Canon Powershot D20
For a camera specialist company like Canon, the D20 is a bit of a surprise. The somewhat chunky compact features a unique design with some counterintuitive elements, like the fact the shutter button is on the right, and yet you can only attach a wrist strap to the left-hand-side of the camera.

Fantastic at the water parks...
This point and shoot camera is IMO fantastic. If you want something that will survive the surf at Typhoon Lagoon, record you kid on her first descent of Summit Plummet at Blizzard Beach then this is the camera.

- tough
- rugged
- GPS
- lens-based stabilisation

Great Gift!
I got this for my son because he enjoys paddleboarding and he loves this camera. He doesn't have to worry about getting it wet and can even take video
