Japanese company Olympus will release a camera that can resist just about anything. The U1030SW features a 10Mpix CCD and can be dropped from a height of 2m max, support a pressure of 100kg on its body, and can be dropped into 10m max of water without suffering from damage. If that’s not impressive, then I don’t know what is. No word on pricing or availability for this rough and tough camera.
