Well, my second sentence starts with 'So' which is a
direct referal to what I said in the previous
sentence. Therefore, I think if you would read me
email more carefull it would be obvious that with
'drop proof' (which are the words that the original
poster used) I mean 'waterproofness'. And no, with
'waterproofness' I don't mean you can do underwater
photography without a housing!! Also in my reply I
quoted you:

So I wonder why you suddenly are turning words back
around. Anyway, the reference you gave is exactly what
I meant and what the original poster probably also was
refering to.
