Thanks to Wolfy for writing a review for his Sony Cybershot TX10 waterproof, shockproof point-and-shoot camera. It’s good timing since summer has arrived and I’m sure a lot of our readers are looking at waterproof pocket cameras for vacations. Last summer I reviewed the Sony TX5 and really enjoyed it. In fact, it was my favorite rugged point-and-shoot camera ever. So when I saw Wolfy’s well written, positive TX10 review I knew I had to make it a Featured User Review.

Summary:
This camera is GREAT! If you are looking for a light durable, waterproof, shockproof camera that takes good snapshots on an SD card. The camera takes really good photos, and the in camera touchup and features are really amazing. The lens is 28 mm equivalent which is way wider than normal P/S cameras. It starts up relatively fast and shoots fast. The isweep panorama feature is awesome. It has in camera HDR which really only produces good images in certain situations (It makes people look orange).
I bought this camera to capture good images and video when I didn’t want to haul my 7d. For family trips, around the house, ski/bike/climbing trips, etc. It has been the perfect camera for me for that. The menus and settings are easy enough to use. They’re not amazing in terms of user interface and heuristics, but they are ok…
