Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS2

Photo GalleryConclusion
Many tough cameras sacrifice image quality for robustness, but the TS2 seems to have the best of both worlds. In our tests, we found that it shot good looking photos with strong color accuracy, low noise and decent sharpness. It’s also a robust camera, handling water down to 33 feet, drops from up yo 6.6 feet and temperatures down to 14 Fahrenheit (-10 Celsius).
There are a few gotchas, though; we found that the images were not as sharp as some other cameras, and the videos that the TS2 captured had only adequate color and lacked sharpness. It is also a little more expensive than some other tough cameras: you can pick up cameras like the Canon D10 for $100 less.
