Today Olympus announced the previously leaked TG-1 iHS Tough camera. This is probably the best rugged camera on the market today.
Main Features:
- The TG-1 is equipped with a bright, high-speed f2.0 lens. Combined with iHS technology, this lens vastly improves shooting and image quality in low-light scenes.
- Equipped with the strongest capabilities ever included on a Tough model: Waterproof functionality down to 12 m, shockproof functionality to 2m, cold resistant to -10℃, crushproof to 100 kgf
- Equipped with iHS, which enables high-speed functionality from start-up to focusing
- Equipped with A-GPS, enabling high-speed confirmation of your current location. Users can also append location information to images
- Two types of completely waterproof conversion lenses (sold separately) can be attached to the TG-1: Fish-eye and tele-converter
Amazon is already taking pre-orders for the TG-1 iHS for $399.
