Camera Overview — Olympus TG-630 iHS

The Olympus Tough TG-630 iHS is a rugged point-and-shoot compact camera built around a 12MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor and powered by the TruePic VI image processor. Designed for active use, it carries a water-resistant body construction made from polycarbonate plastic with metal reinforcement, keeping it ready for demanding outdoor conditions. The camera weighs just 167g and measures a pocketable 98.2 x 65.8 x 22.8 mm, making it genuinely portable without sacrificing durability.

Image stabilization is handled by a Sensor-Shift (IBIS) system to help keep shots sharp in motion. For focusing, the TG-630 uses a Contrast Detection autofocus system with Face Detection AF and subject tracking, helping keep moving subjects sharp. The 3.0-inch Fixed LCD display resolves at 460,000 dots, providing a clear view for framing shots.

The ISO range spans 100 to 6400, giving flexibility in varied lighting. Burst shooting is supported at up to 5fps, and six color profiles — Standard, Vivid, Natural, Muted, Portrait, and Monochrome — allow creative control straight from the camera. Video can be captured in Standard color at up to 30fps, or at 120fps for slow-motion content, with 8-bit bit depth.

Storage uses SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards, and the camera connects via USB and Micro HDMI for output. A built-in flash covers Auto, On, Off, and Red-Eye Reduction modes. Battery life is rated at approximately 300 shots per charge using the LI-50B battery.

Key Features — Olympus TG-630 iHS
