If you’ve been keeping track, I’ve had a chance to look at a couple of rugged cameras already. In the past couple of months, I’ve been able to look at the PENTAX Optio WG-2 and the Panasonic Lumix DSC-TG20, both very fine rugged cameras with their own unique strengths. So far, I’ve found that rugged cameras … Continue reading »
