Help choosing compact camera - looking at Lumix FT5

I currently have an old IXUS 860IS along with the genuine divers case for which is great for on holiday taking pictures of the kids on the beach etc,even though it does make the whole package a bit bulky, but the camera is getting a bit temperamental these days and I would like to replace it.

I like the idea of a tough camera so I can continue to use it at the beach, in the pool etc.but I also want to use it when I'm out and about.

I do have a Lumix G6 which I will use if I know I have the carry capacity and is safe to use it, I also have a Canon 40D although I haven't used that much since getting the G6.

But I want a camera I can chuck in a pocket or my wife can pick up and use straight away.

I know there are compromises on quality with a tough camera, but will the quality of the FT5 exceed the old IXUS I have.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
