    Olympus TG-5 Waterproof Camera with 3-Inch LCD, Black (V104190BU000)

    • Don't fret about a lack of mega pixels, the images are killer with plenty of good data to work with
    • But the images got worse and worse and the light meter could not read the light on any setting on about 7 of 10 shots so that made it useless.
    • Alas, even though the camera has nice features - like accessory telephoto and fisheye lenses and 'live composition' mode, the test photos i took (using auto mode so it was doing the work) came out with very poor image quality
    • He’s learned to keep it on Program or Auto mode for great images.
    • Camera has F2.0 bright lens and in favorable shooting conditions produces crisp nice images
    • Image quality and low light performance reasonable for a compact, but wish I could find something better that will fit in the pocket of my PFD for use photographing boats on the ocean
    • Takes great images and video, above and below water, but after only about 20 minutes of snorkeling (but several hours of "dry" use), the connector cover over the USB/HDMI ports popped open, destroying the camera.
    • The Good: Great close-up pictures ; Small size; Very good quality images
    • The images are far better than my previous camera and nearly as good as my SLR at the same ISO.
    • With F/2.0, a good image sensor, bright display and waterproof to 50 feet it can take amazing pictures
    • It won't take poster quality portraits that you could crop the heck out of and still get an useable image
    • This is a sturdy camera with a nice sized viewing screen and rapid image acquisition
    • Don't fret about a lack of mega pixels, the images are killer with plenty of good data to work with
    • If you let the camera select the ISO and it creeps up to take a picture in lower light, the image immediately becomes garbage
    • It has good image quality for small sensor camera.
    • I'm not a professional photographer, but I love shooting cool images and being the one to record family events and vacations
    • The images are far better than my previous camera and nearly as good as my SLR at the same ISO.
    • I triple checked that I has put together correctly before leaving the house and after 6 pictures the strap just came undone and the camera almost went off the cliff as it fell
