Camera question...

[gregandkelly63]

I wouldn't dare take my DSLR camera to the beach. There are 2 things that can damage a camera faster than anything. Sea water and sand. I am will not risk dropping my camera in the water or the sand. (I have never dropped my camera, but don't plan on tempting fate). My point and shoot camera is 12 megapixel and I have taken some amazing shots with it. I always have it with me in Negril!

I guess I'm okay then bringing a water proof dive camera with me?

I'm more worried about theft, a 12 megapixel camera is easy to replace, my dive camera not so much......

I think the OP is also more worried about someone "walking" off with it as opposed to the sand or water :-p
