Canon PowerShot D20 review Review
The PowerShot D20 is the best rugged, waterproof camera I've tested. Canon has made very few compromises and paired good -- although not perfect -- performance with a striking design.
Pros:
- GPS photo tagging
- Waterproof
- Can withstand impact
- Good colour reproduction
- Cool design
Cons:
- Some chromatic aberration
- Grain apparent at conservative sensitivities
- Wind noise on movies
- even with wind filter active

Canon PowerShot D20
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.
Cons:
- Large, even for a rugged camera
- 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 has finally got round to expanding its range of waterproof compacts with the PowerShot D20 (the D10 was launched at the beginning of 2009, after all).
Pros:

- shockproof from 1.5 m
- Excellent macro mode
- Good image quality up to 400 ISO
- Clear
- user-friendly interface
- GPS with journey tracker function
Cons:
- Handling could be improved
- Photos with flash are slow to save
- Lens doesn't give the most even results at wide-angle settings
- From 800 ISO
- noise management is a bit disappointing for a BSI CMOS sensor
- No A,S
- M modes

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
- Large Clear LCD
Cons:
- Lag / Shutter Delay
