Nikon 8700 WAS all wet!
Maybe I posted about getting the CP 8700 all wet! Well, would you believe -
it COMPLETELY dried out and is my camera for hiking, again. Took off that pl cir filter and all shots are now sharply focused. This is why I always buy Nikon - it takes the abuse - every piece of equipment I own (all Nikon) has been dropped at one time or another and this CP 8700, was wet, once before. I carry this little gem on hikes in the rain, sun, etc., etc. Thanks for listening. Hiker |

Well, one of my CP 2000's survived a drop from nipple-height onto rocks -- and I use it still. However, another CP 2000 in my underwater housing did _not_ survive flooding in salt water.
