Digital Camera Description

The Olympus Tough TG-7 is a Compact Digital Camera with a 1/2.3" sensor. Its 12 Megapixels CMOS sensor offers an ISO 100-12800 sensitivity range which is expandable to ISO 100-12800. This makes it possible to shoot hand-held in relatively low-light. With 12 MP of resolution, sharp prints are possible up to 17" x 12" at 240 DPI.

A builtin 2-Axis Image Stabilization mechanism allows the Olympus Tough TG-7 to compensate for camera shake up to 2.5-Stops beyond hand-holding.

This camera features a hybrid shutter that can expose for 1/2000 to 4s. With a fastest shutter-speed of 1/2000, fast action can easily be frozen. Given that is does not support very slow shutter-speeds, this camera is unsuitable for night photography.

The Olympus Tough TG-7 features a 25-point Contrast-Detect AF system. Manual Focus is also available.
