Before I purchased my camera, only the red model was available in Best Buy. I looked at it in the store and it seemed a lot lighter and not as solid as the black model that I eventually purchased. I was also concerned about the amount of reflection that would come off of the red model. My TG-2 was black and I'm glad that I got the TG-5 in black as well.

Well, that's interesting Allen. I certainly can't debate that reasoning as I've not seen or handled the black mode. In regards to the red model I purchased, I was able to receive along with it, a 16BG card, the flotation strap, plus the use of a $25 certificate. I would have preferred the black model for myself, but, my wife is quite happy with Mr. Red.
