Olympus Tough 3000 – An Exellent All Action Camera
The Olympus Mju Tough 3000 (also known as the Stylus Tough 3000) is the newest member of Olympus’ extensive range of shockproof and waterproof digital camera range. The Mju 3000 features high-definition video recording for the first time on a Tough camera, offers a number of Magic Filter effects for easy in-camera processing, and features SD / SDHC card support rather than Olympus’ proprietary xD format. Waterproof to a depth of 3m, shockproof against falls to 1.5m, and freezeproof down to -10°C, the metal-bodied Mju Tough 3000 should survive pretty much anything that you subject it to. Other standout features include a 12 megapixel sensor, 3.6x wide optical zoom with sensor-shift image stabilisation, 1GB of internal storage, In-Camera Manual and an HDMI port.
From the outside the Olympus Tough 3000 looks a lot like its recent stablemates, the 6010 and 8000 models. It’s about the size of a pack of cigarettes, but weighs substantially more due to being made of (mostly) metal, weighing in at 160g. Most of the front plate is covered in a glossy plastic and features a tiny hole for the microphone, an activity LED, built-in flash and the 3.6x, 28-112mm lens, which is always hidden behind a clear plastic cover regardless of whether the camera is in use or not. This can quickly get covered in dirt and fingerprints, so make sure to keep it clean. The lens is also positioned right in the corner of the camera body, making it easy for a finger to get into shot.
The Olympus Mju Tough 3000 brings Olympus’ all-action camera range to a wider audience thanks to it’s budget price-tag, but at the expense of an ill-thought-out control system and below par image quality.
Although it isn’t quite as tough as previous models, the Olympus Stylus Tough 3000 should still be able to survive the majority of knocks, scrapes and hostile environments, only really lacking in the crush-proof department. From beaches to swimming pools, rainforests to deserts, coral reefs to mountain tops, this digital camera can handle them all, which can’t be said about most compacts, and is pretty impressive given the reduced cost of entry.
On the plus side, this is the only Tough model to offer high-definition movies, so if moving images are very important to you, look no further, although the inability to zoom while recording is frustrating. The much-advertised Magic Filters are quite a little gimmicky, with the move to SD memory cards rather than the proprietary xD-Picture format that Olympus have persisted with for many years being of much greater benefit.
