While it’s hard to hurt this rugged camera, you might think that there is a sacrifice on image quality, but there is no sacrifice of image quality, and taking blurry photos is no longer a problem with the sensor-shift image stabilization that compensates for camera shake to keep your shots steady allowing the camera capture great images. Other great features of this camera are the waterproof seals and gaskets that keep water out so you can take pictures as deep as 33 feet underwater, not that canoers or kayakers need a camera in 33 feet of water, but it’s just nice to know.

Maybe the greatest feature of this camera for paddlers, besides the obvious waterproof, is the metal body and shock absorbing construction that can withstand a drop from up to 6.6 ft. When I’m canoeing I’m always throwing gear in and out of the boat, crawling on rocks, hiking up over mountains and hills, and throwing gear around at the campsite. I go paddling with the intention of getting some great action shots and am often reaching for my camera to snap a quick photo, and often throw the camera to the bottom of the boat just seconds before hitting the rapids. That is where this tough heavy duty camera will work best for canoers or kayakers.
And don’t worry about this camera freezing as it will perform at below-freezing temperatures. This camera is also rated to withstand a 220 pounds of weight which is a big plus.

After watching the video if you are still questioning if this is a good waterproof camera consider that this camera is now the most popular waterproof point and shoot digital waterproof camera available today and about 79% of the people who researched this camera online actually purchased it.
