Week 212 - Canon WP-1

Canon WP-1, a photo by pho-Tony on Flickr.

A rugged "sports" camera for taking on outdoor pursuits, the "WP" in the name stands for "weatherproof" not "waterproof" - an important distinction to make, as at first glance this looks like an underwater camera. Reading the manual confirms that immersion in water would destroy it, but we have plenty of rain in the UK, so I expect it will have some exposure to the elements this week.
