Dear friends
I want to buy a waterproof camera. I'm not able to decide that i buy Olympus TG-810 or Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT3 or Nikon AW100. Which one has the best image quality underwater and in normal situation?

If you google for reviews, you'll get lots of different opinions from all sorts of different sources.

Forget the Olympus.

The AW100 and TS3 are equally good. But I'd go for the TS3 because of the spectacular video quality. The shape is also easier to hold underwater and the casing is made of metal (AW100 is made of plastic).

I feel Olympus TG-810 will be the best option. This is my second Olympus shock proof-waterproof camera. The first one is still great and 4 years old but I wanted the extra features in the TG-610. The in camera panorama feature is so easy to use as are all the other features. Instant video button is a big improvement. I have been using it for a month now and have no faults with this camera. We travel a lot and a tough camera is a must. The monitor has a very clear sharp image even in bright sunlight which has always been a problem with point and shoot camera's. I would highly recommend this camera.
