I think that Olympus must be using the great cell phone camera technology to improve their product.

so I bought a genuine Olympus one.

The Olympus Tough TG-5 showed great promise, but the Olympus claims of durability and water resistance are not even close to the tests of real-world usage

Clearly a strong selling point is the camera's use under water and Olympus have done their best to make sure water doesn't get in

I would not recommend this Olympus Tough TG-5 to anyone who wants to use it in an "active" setting

Before I start, I need to say that my previous camera was also an Olympus Tough series and that it WAS a great camera that I took everywhere even scuba diving with a waterproof case

I have been using the Olympus Tough cameras for business.

Using this camera as a point and shoot on fishing trips -- This is the 3rd Olympus Tough -- or TG camera
