I had a Casio EX-V8 for several years now (at least 3) and it took it's second bad fall while I was on vacation in Europe. It will still turn on to show me the pictures I've taken, but won't take new pictures
As far as the trip goes, luckily my brother just got a new Canon T2i so I bought his Xti from him. I love it and it takes great pictures, but I'm looking for a replacement point and shoot that will fit in my pocket (so I can go to say, the barn and take pictures of my cattle, ah the life of an animal science student). It'd be a huge plus if it was "shock resistant" and waterproof would be nice too, though my family does have a canon point and shoot with a waterproof housing that we go diving with, so that's not imperative.
It also needs to be able to shoot video, since the Xti can't.
The EX-V8 had 7x optical zoom, which I really appreciated over the 3x in my previous camera.
any suggestions? My birthday is next Saturday so I might be making it a birthday gift.
