Product Description
There is really only one word to describe the shockproof, waterproof, freezeproof, crushproof and shakeproof Stylus 8000 camera from Olympus: Tough. Built to withstand some of the harshest environments on earth, the Stylus Tough series builds on the impressive specifications of the renowned Stylus SW Series by adding Dual Image Stabilization. Now, when the Stylus Tough-8000 arrives at the windy mountain peak or dive into choppy waves, it stays steady and ready to capture blur-free images in virtually any condition.
The Stylus Tough-8000, designed for active and adventurous people, features an impressive 12 million pixels of image resolution for poster-sized prints and can survive a 6.6-foot drop, venture 33 feet underwater, withstand 220 pounds of crushing pressure, and laugh at freezing temperatures. Tap Control makes it easy for skiers, divers and snowmen makers to control key settings without removing their gloves.
FEATURES:
- Winning the Battle of the Blur with Dual Image Stabilization - For the first time, Dual Image Stabilization will be offered on Olympus cameras in the tough category. In the cold climates where the Olympus Stylus Tough-8000 thrives, you may shiver, but the camera performs sure and steady even in shaking hands. Dual Image Stabilization combines two technologies--mechanical Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization and Digital Image Stabilization--to provide one powerful anti-blur solution for capturing great images whether the photographer or the subject is moving. Olympus’ mechanical Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization keeps images sharp by adjusting the internal image sensor to compensate for camera movement, even in low-light conditions when shutter speeds are slower. Additionally, Digital Image Stabilization freezes the action with high ISO sensitivity and fast shutter speeds that preve

 Happily Surprised by the Quality August 24, 2010

We bought this for our honeymoon as an alternative to my husband's Nikon D300, as we were cruising and doing shore excursions that included rafting and beach stops. It is certainly waterproof and drop-resistant, taking nice shots of the reef and fish while snorkeling, and bouncing right back when I didn't have the strap on and it slipped once... maybe twice. On the ship and in the ports where we took both cameras, the point-and-shoot competed very well with the serious camera, delivering sharp shots faster when left on auto mode, and reliable effects when a mode was chosen. The videos we took in air (literally, while para-sailing) were decent for souvenirs, and the underwater videos are great novelties, though not nearly as good as the photos. The microphone was surprisingly sensitive. We took care to rinse after each water use. Battery life is quite good even through many flash shots on one charge. We have since kept it on-hand for every trip short or long - its speed lets us catch great shots on a whim. We would absolutely buy it again.
wet or dry It's very good July 31, 2010

I have 2 of these olympus cameras. I'm not a professional photographer or anything, I just need a bulletproof camera I can use on vacation and while snorkeling. These work great.
Great camera July 27, 2010

Takes great photos. Took with me on a cruise. With the photo card installed i was able to take nearly 700 pictures. Everyone who viewed my pictures thought they were great. You need to make sure you have the back up battery if you are going to take any video. Because of its durability I have taken it everywhere - kayaking, ziplining, hiking in the rain which allows the ability to catch great memories.
