Optio WP is growing on me, although the battery life is a bit of an 
issue - I go through one a day. Reliable, and the filter in front of the 
lens seems to stay miraculously free of salt spray. Bottom line is I now 
always have it with me in my boat. Here are a couple of recent Optio WP 
Galleries from the Caithness, northern Scotland, and Moray coast, north 
east Scotland:
