Olympus Stylus Tough 8000 (mju Tough 8000) review

Just saw a TV news report:
http://www.chbcnews.ca/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=18130
in which a woman dropped her camera (pretty sure it was an Oly 8000) from a bridge into a river, from which it was carried into a lake. After five weeks it was "caught" by a fisherman, and returned to her. She was found from the plate on a vehicle on one of the photos. The camera still works, and she claims it gives her better results than four others she owns. I don't have one of these, but give it a five for construction! Other ratings follow those given by owners.

Problems:

Not applicable.
