Review on 📷 Olympus TG-320 14MP Tough Series Camera: Red, 3.6x Optical Zoom (Old Model) - Perfect for Adventure Photography by (seo joon) ᠌

If the device had not failed, I would have given a rating of 4. The Olympus service center issued a conclusion that the device was tested, no leaks were found, which means that the operating conditions were violated and refused warranty repairs. For paid repairs, they asked for 90% of the cost of a new camera. I won't buy Olympus again. Has pros: Not bad, taking into account the type of device and its cost, photo quality and acceptable video quality. Looks more expensive than it is. It is compact, there is an optical stabilizer. Convenient range of focal lengths. Cons below: 1. Weak protection against leakage - a thin rubber band under a plastic cover. The camera leaked on the 5th month of operation, during the second vacation, before which it had withstood about ten snorkels and swims. For all the time, the camera did not dive to a depth of more than one meter, I carefully monitored the cleanliness of the seal before closing the lid - there is experience in using protected equipment when shooting in water. I handled the device carefully, in accordance with the instructions, every time after shooting in salt water, I washed it in fresh water and dried it. 2. Low battery capacity. In practice, a full charge is not enough for relatively intensive shooting during the day (100 . 150 frames). The use of flash, and in particular even short-term video recording, fatally reduces this unremarkable resource. Charging requires a non-standard cable and a branded charger with a USB interface. An attempt to use a more powerful charger with a USB interface from another device led to the fact that charging ended at about 30% capacity. 3. The use of a 14MP matrix in such a device is a whim of marketers. Having taken test shots in different lighting conditions, I decided that the most adequate in the vast majority of cases is to use the 5MP mode.
