Fujifilm's latest rugged compact camera, the FinePix XP120, has been designed with families in mind, and offers a 16.4 million pixel 1/2.3-inch sensor, along with a 5x optical zoom (28-140mm equivalent).
This was the cheapest waterproof camera that I could find that wasn't utter junk. So the dry shots aren't too sharp, quite grainy in the dark, and it will take a bit of post-processing to get the colours back, but this was perfect for kids and around water.
Is the XP120 an outstanding camera? For the money, I think it is: while its image quality and controls are nothing more than decent, its true appeal lies in its tough, nigh-on indestructible build quality, small size and affordable asking price. If you’re looking for a rugged cam that delivers superb images every time you click that shutter button, you should look at something a bit more expensive like the Olympus TG-5. But if you want a cheap, rugged compact for photography situations where you don’t want to risk wrecking your smartphone, look no further than this.

We don't review too many affordable point-and-shoot cameras these days – call it a symptom of everyone having a good quality snapper in their pocket. Thanks, smartphones!
I bought this camera for my hawaiian honeymoon and was terribly disappointed. Yes it works underwater and the housing on mine was sound, it survived underwater and seemed sturdy. The picture quality was terrible.
Took the camera on my vacation & it took on water right away!! This camera sucks!! Not sure who to return it to. Last camera on buy on line!! Not happy!!
