OM System Tough TG-7
OM System is the new name for the long-established Olympus brand, and the Tough TG-7 continues that legacy with a rugged, user-friendly underwater camera. Designed to reach depths of 50 feet without additional housing, the TG-7 offers three preset shooting modes tailored to different depths and lighting conditions, helping beginners capture clearer photos and video as color and light shift under the surface. With the optional PT-059 underwater case, the camera’s rated depth increases to 147 feet, and users can add optional conversion lenses—such as the FCON-T02 for wide circular images and the FCON-T01 tele converter for extended reach—making the TG-7 a versatile option for casual divers and snorkeling enthusiasts. $500.
