OM System Tough TG-7 Red 2017
Its IP68-rated body submerges to 15m without a housing and survives 2.1m drops, while the 12MP BSI sensor pairs with 2.5-stop IBIS for stable 4K30 video in harsh conditions. A built-in field sensor system logs GPS, temperature, and pressure data, and variable macro modes focus as close as 1cm for detailed close-ups. It best suits snorkelers, construction surveyors, and backcountry hikers needing a glove-friendly, crushproof camera that adds geolocation to reliable waterproof imaging.
