      WEATHERPROOF CONSTRUCTION

      Weather can turn nasty in minutes. A freak downpour quickly soaks everything. Plummeting cold exposes your camera to dangerous temperatures. The Tough TG-6 handles it all. Thanks to a system of seals and double lock construction, water, dust, dirt, snow and cold stay outside where they belong. Embark on your next adventure and be confident your camera is ready for any weather, anytime.

      ANTI-FOG

      It’s happened to practically everyone with a camera. You go from air conditioning to high humidity and suddenly there’s condensation all over the lens. That won’t happen with the Tough TG-6. The lens features hermetically sealed, dual pane protective glass to prevent fogging. Your lens stays clear and ready for action.

      A SYSTEM BUILT AROUND A CAMERA

      The Tough TG-6 sits at the center of an expansive accessory system. The Sports Holder lets you shoot while the camera is secured to you. The Float Strap stops your camera from sinking while shooting on the water. The Silicone Jacket keeps the Tough TG-6 from getting scratched and lets you firmly grip the body. That’s just a few of many accessories designed to help you get the best performance from your camera.

      If you love macro photography, you’ll enjoy this camera. The built-in Microscope Mode features magnified shooting as close as 1cm from the front of your lens. You can get up close in great detail to the worlds beyond.

      FOUR MACRO MODES

      Macro photography is the art of capturing the unseen. The Tough TG-6 features four macro modes to produce artistic, richly detailed images. Two modes let you use the camera like a microscope by focusing as close as 1cm while achieving a maximum display magnification of 44.4x. You’ll capture with striking clarity what the naked eye can’t see — the outline of a snowflake or water droplets balanced on a tiny leaf. Focus Stacking and Bracketing modes shoot images of insects and other tiny objects with dramatic depth of field.

      UNDERWATER WHITE BALANCE

      Underwater White Balance Mode gives you three options to enhance color based on your depth. Shallow improves red tones in depths of approximately 3 meters or less. Mid-range adds vibrant color in depths between 3 and 15 meters. Use Deep for strong blue tones while shooting deeper than 15 meters.

      TAKE DEEPER DIVES

      The Tough TG-6 doesn’t need any housing down to 50 ft (15 m). But if you want to photograph sea life at deeper depths, you’ll need the PT-059 Underwater Case. It can handle water pressure down to 147 ft (45 m). Even with the case, you can use the camera control dial for exposure compensation. Return to the surface with incredible deep water images.

      TOUGH ACCESSORIES GO UNDERWATER

      Take underwater photography to new heights with two optional lenses. The FCON-T02 Fisheye Converter lets you capture sharp, circular shaped images. It also captures more traditional diagonal shaped fisheye images. The FCON-T01 allows you to capture wide-open scenery while maintaining the brightness of the lens - perfect for capturing wide-angle shots. The TCON-TO1 tele converter lens extends the Tough TG-6’s focal length to 1.7x to shoot crisp photos of whales, dolphins or large schools of fish from a distance. All 3 lenses require the CLA-T01 adapter for attachment to the TG-6. They are a small part of a comprehensive system of accessories that raise your level of underwater photography.

    Excellent results

    Love it. Great sharp pics on land inside and outdoors. The presets are great also. I did not test it underwater yet.

    Best underwater camera for the money.

    I love this camera! I use it mainly for underwater photography. It is compact and simple no messing with an underwater case for every dive. I did recently purchase the underwater case so that I can take it below 50 ft and start using lights. But, if you want a compact no fuss camera this one takes unbelievable photos as is, especially macro. All my friends ask me what I use. We have a TG-5 and a TG_6. I use it for beach photography too because I don't have to worry about it getting splashed.
