Looking for a camera that can take high quality action/motion pictures without all the blur, and also small enough to carry around in my pocket when riding. I don't know if this is a feature but I like taking pictures of jumps and sometimes its hard to pin point when your at your peak. Is there a feature that allows you to take multiple snap pictures in a row with just one push of the button?
Thanks

I have always used Sony Cameras when it comes to digital. Bulletproof, Easy to use and understand and everyone of them I have owned always has a "burst" setting where it will take 5 or 10 pics in a row with one push of the button. The one I have now is a DSC-N1. It is a touch screen and it has been really reliable. It is 8.1 mega pixel (I'm sure the new ones are higher but this still takes really nice shots) I doubt this model is still made but I am sure there is something they make to replace it OR look for a used one. It also takes really nice movies. I have tried other cameras but Sony always seems to be the simplest to use and has always taken the beating I give them.Plus the "memory stick" is on most newer laptops and printers so I can just take the stick and plug it right in. No cord to mess with.

Yeah that burst setting is really what I'm looking for. Thanks

I have an Olympus Stylus Tough 8010; 14 mpxs, waterproof to 33ft, shockproof from a 6.6ft drop, crushproof up to 220lbs. I take it snowmobiling and jetskiing, and it works very well in not great environments. The 720p videos and rapid shoot mode are perfect for this type of activity. I would rather use an SLR for nice photos, but I am not afraid to take this out on the jetski with its floating tether in big waves.

Wow that's a heavy duty camera for sure!

Looks like a lot of crap to have to deal with. I know a TY user using the below camera and the video from it is beautiful. Not sure if it does stills, but as far as video this is what I would go with:
