The Canon PowerShot D20 ($349.99 direct) is a very tough 12-megapixel camera with a fun aqua and black design and a sharp 5x zoom lens. It can go as deep as 33 feet underwater, survive drops up to five feet, and operate in temperatures as low as 14°F.

  • So-so speeds.

Good quality, interesting deign

Got this just before Christmas and have tried it underwater already and it works well. Design/ handling was a little hard to get used to with the strap being on the wrong side. A bit heavier than I expected but overall good quality and reputable name for getting those special moments captured on...

Canon PowerShot D20 review

Rugged, waterproof cameras are perfect for the chronically clumsy, but Canon seems to have a more glamorous group in mind for the D20. Its sweeping contours look like something we'd expect to find in a surf shop, especially in the blue finish we were sent for testing.

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.

Pros:
  • Easy to Use
  • Good Battery Life
