Olympus Mju Tough 6010

The 6010 does exactly what it says on the tin and takes photos in extreme circumstances. It's unfortunate that they're not the best photos they could be.

Reviews

  • Olympus Mju 7020

    We're a bit ambivalent about the Olympus Mju 7020. It's got a wide-angle lens and a relatively long zoom at 7x, but misses out on good picture quality and class-leading features like HD movie recording.

  • JVC Everio GZ-HD5

    The HD5 features a 60GB hard disk, high-def 1920x1080 recording and a 10x optical zoom lens. Unfortunately, it records in JVC's MPEG2-TS format, rather than the more popular AVCHD format.

  • JVC Everio GZ-HM200B

    There's no built-in memory or hard disk capacity with the HM200, just two SD/SDHC card slots. You do get a 20x optical zoom lens and AVCHD recording, though.

  • JVC Everio GZ-HD300

    Available in either red or silver, the HD300 features a 60GB hard disk, 20x optical zoom lens and the ability to record in the widely supported AVCHD format.

  • JVC Everio GZ-HD320

    Recording in the widely supported AVCHD format, the high definition HD320 sports a 120GB hard disk, face detection, 24Mbps recording and a 20x optical zoom lens.

  • JVC Everio GZ-MG630

    Recording on to a 60GB hard disk, the standard-def MG630 features a 35x optical zoom lens.

  • JVC Everio GZ-MG680

    A standard-def hard disk-based camcorder, the MG680 features 120GB of storage and a 35x optical zoom lens.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX65

    It's a good camera that can take some beautiful pictures, but for the price and the lack of extra features, the FX65 doesn't live up to our expectations of value — and its video quality is terrible.
