Olympus Stylus Tough TG-860 with Olympus TG-830 iHS Overview


Let's compare TG-830 iHS with Stylus Tough TG-860. Both cameras produced Olympus. These models are included in the Waterproof cameras. Olympus TG-830 iHS was released in 2013, and Olympus TG-860 in 2015. Stylus Tough TG-860 is newer, which is a plus. TG-830 iHS 2 years older.
These two cameras have the same sensor resolution - 16 MP. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the second camera (Stylus Tough TG-860), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. Both cameras have Sensor-shift image stabilization. Both cameras feature a 3-inch fixed screen.
Olympus TG-830 iHS has 7.0 fps continuous shooting.
