Description — Olympus Stylus Tough 8010
The Olympus Stylus Tough 8010 is a weather-sealed compact point-and-shoot built for photographers who don't want to leave their camera behind when conditions get tough. The body is constructed from stainless steel and polycarbonate, measures 98.3 x 63.6 x 23.9 mm, and weighs just 215g — making it genuinely pocketable for travel and outdoor use. At its core sits a 14MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor paired with the TruePic III image processor, capturing stills at up to 4288x3216 pixels.
The ISO range runs from 64 to 1600, and burst shooting reaches 5 fps. The 2.7-inch HyperCrystal III LCD with 230,000 dots serves as the primary composition and review tool. Autofocus combines contrast detection, face detection for up to 12 faces, and AI-based subject tracking.
Both in-body and digital image stabilization are on board. Video records at up to 1280 x 720 @ 30fps in 8-bit color. Storage spans SD, SDHC, and internal memory, and the built-in flash covers up to 4.0 meters with five available modes.
