Don't make 'em like they used to...

Digital cameras, that is. Seems the wife ran over ours with the 4 wheeler, now the viewfinder is trashed and the housing doesn't fit together right anymore. Piece of junk.

Anyone know if Rubbermaid makes cameras?

Whenever your wife wants something new she probably runs over it. Be carful whenever your wife is driving.

I don;t think that's right or she would have driven over cfp years ago.

don't know of a Rubbermaid camera, but there is a rubber case you can get for the digital camera that makes it waterproof, not sure it would be 4wheeler proof though. Fisher Price toys have made a rubbercased virtually indistructable child's digi camera :lol2: :lol2: might do well.

I recently bought one of those nifty little Sony Cybershots... it's a FANTASTIC camera! I didn't think I'd like it as much as I do. Super easy to use, and a huge LCD display. Under $150 too.

I do get a little nervous when she tells me to get out and lock the hubs...

When I got home from work yesterday she'd already been to the store and got a new one, it's a Canon like the old one but it's supposedly a lot nicer (10 megapixels and all kinds of other crap), plus it was a whole lot cheaper than the old one - they really have came down. I had called her from work yesterday and she was in town, said she had to run to town for something she forgot. I could tell in her voice something wasn't right, I'm just happy it was something so trivial. Bad thing is I never had figured out how to use the old one, now I've got to start from scratch...

These 10 mp cameras are great and a very clear picture, the only downfall is that when you put the pictures into the computer they are to big to download, and to send. That's what we have found. Hope you have many years of happy photography enjoy...
