Sony RX100 VII Review:

Sony RX100 VII is the 7th generation of Sony's compact camera and it's at the top of our list with good reason. So, let's start with the important details.

The dimension of this Sony RX100 VII is 4 x 1.68 x 2.38 inches and it weighs only. 

This remarkable pocket camera comes with a 20.1MP 1.0-inch type CMOS sensor.

OLYMPUS Tough TG-6

OLYMPUS Tough TG-6 Review:

OLYMPUS Tough TG-6 model is the successor to the previous successful TG-5. 

TG-6 model is improved with a better 3-inch LCD screen (1.04 million dots vs 460k dots) and with the ability to focus objects at a distance of 1cm. Both sides of the sealing glass over the image sensor now have Anti-reflective (AR) coating, so flaring and ghosts are drastically minimized.

The main advantages of this model are that it is waterproof (50 feet), shockproof (7 feet),  freezeproof (14 F), anti-fog, and crush-proof (100 kgf). In our opinion, this compact camera is the winner in this category.

You will be able to record full HD 120 and 4K high cinema-quality videos thanks to the high resolution 12MP F2.0 lens.

The lightweight and compact OLYMPUS Tough TG-6 will be your good companion during your adventures, whether you like skiing, hiking, or diving.

The body comes in attractive black & red color.

  • Excellent Microscope mode
  • Raw format images

Cons
