Specifications: Finally! A normal looking waterproof camera! I have always wanted to get a rugged digital camera but those that were available on the market have very odd designs. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 digital camera has a 12.1MP resolution and 4.6x in optical zoom. It has a 4.9-22.8mm lens and a built-in flash. It has both optical and digital image stabilization. This model also records HD videos.
Design: Unlike the Canon D10 (that looks like a toy) and the Olympus Tough (that looks plain odd), the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 camera actually looks normal, even a little stylish so you can actually use in on a regular night out without attracting strange glares. It is a compact model, measuring at 3.9 x 0.9 x 2.5 inches. It comes with orange, dark green and silver. The external casing has a brushed metal finish with tiny screws on each corner. To date, it is just the most stylish/best-looking waterproof/shockproof camera in the market.
Features & Performance: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 digital camera has a wide array of customizations and close to 2 dozen shooting models. They include Pet, Food, Snow, Beach, Night mode and many more. The controls are well laid out and very intuitive. Most importantly, the image quality of the photos taken was very good for its class. The photos had accurate colors with good exposures and overall, being very natural looking. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 digital camera can withstand falls of up to 5ft and underwater depths of 10 feet.
To date, this is my favorite rugged digital camera model. I love it for the fact that you can also use it as a regular camera without looking like an oddball. It is also the fastest rugged digital camera model, with a shot to shot time of just 1.9 seconds. The HD (720p) videos recorded were also very good and you can use the zoom feature while recording.
