I recently purchased the Pentax Optio W90 as a great little walking around camera. It is dustproof, drop proof and water proof so it should be good to survive hikes, swims and climates I would not take my DSLR into. It also has all of the features one would expect in a modern point and shoot camera, such as face and smile detection and HD video. It also has a very nifty digital microscope mode and three LEDs on the front to help with super macro shots. Other scene modes round out a very complete feature set (pet mode, landscape, night scene and night portrait modes, etc). This is not a full review of the camera, there are plenty of those already around on the Internet; this is just a summary with some shots taken in my first few days with the camera.
