The Olympus Stylus Tough-6000 is a Ultra-Compact Digital Camera with a 1/2.3" sensor. Its 10 Megapixels CCD sensor offers an ISO 50-1600 sensitivity range which is expandable to ISO 50-1600. With 10 MP of resolution, sharp prints are possible up to at 240 DPI.
A builtin Image Stabilization mechanism allows the Olympus Stylus Tough-6000 to compensate for camera shake.
This camera features a mechanic 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 Stylus Tough-6000 features a Contrast-Detect AF system. Autofocus can continuously adjust according to subject distance.
The Olympus Stylus Tough-6000 is waterproof to a 3 meter depth. The weatherproof construction of this digital camera protects it against adverse weather, dust and moisture. This particular model is also freezeproof down to -10C. There is no viewfinder on the Olympus Stylus Tough-6000 and no provision to add one.
