Used To Be Great – Waterproof Digital Camera Review
It seems it isn’t really water resistant. Once I got it back I used it another two times and had to send it back in for the same reason.
The screen would work, show menus but the camera itself wouldn’t show anything on the screen with the lens was open. It was very odd, we waited a few minutes and tried again and it worked fine.
Well, I’ve seen the results and they are fabulous! She was a little leery of taking that first underwater shot but has taken some fantastic pictures.
Also, the pictures are great quality and crisp. I use it a lot on cars, and the detail is great.
This product seems to predictably have issues so I replaced it with another manufacture. Don’t buy the Olympus Stylus Tough, your throwing good money away. But worse of all, my camera died after 5 minutes of snorkeling. This was my third under water Olympus, and seals were checked before I jumped in the water. The camera is slow and I expected that from other reviews, I can deal with that. The issue is the poor focus, sound and mid light conditions.
The biggest issue for me – the internal lenses fogged, leaving me photo impaired for the remainder of a vacation in Central America. I will not buy another Olympus. Definitely look forward to buying from seller again! You had better be a mind reader to figure out how to operate it. Great price and I like the color choice I made. Highly recommend this camera for the adventurous. Just my 2 cents! We ordered this through Amazon but they fulfilled it for Beach Camera.
I guess it’s just a sacrifice for a more durable screen. This is what I wanted for backpacking, hunting and fishing when you can’t always count on the weather here in MT. I could have not asked for a better camera for my wife. She dropped it twice the first day. So far I have used this camera to shoot pictures at monster truck rallies, a welcome home ceremony when a dear friend came back from Afghanistan ( got a great video of his family running to hug him), Washington, DC when we visited the museums, and the pool. I am very happy with my camera.
I was very happy with my old camera, so decided to replace it with the current mode. The Olympus 6020 seemed to fit the bill and came with a few new features.
The pictures come out great, as long as you have all the right settings. outdoor electric grill.
