    It is a pretty cool thing to have on vacation, and 400 isn't a hell of alot of $.

    Oh, I almost forgot. Legos are great.

    Yeah, I thought it was too good to be true when the post said "diving", but sadly the mfr. spec is as you say:


    Water Proof 3.0m ( IEC60529 IPX8 compliant )


    That's snorkeling. And crap snorkeling at that.

    Did they get rid of the Leica lens? Last time I saw this reviewed, it was featuring a leica lens, which did increase my interest in it.

    I think the little L in the lower right corner is a leica logo. If not, I'll be pissed because I already pre-ordered one of these.

    @SuprXY: It was there in the previous review as well, but it said Leica under the viewfinder and also mentioned it in review. This is missing in both counts here.

    @BeerManMike: Color on waterproof items should be expected, as you will probably be using them outside, and helps find them.

    Hence the charcoal option, which I would go for as well for general use.


    @McNugget911_GitEmSteveDave:


    Agreed, I'd want an even brighter orange or a yellow for diving, etc.

    Are you sure about those zoom specs for the ZS1 & ZS3? As pictured, they both claim to have only 12x zoom.

    Why do I find Torx screws so attractive? For some reason, when I see them on a product, they just scream, "I'm rugged, SteveDave. Now take me!"

    I like the idea of a rugged camera, and this one seems very nice indeed. I like the fact that it has almost a 5x zoom that is internal, and the full HD video is good too, assuming that it can zoom while filming. I'm a bit spoiled by the 10x zoom I have on my current Lumix though, and $400 is a bit spendy these days.

    A wiseman once told me... All cellphone companies want to do is f**k you up the a**, so you're better off finding the one with the smallest dick.

    @hefavitzen: So you know you left the first comment, then felt compelled to leave a SECOND comment declaring "firsties"? A comment which could NEVER be first, b/c there already was a first comment.


    You sir, are a moron. I only hope you have enough brain cells to use the final bullet on yourself when you realize the Grimace is coming to stick each of your fingers into a 9 amp variable speed drill with a 3/4" chuck, then tightening said chuck, before running the drill at full speed. B/c once he does that, you are at his mercy. And before you think of using the bullet on the Grimace, remember that Nothing Can Kill The Grimace.

    @hefavitzen: you make an excellent point, though the blue one makes a lot less sense for a waterproof camera. Drop that thing in the water (I've done that) and you'll never see it again. That's why I want all my rugged cameras in orange from now on.
