Olympus Stylus Tough 6010 (mju Tough 6010)

Opinion: I purchased this camera for its robust and dustproof construction, and in this respect, it is excellent. What I did not expect however, was the very poor image quality. I suspect that the jpg processing is largely to blame. This is the last time I purchase a camera that doesn't store raw images.

Apart from the poor image quality, this camera is also extremely slow.

Opinion: I own multiple cameras ( E3, E510, EP1, FZ50, R1, G10 + 5 other compacts). I got the 6010 for the sole purpose of letting my kids trash it out in the swimming pool and at the beach. For that purpose, it is absolutely great. It is a fun camera. I love its filter functions (especially the sketch filter) and it feels solid but yet is very compact. Picture quality is quite impressive for its price range. However if you are looking for better picture quality, there are better cameras out there but without the waterproof/ crushproof capabilities.

Just always remember to keep the battery door closed properly and test it first by putting it into a sink of water for a few minutes then check battery compartment for moisture.

Opinion: WARNING - READ THE COMMENTS ON THE 1030 BEFORE YOU CONSIDER A NEW
"TOUGH" CAMERA.
