AT A GLANCE
Built to withstand the rugged conditions of outdoor life, the black OM System Tough TG-7 Digital Camera provides you with a high-quality point-and-shoot you can rely on. Its 12MP BSI CMOS sensor and TruePic VIII image processor deliver excellent photo and video performance even in low-light conditions with a wide maximum aperture of f/2 and ISO up to 12,800. While maintaining much of the previous model's framework, the TG-7 introduces several new features such as vertical video support, interval shooting, exposure smoothing, and USB-C connectivity. With these added benefits, you're well-prepared to capture scenes and upload them directly to your devices with ease by navigating the camera's 3" 1.04m-dot LCD Monitor. Additionally, the TG-7 is compatible with 17 unique accessories that can be purchased to further expand the camera's capabilities including fisheye/tele-converters, underwater housings, lens protection filters, and much more.
Ultra Resilient
The TG-7 is built to perform no matter the conditions you’re faced with:
- IPX8-rated waterproof for underwater use to depths of 50’
- Freezeproof to temperatures as low as 14°F
- Shockproof to drops from as high as 7'
- Crushproof to withstand pressure up to 220 lbf
- Dustproof to protect the internal components of the camera
- Anti-fog design prevents condensation from forming inside the lenses
Improved Video Functions
The TG-7 improves upon an already impressive array of video functionality with the addition of some new features. Vertical video support allows you to seamlessly record video in vertical aspect ratios, perfect for vlogging and sharing on social media. Interval shooting enables you to take multiple photos spaced out over a set period of time to better capture action or time-lapses. Pro Capture mode helps you freeze the perfect moment in an action sequence by buffering images when the shutter button is at half-press. The TG-7 saves up to 70 images of the most recently buffered images both before and after the shutter button is released.
Expansive Macro System
Extend past the TG-7's 4x optical zoom with four macro shooting modes for capturing scenes up close. Select Microscope mode to capture images with an incredibly short minimum focusing distance of 0.39". To zoom up to 44x closer, switch to Microscope Control mode. Utilize Focus Stacking mode to merge multiple images and create one photo with great depth of field. Focus Bracketing allows you to capture up to 30 images at various focus points which can then be composited in post-production. Having these macro capabilities at your disposal makes it easy to capture the finest details of your subject and visualize creative perspectives that are unfamiliar to the naked eye.
Advanced Underwater Shooting
Photograph and record video at depths as deep as 50 feet with generous features that simplify underwater shooting. Underwater White Balance mode provides a solution to regaining accurate color tones that you can lose as you dive deeper underwater.
12MP BSI CMOS Sensor & TruePic VIII Processor
Utilizing a 12MP BSI CMOS sensor and TruePic VIII image processor, the TG-7 delivers brilliant stills and videos with rich colors. Both sides of the image sensor's sealing glass have an antireflective coating that reduces flaring, which commonly occurs when shooting in conditions that have snow, dust, or sand. The sensor's BSI design coupled with a f/2 maximum aperture ensure cleaner image quality at higher ISO values. For maximum detail and control for photo editing, shoot in RAW format. The processor enables recording UHD 4K30p video and high-speed Full HD 1080p video at up to 120 fps.
Keep Track While Adventuring
The TG-7's Field Sensor System includes GPS, a manometer, a compass, and a thermometer allowing you to record important data about your environment and include it in your photos and videos. Easily transfer your recorded data and imagery to a mobile device using built-in Wi-Fi. In addition to wireless transfer, the built-in Wi-Fi also allows you to remotely control the camera.
