- Buy an extra battery
I bought this camera to take on a week long (no electricity) dory trip down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. It took great pictures and was lots of fun to have going through the white water rapids. However, I guess because it only has an LCD display (no viewfinder) its battery only lasted through about 150 pictures. I wish I had taken an extra (charged) battery with me on the trip. You can see the pictures here (along with the ones I took with my Nikon D80) http://flickr.com/photos/lastwyf/sets/72157608374268512/

- Love These Cameras
I have now owned 4 cameras in this series and loved them. The first, the original Optio WP was resold, I broke the second one at an amusement park and bought two of these for my wife and for me.

They are waterproof! I've taken them into pools and the ocean and they take excellent shots. After loosing two digital cameras to quick dips in the lake these put all my fears to rest. I can use them in and near water without fear. Some of the underwater shots I used as cards and my 5 year old son has taken some excellent ... Read More

- well pleased
have used the Pentax W60 for several weeks now, and have been pleased with results... while not the picture quality of an SLR, it produces pictures that I am more than pleased with, as well as those on the receiving end... my requirements was something that i could hang around my neck, under a life jacket, pull out while paddling Class IV and V whitewater, point and shoot... it needed to be light, have good optical zoom, be WATERPROOF, and not require a bunch of fiddling around with... ... this camera does all that... having a wider ...

- Sent it back because the video was noisy
Lets start by saying that I loved my old Pentax Optio WP. I made the mistake of going into the water with the a little sand in the battery door causing some water damage. I bought this on to replace the WP. It actually takes really good photos. My problem is when shooting video, you can hear the lens focusing the entire time the video clip gets played back. I sent an email to Pentax but received no response. So I sent it back to Amazon. Their return policy is great and I've already gotten my refund.

- Great "Fun" Camera
UPDATE: This review was updated on 9/1/08 to reflect the announcement of the Olympus 1050SW.

I am a self confessed camera freak. I have owned the Pentax WPi, W10, W30, and now, the W60. My other primary cameras are the Canon SD 870 (with waterproof housing for diving) and a Canon SLR system with L series lenses, etc. I live in Hawaii and I travel for a living and I can say that without a doubt, the Pentax W series of cameras have been my "go to" cameras for any activities that involve water, snow, sand, or dirt. They take ... Read More
