Olympus 790 SW
Comments:
If used properly this rugged camera is well worth the money and makes you feel a little more manly into the bargain
Review Verdict: As if this camera wasn't distinctive enough, Olympus has also decided to supply it in a number of shades - ours was a kind of burnt orange. Elsewhere the silver edging makes it look pretty smart, and it doesn't look rugged in the way the overly macho way

Olympus mju 790 SW
Comments:
The Olympus mju 790 SW is a compact that loves the active life. Waterproof and shockproof, it doesn't forsake smooth styling to be robust, and while the toughness will hit you in the pocket, Olympus hasn't skimped on photo quality or features
Review Verdict: The Olympus mju 790 looks good, handles well and takes respectable quality images. A poor screen is the only real let-down, but you're paying a premium for the waterproof, shockproof, even freezeproof ruggedness
