I have heard a lot about this camera but as it is an older model I have been unable to test it in any UK camera shops. In the UK it is called the FT1 but I believe abroad it is called the TS1.
I currently have a Olympus Tough 6000 which looks great, but is really slow & the picture quality not even as good as my lower resolution Samsung L77 (I love this camera). I have tried the new range of Olympus cameras in the Tough range & was still quite unimpressed. I go mountain biking, sailing, power boating & to festivals which is what I want the camera for.
I have been on many review sites about the camera & have given it really good scores but they have also done this for my Olympus camera (my score wouldn't get anywhere near).
Are there better options? I heard Sony has an expensive & rare model, Ricohs I don't like, Fujifilms look a bit breakable & also Casio who are new to waterproof/rugged camera.
I know this is a bit of a broad question but any help would be great!
