The Exilim EX-G1 is a slim camera that can shoot in tough conditions. However, we were not impressed with the image quality.

These two cameras are quite similar in many ways: they are priced about the same, have a similar resolution and a similar zoom range. Both cameras are equally tough, handling water down to 33 feet, drops from 7 feet and temperatures down to 14 degrees farenheight.
But they are different in other ways: the EX-G1 is very thin (at just 0.78 inches), while the D10 is a chunky camera that looks rather like a toy. But the advantage of being thicker is that the D10 has a better lens, which leads to better image quality: we found that the D10 images were much, much sharper than the EX-G1.
The deciding factor would be the balance between size and image quality. The Canon D10 is the better camera, but has a chunky, clunky design. The EX-G1 is much smaller, sleeker and more stylish, but takes worse photos.
