Aside from being shock-resistant from a 2.13 meter (7 feet) drop, it is also waterproof up to 3 meters (10 feet) for about an hour, dustproof and resistant to temperatures as low as -10o C (14 o F) This is the most durable digital compact camera to date and will allow for all types of users.

The Sony Cybershot DSC-W290 is a digital point and shoot camera that combines style with power and intelligence. It is available in four sophisticated colors and designed with a stylish look. The iAuto (Intelligent Auto) mode is a step beyond typical auto modes that does the following: recognizing faces, scenes, lighting conditions, and automatically adjusting camera settings to capture clearer scenes and faces with more natural skin tones and less blur. The W290 can also record HD video at 720p resolution capturing those precious moments not only in photos but also in moving images. The large 3.0-inch Clear Photo LCD display allows the user to compose, review, and share photos and videos with ease and comfort. To totally beat the competition, this camera uses a 12.1 megapixel Super HAD CCD sensor, complemented with a Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with 5x optical zoom and a 28mm wide angle lens.

The camera is equipped with a 10.0 megapixel resolution sensor and a 3.6x optical Zoom-Nikkor glass lens, which is a luxury in point and shoot types of cameras. The huge 3.0 inch high-resolution LCD makes it easy to preview shots and view pictures. It also all has an ISO 1600 setting to allow you shooting even at low lighting conditions. All these amazing features come at a surprisingly affordable price.
