Waterproof digital camera is truly designed for rugged and tough. It’s strong enough for hard usage and weather resistant - so you can take your best shot without too much careful in every situation. Indoor and outdoor, under the rain and under the sunshine, on land and underwater, with weatherproof ability you will never miss your impressive photo scenes even in extreme activities. Waterproof camera is a perfect gear for your travel and adventure.
Principle of waterproof camera is similar to underwater housing that is using rubber seal to keep out water and humidity. By putting it between the seam of casing, control button and the lid of battery, memory card, connector compartment. Although this type of camera will not damaged by water but it can be drowned. So if you want to use waterproof digital camera in the water like sea or lake, you should use it with a float strap.

What Can It Do?
It can do everything what point-and-shoot camera can do. And there are something that point-and-shoot cameras cannot do but waterproof cameras can.
Water Activities - It can use as underwater digital camera, it can submerge up to 40 feet underwater (some models). This way you can take it to beach and enjoy your water activities, such as Fishing, Paddling, Canoeing, Kayaking, Boating, Surfing, Snorkeling, Scuba Diving or even Swimming in the pool! More, the latest models offer more functions to easily create superior quality pictures.
Extreme Activities - For those who adore adventure challenges, waterproof camera is your ideal gear. With a variety of features such as waterproof, shockproof, freezeproof, weatherproof, dustproof and crushproof abilities that allow you to still photographs and record video of all kinds of tough travel such as Camping, Hiking, Climbing, Caving, Mountain Biking, Skiing or even Snowboarding.
Value - After a lot of waterproof camera reviews, I found that it is a good choice to save more money instead of buying waterproof case or housing to protect your compact camera from your excitement activities. Pay less but get more features and wider range of use with waterproof digital camera.
