I would still be wary. last year we had our camera working (and in a plastic box) and it got bumped by a tetra i believe. No visible damage (we still have it) but it didn't work after that. these cameras are more fragile than most people think; the power switch should not be your only concern.

Re: Cameras Getting Smashed
I think that one camera will break(as in:shatter ) and three to four will just quit working per regional.
