Compact for OAP with poor sight

[winchman]

Morning
Father In Law needs a new compact camera.
It musb be cheap £60-£100, but most importantly he isnt very technical so must be an easy to use point and shoot.
He also has poor eye sight, so what would you reccomend?
His vurrent Fuji I think keeps giving out of focus images, we think its him using the wrong setting but possibly its just old and had it

Wait couple of years and get him a ipad 2. I see lots of people using it as a camera. makes me laugh but very suited for people with poor eyesight.

Good idea, but hes 72 so he wants one now,I can see him paying for a Ipad though about £100 would be the top orf his budget, hes a bit clumsey too so he would drop it and knowing his luck it would smash LOL

Hi
Olympus Tough TG-320 it's shockproof waterproof and freeze proof great if you say he's a bit clumsy although it is 115 so slightly over your budget!?
