  • Today we're unboxing what might be the toughest camera you'll be able to find! The Olympus TG-6 is both super durable but very unique and I'm incredibly excited to get it out of the box and see what it can do!
    Today we'll open it up and see what actually comes with it and see what you can initially get out of the camera.

    I have the tough 3 for about 4 years and take it to Hawaii, the pool, rafting, etc and it has been great. It shoots 1080p which is excellent. The f2.0 is very helpful and the different underwater modes do a great job on underwater color correction... that is for the $350 price it was.

    Its also got a very good macro feature called microscope that enables you to take shots close with detail.

    Everytime I think I'm going to switch from Olympus, I can't because I don't want to give up a feature for image quality or auto focus performance from another brand. With video, it's not Olympus strong point and I don't think your going to be blown away by this camera. I am hitting limits with the contrast auto focus that is holding me back and many brands are catching up on the feature side that Olympus has had. I really hope the next E-M5 has phase detection and hits it out of the park for video. Maybe they will keep me as a customer and possibly a good review from you. Always enjoy your videos!

    Hi there Gary just want to apology for missing your live stream's lately but I'm always thinking and advising people to watch your show if they need any camera advice.

    For a "tough" camera, the audio was surprisingly good. Indoor video was unimpressive, for that price point.

  • @Carolyne_games
    @Carolyne_games 5 років тому

    For a tough outdoors camera the indoor footage looks surprisingly usable. It looked ok once the focus locked on to your face. If properly mounted it might be kind of usable even indoors.

    I considered the Olympus toughcams back in my point and shoot days. Nice to see you consider this, it looks to have kept the same general design sonic guess it works quite well. Have fun, I never got to play around with one.

    • @josephfrechette9916
      @josephfrechette9916 4 роки тому

      This is a great camera even if you have a proper DSLR. It shoots amazing macro photos and because of its size it’s easier to position it for the perfect shot.

    I had the Olympus tg-870 with the flip screen, best camera I've ever had. Just recently broke but I put that thing through every scenerio. Always carried my sony and and tg-870.... Sad it broke but opens the window for an upgrade

    This makes a great companion to an action camera. The TG6 is great at the things GoPro is lousy at - zoom lens, close-up, and macro, while GoPro is great at being small, hyperlapse, and wide angle.

    Of course what I really want to see is how tough is it? But, I don't expect you to take it mountain climbing and toss is down the mountain to see if it still works when it lands at the bottom. So how do you determine durability when that is the main selling point of a camera?

  • @markattardo
    @markattardo 5 років тому

    Never had a tough camera. I have a 7 megapixel waterproof Pentax with a 3x zoom purchased a long time ago. It was great on the kayak and shot some nice pics back in the day. I think it shot 480P video and use that feature while sailing my kayak. 🤣 ALWAYS kept it in a pocket on my PFD. It outlasted a few other regular point n shoots. I bet it would still work if I bought a battery for it. Anyway, there's definitely a market for something like this, but I'd be leaning more towards stills.
    BTW, did you change your overhead setup? It might be my monitor settings, but it looked razor sharp today.

    The whole rugged camera market has been in stagnation for ages. It's too bad that this is the best it gets spec wise (large aperture lens, RAW recording, etc). There was a line of waterproof rugged Olympus cameras before this one that had an actual flip screen, but they discontinued it for whatever reason. So I'll give Olympus props for at least trying hard than other manufacturers. ;D What I'd like to see are larger sensors and wider aperture lenses (with a full set of photographer settings/features). Hmm, now that I think of it.. Nikon had the AW1 which is probably the best there is in a camera like this, but that mount didn't survive due to poor sales. :(
