Product Description
Waterproof to up to 5m*** shockproof to falls of up to 1.5m** and freezeproof down to as low as -10°C the 14 Megapixel µ TOUGH-6020 has a range of new functions to help you capture the excitement. A versatile 5x wide optical zoom (28-140mm*) ensures great group photos or close-ups of distant subjects. In addition every move can be recorded with the HD movie function or integrated into a slideshow and then viewed comfortably on a TV set connected via HDMI. And by using Photo Surfing to select and look at pictures of anything from an afternoon on the sailboat to a child's birthday there's no longer any need to tediously click through the whole library. This is possible thanks to Olympus' [ib] technology. The new image browsing software allows pictures to be tagged by face with Face Recognition technology by place (with GPS) or by event. The tagged images can then be surfed through on the camera's LCD on a computer or a television.----What's more the µ TOUGH-6020 offers plenty of space for all those special moments: aside from an impressive 2GB of internal memory respectively an SD card slot is sure to be useful. The In-Camera Manual on the other hand makes navigating the cameras and finding out how to operate certain functions a breeze. Tap Control has also been improved and now allows scrolling by tilting the camera body in addition to control through taps on the casing perfect for gloved hands. Underwater fans will appreciate knowing where they are going with LED illumination. Of course a variety of trusted Olympus features from Magic Filters and Beauty Mode to i-Auto AF Tracking and Dual Image Stabilisation are also on board to make sure you don't miss that perfect shot.------Features:----- Shooting in tough situations - waterproof to 5m** shockproof to 1.5m**....

Bought this camera after reading the reviews and I was looking for a camera that could deal with neglect. Lived up to the job with flying colours - took it down the Zambezi white-water rafting for five days and it emerged unscathed. This was kept in my pocket through grade 5 rapids and several capsizes and has been dropped, thrown and scraped and still survived to take super pictures. Long battery life and excellent seal which was also tested as it was dropped in the sand as we camped by the side of the river. It's next stage in life it to be given to my daughter when she goes back to university (her first camera survived three weeks)and might be the tougher test of its short life. Have yet to use many of the camera's features but did find it difficult to manually keep the aperture open wide for a set amount of time (trying to take pictures of a lunar rainbow over Victoria falls)but that is not what I bought the camera for.

I bought this camera after I ruined my Olympus Tough 1030 by not abiding by the manufacturers recommendations and rinsing off in fresh water after being in the salt water.
Salt crytals grow and lift the seals letting in more water the next time you dive. The 6020 is a better spec (apart from the Depth, 5M for the 6020 and 10M for the 1030), and as my old camera gave me lots of good service and excellent pictures, (when looked after!), I chose another camera of the same type. I will use in the sea for canoeing and such but get a Waterproof case for taking it deeper.

Bought this camera to take on a Motorbike adventure holiday as I wanted something that I could slip into my jacket pocket but that would also stand a bit of rough treatment as we were touring south america and knew we would be spending some time on unpaved dirt roads.
The shots taken were brilliant with great colours, there are a vast variety of different menus to master but I found the sports mode for scenery to be best for what I wanted as I was taking pictures from the pillion seat whilst we were riding. The camera coped brilliantly with that although on some occassions it did not take a picture of what I was looking at through the lcd screen - still can't figure that one out! Despite being subject to excessive dust there were no problems, my only gripe would be the slow start up time, I timed 5 seconds delay from turning the camera on to being able to take a shot which is not good when you only have a couple of seconds to capture something, I also found that if I left the camera turned on to try avoiding this it went into standby mode and did not operate until you pressed the shutter release button which again took a few seconds. My previous camera I used for this type of trip was a Fuji which fired up instantly as soon as the lens cover was pulled back.
Plus points would be wide lens, variety of menus, good colour reproduction, being able to tap the camera for different functions when wearing gloves, HD video capability, internal memory as well as SD card, USB charging capability as well as an AC adapter and tough design.
Minus points for me where slow start up as mentioned and fiddly on/off switch.
