Overall satisfied with the camera function and quality but disappointed with the video function. An unacceptable noise is heard when zooming in the video mode. Extremely frustrating and in my opinion not acceptable on a camera at this pricepoint. I've never encountered this on other cameras.

This is my third Olympus "Tough" series camera, having purchased one of the originals almost 10 years ago. The first one lasted 5+ years of hard use before failing. The second one is still working, but this year's model is so much faster when turning it on and waking it up. With each model year, there are more and more adjustments one can make, which is always welcome.

I never had an underwater camera, but I went snorkeling for the first time this year and I got some wonderful pictures of 'life below' the water, and wonderful video as well. Camera was really great, easy to use and I can't wait to use it again!

Underwater photos are great. Easy to carry when snorkeling and doing other outdoor activities. The special settings for portraits, cuisine, action and special lighting situations take a variety of great pictures out of the water. Optional zoom lens gives you 8X zoom. It would be fabulous if you could get to 16X.

It takes great pictures BUT, it will not date stamp the pictures in the JPG file. For me, that is a big deal. I also have the TG-4 which does date stamp. For my line of work, that is a big negative for this Olympus TG-5 camera.

Bought this based on underwater pics I saw from others taken when snorkeling. Have not used it yet. Disappointed in what appears to be maximum depth for the camera. Much less than other under water cameras I have had.
