As a busy dad, I would always grab my phone to take pictures of the kids. Sometimes it was in humid, sandy or dusty places - none of these places are suitable for the phone. Imagine the Fujifilm FinePix XP - with this robust yet handy camera I can fish, kayak or hike and take magazine-quality photos. Don't worry, the camera is waterproof. I don't know if it's related to zoom, image stabilization, or autofocus (or maybe a combination), but I've gotten more good shots than bad ones with this camera. Yes, I even took pictures underwater. Even better is the ability to wirelessly transfer photos to my phone (you need to download an app) which allows me to quickly share my photos with friends and family. This way I can keep my phone safe while we're outdoors!
