanted lines in them. Also, the zoom feature was only digital, not optical, which causes further graininess. Most outdoors enthusiasts I know want a quality zoom for getting those distance, or hard to reach shots.
