minox do a great little waterproof camera. perfect for hunting/stalking/fishing/mountaineering/etc.

I think I paid around £25 in a super sale, but I can see I got a great deal!!!

it's a bit clunky in its menu's, but takes good pictures. it's out and out an outdoor activity camera so does what it says on the tin.

I would recommend Canon compacts, the Ixus and Powershot ranges. They use CCD sensors rather than CMOS for better image quality and their software is pretty straightforward if you aren't really into photography. The Ixus is a very compact version, the 220HS a good mid range camera in stainless steel. The Powershot D10 is waterproof and shockproof and with a 12.1MP almost made for the use you are likely to put it to.
If the two quoted are out of your price bracket there are others available in Canon's range of a lower spec which may fit the bill.

I have an Olympus Mju 850 SW and it has been absolutely fantastic, I take it with me when fishing, hunting and snowboarding and with it being totally waterproof and shockproof you don't have to worry about it getting wet or knocked around.

I bought a Canon G12 camera last Christmas and it`s perfect. Takes great pictures and is easy to use.

one of these:

Panasonic Lumix TZ20

or get the TZ10 which will be cheaper now. Have a look in the pictures section at the 284m roe doe I took a picture of with the TZ10.
