NIKON COOLPIX AW130 WATERPROOF AND SHOCKPROOF CAMERA
One of the worst and most unfortunate events that can happen to you while on vacation or on a short trip is to accidentally drop your camera in a body of water or on a hard surface and damage it beyond repair. If you are one of those guys with butter fingers then you will be thrilled to know that Nikon’s Coolpix AW130 camera is geared towards preventing damage from falling or water seeping into it. This Nikon camera is essentially an upgraded version of the Coolpix AW120, albeit only when it comes to its durability. Its specifications are, more or less, identical to the AW120, which doesn’t mean that this camera brings nothing new to the fold, quite the contrary, because it is capable of surviving a fall from 7 feet and depths of up to 100 feet. Most camera’s nowadays require additional housing to be able of such feats.

This model also uses 3 inch high-res OLED display and features built-in Wi-Fi and GPS.
