Hi Wayno
Interesting list and like any list of the "best" there will be disagreement. I have the older Canon D10 and brought the Fuji lower model for niece and nephew and can not say they lived up to the hype. Surprised that the "classic" Panasonic FT4 (I have the three) was not included. Of all the so called tough cameras that in my experience compromises the least on picture quality but things can change. General experience with the Canon and FT3 is they need bright days to get the best out of them. Disparaged the Canon D10 until brother took it to the Philippians and over there on the bright sunny days on the beach it turned in some impressive photographs. The FT3 manages low light better but this is the rub. In Tassie when you use a waterproof camera it is generally poor light resulting in average photo quality. Use a waterproof camera on the beach during summer and heck they can deliver some impressive results.
Cheers
