TG320
I was very impressed with this camera when I bought it 5 months ago, and I took 1500 pictures with it before I took it snorkeling. On the first day I took it no more than 3 feet under water and only pressed the ON/Off button and the shutter button and all was OK. On the second day I tried to change the camera setting about three feet under water to enable the underwater mode and the flask. That is when TG320 froze up and the LCD went dark. Salt water leak! I dried the camera with a towel to find where the water had enter. The battery compartment was dry, but the bottom (contacts) of the SD card was wet. This makes me suspect that the water did not enter through the battery door, but though the OK button. That is the end of this camera.
It is still under warranty, but I doubt it will be honored. This is a good outdoors camera, no worry about sand, rain or dust, a little slow for action pictures, beats any cell-phone any day, but don't get it under salt water. If It had not leaked I would have given it 3 stars.
