Fujifilm’s Ruggedized Camera: BIGJOB HD-3W

Fujifilm has this BIGJOB HD-3W rugged camera, intended for tough usage in the construction industry, or anywhere else that could subject it to abuse: a sandy beach, freezing snow, watery park or even shooting in the rain.
The HD-3W is so ruggedly built it could survive sleet and snow, hail and rain, fire and brimstone (well, that last pair could be stretching it a bit). It’s got seals in the right places to protect it from water and dust, plus tough rubber exterior to cushion it from the rough-and-tumble. It can withstand a drop of 70cm, or about the height from your pant pockets.
Why it even promises to be a decent camera: 6 megapixels, 3X optical zoom, 2.5-inch LCD screen, and up to ISO 1600. The HD-3W has 23MB of internal memory, but you’d want to use its xD slot for more storage space because it can also record 30fps VGA movies.
Don’t take it diving, though. It’s scared of sharks.
