Re: TG-6 cosistenly overexposus

True, it overexposes. Consistently. Read about that AFTER I noticed it in mine.

I haven't had it long enough, so I am going to give it some more time, assuming I am just inexperienced. But frankly, if I had known what I know now, I wouldn't have bought it.

Other reasons:

a) b) and c) Lack of a viewfinder. I see NOTHING in bright sunlight OR when overcast, for that matter. Got one of those cone-pyramids, but it defeats the purpose of having a small compact.

d) As a consequence: lousy pictures.

e) I don't dive anymore, so its underwater features are lost on me. Might only want to try it out inside a fishtank...

f) Whenever I want to use some light (FD or LD), I have to have lots of pockets or hold that which I have removed in the other hand.

Not much fun, so far.
