I'm looking for a new waterproof kayaking camera, and I'm down between 
these two: Olympus Stylus 720 SW and the Pentax Optio W30.  

I currently have the older Pentax Optio 43WR, and, while this camera 
takes great pictures and is definitely waterproof, I hate it because the 
LCD screen is basically not visible in sunlight.   Hence, I'm currently 
leaning towards the Olympus.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

John
