We have been using a Canon PowerShot D10 for about a year
now, and it takes great cave photos. We use it hard and do not
protect it beyond a sleeve made of a couple of beer koozies. Limited
flash, as with any compact camera, but definitely hardy enough. It's
waterproof to 10 m and shockproof to 1.2 m fall, has image
stabilization and internal zoom, so no external moving parts except
the buttons. Has gotten great reviews. This is the best compact
camera for caving that I have
seen.

I doubt the flash is bright enough for cave photography, but is any
pocket size camera?
There is probably some cave passage where you don't want to drag photo
equipment, like beyond the sump in Honeycreek. This camera
might come in handy there.
