A Camera for Bike Rides

I'll be going to Singapore next month. If I can afford it, I'm thinking of getting myself a nice portable digicam so I can take pictures as well when I go on my biking adventures. The Flip Ultra HD is cool at taking videos but sometimes a photo just has more impact and drama. Besides, photos occupy less drive space than videos.

The 5-megapixel Sony PSC92 that we bought back in 2004 is dead despite my effort of reviving it using fresh batteries. This time, I'm thinking of getting myself a rugged camera that's shockproof and waterproof. That way I don't have to worry about it if it suddenly rains or if I crash during rides.

Since I have no specific model in mind, I'm very open to your suggestions. Please feel free to leave your message in the comments section of this entry.

Thanks in advance!

Recently bought myself the olympus tough 8000 10m waterproof and shockproof 6ft. The cheapest I found was kimstore on sulit. Just type kimstore on sulit.com.ph and you will see it. Hope you find what you are looking for. Philip aka foreignrunner

I just bought a GE A1035 digicam, which I'd bring and use in my biking. It's very cheap at promo price of less than P5,000. The original price is less than P7,000. Masira man or mawala, medyo hindi masakit sa bulsa. He he he . . .
