Olympus Stylus Tough-6000 (aka Mju Tough 6000) Review by Pocket-lint 8/10

Currently selling at around $239, the Olympus Stylus Tough-6000 (aka Mju Tough 6000) comes with 10 megapixels sensor and a 3.6x optical zoom lens and is designed to handle most weather conditions. It is also suitable for use around the swimming pool or on winter holidays. It is certainly more robust than a more standard digital camera. The Stylus Tough 6000 is waterproof to 3m, shockproof to 1.5m and freezeproof to -10 degrees. Add in its compact size that makes it able to fit into most pockets and you have a very versatile digital camera that can be used by more or less the entire family. Here is a quick summary of the review from Pocket-lint, giving the camera a rating of 8 out of 10:

"With a price to match your average 10-megapixel compact camera, the Olympus Mju Tough-6000 offers a good rugged approach without trying to sting you for it. That rugged approach lives up to its name, giving you a camera that you can happily give to the kids or take to the beach without the fear of breaking it.

However those looking for a rugged camera to match their even ruggedier lifestyle might to better in opting for the Olympus Mju Tough-8000, the 6000's older brother. It sports a 12 megapixel sensor and the ability to go down 10m in the water, making it a better fit if you want to go beneath the surface. If rugged is your thing, you don't want to print your pictures too large and you can put up with some fiddly controls, this might just be the camera for you."
