I think they also have > waterproof ones. Has anyone "tested" their waterproofness? I always keep a cheapo, disposable Fuji waterproof camera in my bag of kayaking stuff. I keep it tethered to the waistline shockcord of my spray skirt, and it nestles in the water that puddles there while I paddle. Since it is attached by a long rubber band kind of thing, I don't have to free it to take a photo. I just stretch it up to eye level and snap away. I have had excellent luck with these. I find that the photos aren't bad, the camera itself is nice and lightweight, and it can withstand alot of banging around. The only downside is not knowing whether the plastic housing is recycled after the film has been developed. I hate to think that I am adding to some landfill with every camera I send in to the developer. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Sep 20 1999 - 15:54:05 PDT
