Olympus expands Tough compact camera series with flagship TG-6

Olympus has expanded its Tough compact camera series with the launch of the Tough TG-6 (£449.99), a durable 12 megapixel snapper that sets the benchmark for combining image quality with convenience, portability, and most of all, ruggedness. The dust-proof, water-proof, shock-proof, and crush-proof camera improves on its predecessor with all new underwater modes and more versatile macro photo options. It also includes a new LCD monitor with a 1.04 million dot revolution for better visitibility, a built-in 2x digital tele-converter allowing for 8x zoom, and a nifty anti-reflective sensor coating for reduced ghosts and flaring.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
