Thanks for the replies guys, the fuji seems like a solid deal and i like that its waterproof. But i took a look at the pentax and thats a pretty nice camera but the price is a little high so i may need to re think how much im willing to spend and what exactly im looking for out of this camera. but i think it definetly needs to be waterproof, dont wanna get caught in the rain and forget the camera is in the vest, or accidently just drop it.
