Camera help-What do you use to take your Negril pics?

[Rambo]

reviews are about even,,,Canon seems to lead with good batt life,but Pana seems to take the photo quicker, with little "shutter lag".........Image Stab about the same, Canon lower in Op Zoom, (by a lot).................??? might have to chose because of color....lol
or "gut feeling"...lol

Oh gosh Rambo... Is this what it has boiled down to? Color? .... LOL... That still doesn't help because they both come in silver/gray.. LOL uuhh Boy..

Thanks for all the good info/advice, ya'll. I favorited that link to the camera and am thinking about the camera bag too..not sure yet which route I will go now, as I prolly would save money just getting a waterproof case, but at the same time, I spend a lot of time in the wata, period, not just snorkeling and would be taking a lot of 'wet pics'. Either way, it's in my budget to get a digital camera by August.

Canon & Panasonic are both good brands. My Panasonic is 2 yrs old now, and is still as much camera as I need. 10MP -18X

The Canon is cool but not great when it starts to get dark. We have one and I love it for daytime shots but right after sunset..not so hot.

Waterproof - Olympus!

Nikon for a good DSLR

Panasonic Lumix for a good point and shoot.

Opps..

I have all 3.

Waterproof - Olympus! (great during the day and in full sun, but not so hot in low light, but fun to walk the beach and not care if it gets wet when you take a dip and fun taking it snorkeling) This is my day camera.

Nikon for a good DSLR - this is my expensive one that I dont take on day drinking bar hopping down the beach.

Panasonic Lumix for a good point and shoot. (great in low light) This one works great at night in low light when I dont want to bring my big expensive camera.
