Hi,

I am looking for a waterproof camera.  From previous postings I 
know all the good things fellow PWisers  posted about the Pentax 
camera which is a bit more water resistant than advertised -forgot 
the model name.  Anybody out there with some hand on 
experience with the Canon Sure shot A1? I would be interested in 
learning about its image quality, waterproofness, durability .  I 
could get one for CAN$ 200, what is considerably less than the 
Pentax would cost me, and since it is camera no. 4 in my 
collection I think I could live with the fixed 35mm lens -if the image 
quality is OK.

Appreciate your input.

Cheers

Ulli
