Olympus wants you to take their new digital camera swimming

0 comments
Take this new Olympus digital camera diving in the Caribbean if you wish, Olympus has designed it to function submerged in up to 10 feet (3 meters) of water.
A camera for your next vacation, that’s exactly what Olympus proposes their newest compact Tough digital camera to be. The new Olympus Tough TG-320 is water-shock-freeze-dust-proof to certain limits (up to 10 ft. water, 5ft. shock, 14 Degrees Fahrenheit / -10 Degrees Celsius freeze), but generally you can take the camera out in most any situation and be able to use it’s 14MP CCD sensor to capture high-resolution images or 720p HD video.

Size wise the Olympus is a pocketable camera. Just like other recent Olympus Tough cameras the new TG-320 has been designed to be a joy to take anywhere instead of some big bulky burden. Olympus quotes the TG-320 as weighting 5.47 oz. with the following dimensions in inches 3.79 x 2.50 x 0.89 –It’s not a bulky camera.
The size of the TG-320 makes the camera more portable, but the cameras rechargeable battery, ability to output over a built-in HDMI port, and the cameras compatibility with SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards are convenience enhancing features. When you go on your trip bringing adapters for HDMI output, or buying large packages of AA batteries or being limited to only one type of memory card aren’t issues you have to deal with if you pick-up the TG-320.

Olympus plans to start shipping the new TG-320 Tough digital camera in February of 2012 with an MSRP of $179.99. The reasonably priced rugged digital camera will be available in Blue and Red color options.
