Olympus - TG-4 16.0-Megapixel Waterproof Digital Camera - Black
- General
- Product Name: TG-4 16.0-Megapixel Waterproof Digital Camera
- Brand: Olympus
- Model Number: V104160BU000
- Color: Black
- Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: BSI CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Digital Zoom: 3x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- Image File Format(s): RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: Not Available (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Maximum Aperture: 2 f/ (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
- Lens
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Other
- Flash
- Integrated Flash: true
- Compatibility
- Memory Card Compatibility: Secure Digital (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
- Features
- Integrated GPS: Yes
- Connectivity
- PictBridge Enabled: false (PictBridge allows digital cameras, camcorders and other image capture devices to connect and print directly to photo printers and other output devices without using a computer.)
- Performance
- Maximum Height of Shock Resistance: 6.9 feet (Maximum height from which the product can be dropped and resist some degree of damage from impact.)
- Minimum Operating Temperature: 14 degrees fahrenheit (The lowest recommended ambient (surrounding) temperature in which the product can ideally operate stated by the manufacturer. Generally long-term exposure of the product to temperatures less than the minimum can result in ineffective operation.)
- Included
- Batteries Included: true (Indicates whether the product comes with the required batteries for its operation.)
- Dimensions
- Product Height: 2.6 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Width: 4.4 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Depth: 1.2 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Weight: 8.7 pounds (The out of box weight of the item.)

Q: what's included in the box?
A: Camera came with a charging cord... it charges like a cell phone. You use the same cord to transfer pics to a computer. Memory card is separate. It also came with a strap and some basic instructions.
Q: How do you change the Battery on the Olyumpus TG-4 or the Olympus 860TG?
A: The TG-4 came with a charging cable - one end is a little larger than USB Mini (plugs into camera and might be proprietary?) and the other end is standard USB. It also included a USB wall adapter. The voltage ratings on the wall adapter are similar to others I have, so it could likely be interchanged with others I have.
Q: How does this camera do in direct sunlight?
A: I think it does fine in direct sunlight. I have attached two photos taken this month in South America showing what the camera can due in direct sunlight. In both cases I am shooting into the sun.
Q: Do you have the option of switching between JPEG and RAW file formats?
A: Yes; under most (non-scene) situations. However, you have to shoot both RAW with JPEG image, there is not just a RAW setting.
A: Yes, it is a great underwater camera. You can actually take the camera inside water for shooting.
Q: how do you transfer photos to a laptop? Do you have to purchase separately the USB cord?
A: No, you do not have to purchase a separate USB cord. You can use the USB cord that comes with the battery charger to connect to your computer and download the photos using Windows Photo Gallery.
Q: what type of memory card do you need? Will anyone card due?
A: Any high speed SD card will do. Make sure it is speed Type 10 or better.
Q: Can you charge the battery using a 240v outlet.
A: Yes, the supplied charger can be used with either 220 or 110V. Just get the right plug adaptor.
