What better reason to smile than when you've found a deal? How about when you've found the perfect digital camera? Our roundup focuses on a selection of digital camera deals that include the best price we've ever seen for a Pentax bundle, a crush- and waterproof digital camera that ties our Cyber Monday mention, and more.

    Price: $179 with free shipping

    Is It Worth It?: The Optio WG-2 lets photo enthusiasts have a bit of fun with their pictures, since the curious-looking camera is waterproof at depths of up to 40 feet. It's also crushproof and shockproof, so it'll endure some pretty rough handling too. Although CNET notes that the Optio WG-2 "isn't particularly fast" and laments the lack of optical image stabilization, the site ultimately deems the model to be "a lightweight, but extremely rugged compact camera with some extra features and functions you won't find in competing models."

    Features include a 3" LCD, 1080p video capture at 30fps, 5x optical zoom, 88MB internal memory, SDHC slot, USB, HDMI, and more.
