Now for the shockproof.....not so much. After a rough snowmobile trip it did not fair so well. The shutter "tweaks out" when taking some photos and forget about videos now
My old one takes nice photos and video unders water. And it's been dropped a few times (twice on a concrete patio by my son) and it still works great. It just looks a little beat up now.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

My stylus 8k has been through the gamut of full continuous submersion, freezing temps, banged on rocks, etc etc, and still works without a hitch.
