I think that the TS2 is no langer available, as the TS3 is currently being phased out in place of the TS4. This post actually prompted me to FINALLY buy my TS3. I've been waiting for at least 8 months... I'm grouchy today and needed a cheer up... this is it!! lol

The best part about this camera is that you can take amazing macro shots from 1.25" away. I looked and looked and looked for another point and shoot camera that does this... couldn't find one. My wife has a Panasonic camera, and I love it. I'm sure that I'll love this one just as much.

It is a little over the $200 you budget for, but IMO the macro shots will be well worth it. I paid $350 w/tax and shipping at Mcbain. If there's one by you, you can save $10. If you buy from the states, you can get it for $275. I paid the extra $75 for the easy canadian warranty.

I've got an olympus TG-310 that I picked up just before christmas through airmiles. I used it when I was in cuba and was happy with the pictures it took.
They've now got the tough 8010 at Bestbuy for $190. That one is good up to 33 feet down, mine is only 16.

Been thinking about the TS3 as well. Quick question, though. My wife has a Panasonic ZS-6 but on the underwater SCN setting, the macro function is disabled. Is this true of the TS3?
