OM System TG-7 TOUGH Action Camera - Red
Waterproof up to 15m, freezeproof down to -10°C, and extraordinary shockproof capabilities. Unmatched Tough performance for photography anytime, anywhere.
The OM SYSTEM Tough TG-7 features meticulously sealed construction throughout the entire camera body, complemented by a dual-lock mechanism on crucial openings, like the battery cover. This exceptional engineering guarantees waterproof performance for underwater shooting to depths of 15m and powerful dustproof performance safeguarding the camera from sand and dust particles. With powerful freezeproof performance down to -10°C and dual-pane protective glass on the front lens for anti-fogging, photographers can confidently venture into extreme temperature variations, such as skiing in outdoor winter conditions. This Tough camera is also equipped with shockproof construction, capable of withstanding falls from heights of up to 2.1m, and crushproof resilience up to 100 kgf, making it the ultimate companion for challenging shooting environments like mountains. Its compact and lightweight build, combined with unbeatable Tough performance, fulfils the demands for adventure photography. The non-slip grip ensures a secure hold, even in wet conditions.
Equipped with a brilliant, F2.05 high-speed zoom lens and RAW recording for versatile creative possibilities.
This model boasts a 4x optical zoom lens with a bright, high-speed, maximum F2.02 aperture at the wide-angle end. The bright F2.0 aperture allows for the usage of fast shutter speeds, reducing subject blur even when capturing fast-moving subjects. To achieve such extraordinary lens performance, advanced optical technologies were incorporated, including a DSA (Dual Super Aspherical) Lens. The image sensor is equipped with a high-speed back-lit CMOS image sensor with exceptional sensitivity performance, complemented by AR (anti-reflective) coating on both sides of the sealing glass, to suppress ghosting and flaring. Additionally, it uses the TruePic VIII image processing engine found in our interchangeable lens cameras, resulting in exceptional image quality. The camera fully supports RAW recording with in-camera RAW processing and RAW image editing and processing on a computer using our free OM Workspace software, granting photographers limitless possibilities in their creative vision.
Variable Macro System that transcends human visual limits with close-up capabilities as close as 1 cm from the edge of the lens.
This model excels in close-up photography, offering an impressive shooting range as close as 1cm from the lens’s edge and a maximum image magnification of 7x (35mm equivalent). Alongside the Microscope Mode, Microscope Control Mode, Focus Stacking Mode, and Focus Bracketing Mode, the Variable Macro System expands the boundaries of macro shooting by providing two optional accessories that unlock even more possibilities. With these capabilities, photographers can capture vivid images of minute subjects that go beyond the limitations of the human eye.
Microscope Mode
Enabling subjects to be photographed as close as 1 cm from the lens’s edge away from the end of the lens and achieving a maximum image magnification of 7x (35mm equivalent) when setting the optical zoom to the telephoto end, this camera offers a magnified shooting experience reminiscent of using a microscope.
Microscope Control Mode
Focus Stacking Mode
Focus Bracketing Mode
Supports diverse underwater shooting styles with five shooting modes and waterproof performance down to 45m when paired with the PT-059 Underwater Housing.
