I have a DSLR which I'm very happy with and that takes great shots. However, it doesn't exactly slip into a pocket and there's no way I'd take it to the beach or snowboarding. I also see lots of great shots as I'm walking to work etc so I want to get a compact so that I always have a camera with me. So, what I'm looking for is a "take everywhere" compact (and I mean "everywhere"!).
A bulletproof G11 is what I really want, but I don't know if they exist. There are plenty of waterproof/freezeproof/shockproof compacts out there, but I want something that I can really take control of, and preferably with RAW capability.
Does such a thing exist? If not, given that I'm prioritising the rugged nature and portability over manual controls, what would be the best compromise?
