The blue TG-630 iHS Digital Camera from Olympus
is a "tough" point-and-shoot digital camera with a 12MP sensor, 5x
optical zoom lens, a host of assistive features and waterproof,
shockproof and freeze-proof capabilities. The 12MP Back Side Illuminated
CMOS sensor combined with the powerful TruePic VI Image Processor
provide detailed, colorful images and fast performance speeds. Full HD
1080p video capture with a dedicated one-touch button and HDMI output is
supported by the TG-630 iHS and high-speed 720p HD recording is
possible at 120 frames per second with slow-motion playback.
The
Olympus TG-630 iHS is built tough to withstand the elements and the
knocks that might otherwise damage a compact camera. It can shoot
underwater to a depth of 16' (5 m) and with two protective frames it is
shockproof to a drop of 5' (1.5 m). It's able to shoot and maintain all
functions in temperatures as low as 14°F (-10°C) and a protective seal
keeps it sand- and dust-proof. Both the lens and the LCD screen have a
water-repellent coating so rain and condensation won't fog up your view.
The
lens on the TG-630 iHS is a 5x optical zoom that provides the focal
length equivalency of 28-140mm in the 35mm format. At 28mm, you have a
wide-angle lens that can shoot expansive vistas and inclusive group
shots and 140mm is a telephoto length that can magnify distant subjects
or shoot creative close-ups. A Super Resolution Zoom function is also
available to double that reach if necessary. Dual Image Stabilization
offers clearer images by reducing the blurring effects of camera shake
when shooting at telephoto lengths and in low light situations. And fast
burst shooting is supported at 5fps (frames per second) in full
resolution and up to 60fps in lower resolutions.
A 3.0" LCD screen
with a water-repellent coating provides composition and playback
viewing and numerous assistive features make it easy to get the best
shot possible. Intelligent Auto makes all camera adjustments to capture
your images with the optimal settings and Scene Modes allow you to match
the camera's settings to the scene you are shooting, whether it be
Sports, Sunset, Night Portrait. One-touch Panorama is supported and Face
Detection recognizes when you are shooting people and optimizes
exposure on their faces for sharp, well-lit portraits. Creative Art
Filters, such as Watercolor, Fisheye and Miniature are available to add
special effects to your images and Beauty Mode lets you smooth out
wrinkles, whiten teeth and add make-up touches.
