OLYMPUS Tough TG-6 Waterproof Camera, Red

Product Information

You may not be able to shrink yourself, but you can enter the micro world with the Olympus Tough TG-6. The camera features a 3-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 1,040,000 pixels and includes various exposure modes including aperture-priority, shutter-priority, and manual control. You can also shoot Full HD 120 fps High Speed movies with options for shooting at 240 fps for HD and 480 fps for SD.

That’s just a few of many accessories designed to help you get the best performance from your camera. This lack of innovation isn't necessarily a criticism, as photographers don’t want an overcomplicated or feature-festooned camera if they're going to be operating it with wet fingers straight out of the pool, or frozen extremities on the ski slopes, never mind underwater. For photographers who need advanced photo editing options, Pixelmator Pro for macOS offers layer-based editing, machine learning-powered adjustment and selection tools, and features such as Denoise and Super Resolution.

The OM System Tough TG-7 features an improved grip, a USB-C connector, an improved LCD screen, interval and time-lapse modes, support for vertical video shooting, support for the RM-WR1 weatherproof wireless remote and updated scene modes. Either way, it saves you having to delve fully into the extended main menu, which is accessed via its own button just underneath the d-pad. The renowned Olympus field sensor system makes it possible to record log data such as location, altitude/depth as well as air/water temperature while capturing still images or movies.

The flash can be manually controlled, in 18 increments from full power down to 1/64, and the LED lamp offers more natural looking light or fill if you don't need as much power. And that's not just when the sun goes down; when you're shooting underwater there is much less ambient light, so improved low light performance is vital for this camera. This review is about what the Olympus Tough TG-6 will let you do as a photographer and how the pictures look. We've been shooting Google's two newest smartphones on two continents: from the parks of Madrid to the mountains of Washington state and the streets of Seattle. The TG-6 is now discontinued and has been replaced by the upgraded TG-7 version which will be supplied instead.You’ll have to get used to keeping your ISO at 1600 or lower (you’ll need a steady hand for the slow shutter speed that results). You’ve already learned that new gear is not the answer to this depressing dry period you’re going through.
