I bought this camera specifically for our trip to the Galapagos Islands. We snorkeled every day for 10 days. The camera was under water for close to 10 hours total. Never a leak; never a problem! I now have some nice photos of sea turtles, sea lions, and numerous fish species. The camera does have some limitations. After taking a flash photo it does take 5 or 6 seconds to be ready for the next. The controls are a little difficult to use underwater. The zoom is only 3.6X. I am not a professional photographer, and the various reports on this camera state that the optics are NOT top notch. OK. But the image quality is fine for tourist photos. Considering the other reviews that state that the camera leaks one might conclude that Olympus has some quality control issues. But my Olympus Tough has lived up to its name.
Customer Review: worked great for a week
I bought this camera right before our trip to Belize. It worked flawlessly for the first 10 days of our 12 day trip. We got lots of great pictures including many underwater pictures. All in all, I got over 550 pictures. Then a problem arose. When I turned on the camera, a message kept saying "check battery door". I kept playing with it and could not get the message to disappear. We never took it below 6-7ft, but we did get a drop or 2 of water in it. Waited a couple days to let it dry out and still got the same message. Oddly enough, another person on our trip had the model before this one (no dial) and he had the same problem. I took it back and got a refund. Bummer. I really got use to using it and got some good pictures. Hopefully, Olympus can fix this. But for now, I'll take a look at the new Canon D10.
