Finally, after a very long wait......Digital version of Waterproof Canon...(Canon PowerShot D10):

Film version (Canon Sure Shot A-1)it's waterproof & that was ages ago....:

I wish for something good imaging, fast, yet, light & compact, waterproof & rugged......something better than my Olympus mju SW (waterproof) or my G10 (good camera but not waterproof)...when I don't want to lug my dslr & 17-40 / 70-200 lens....something that can withstand heavy splashing, accidental dipping, not for diving though....for sporty people or those with young kids...

I WISH

Canon can made a waterproof digital version of this:

or

or

(either dSLR mirror-shutter type or creative zoom type).....with big sensor, high ISO low noise, big aperture, wide to telezoom, non-protruding zoom lens, most importantly....WATERPROOF!
(perhaps rugged, even military specs....G-shock version!

)

the way digital cameras are made, still have a lot to desire....or Canon is giving a chance for others...
