It's a black plastic ring that rotates around the shutter button.  For some reason it just came off...it almost looks  like it will snap back or rotate back in, but I want to be careful.  Anybody have tips on reattaching this?

Hi All I have a beautiful TG6 which I use for short vids of Macro life in Phuket. I took some short MOV files of a few Nudibranch yesterday on Racha and showed the other divers the full vids. When I got back home the MOV files  and viewed them on my MAC they were only 4-10mb and stopped showing the film but still carried on playing a paused video for the full length. Any Idea what happened? or even better how to repair it? I will be formatting my card every time i dive from now on.

I bought Olympus tg 4 in 2016 when I visited red sea.  it worked great. I am wondering if I should upgrade it to tg 6. Anybody has experience with both cameras? I had 3 underwater housings and they all leaked.  i am not considering underwater housing fright now.

Hi everyone,I spent the last few days trying to get familiar with UW photography gear and would love some advice on where I am at. For context I'm a (demanding) amateur photographer shooting mostly landscape and occasionally wildlife using a full-frame DSLR.I want to get into UW photography but understand this is a money pit. Moreover, I don't have a lot of diving experience yet (AOW certification with a total of 27 dives) and will probably do only ~10 dives a year, maybe 20, in the...

I have a box fresh TG-6 that I bought a couple of years ago to take on holiday.Unfortunately COVID-19 meant the holiday was delay until now, so I dusted off the TG-6 and decided to see if any firmware updates exist.However it would appear that Olympus insist on installing their software on a Windows 10 or Mac computer rather than the usual copy a file to SD card. This presents me with a problem as I don't have a compatible computer.So as a first question I'd like to know if there have been...

Hi I have the Olympus tough TG6 camera which I using a lot in canyoning trip (a lot of water). The common problem is the water on the lens which Interferes for taking a good pictures and because all the equipment is wet, it is difficult to take off the water. I'm looking for a solution of getting rid from the water on the lens and will be happy if anyone here have any good solution. More over, I found those two accessories which I thought can help in protect the lens and may be will block...

What's the largest SD the TG-6 will accept? I have a 128 Gb SD in there now, but maybe a 256 Gb SD works? I'm shooting JPEG+RAW, which means 12 <= 15 Mb per shot. It still takes some doing to fill 128 Gb, but, hey, bigger's better. Isn't it? ;) --Some days I amaze even me.Some days I can't find my phone even when I'm using it

I'm new to the UW scene so I'd love some advice. From what I've gathered, min SS is only controllable with Auto ISO and flash turned on. With the Fcon t01 lens attached to my tg-6, flash is turned off. My auto ISO is maxed at 400 and , so far, the SS has been set to slower than 1/100, which seems too slow. Does anyone have advice on this? Or would like to share their settings?

I just got the TG-6 but am having a problem when downloading photos to my PC. When I connect with the USB cable, the photos are not listed or categorized by date. All of my photos are lumped together.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
