Customer Review

What interested me about this camera was mainly their resistance to shock, water or Gekratz. They can virtually always carry in your pocket, and without pressure surges, neither sweat nor rain water can not harm anything. Since the lens once inside the housing and extends, one is dealing with a situation in each beautifully flat and handy apparatus.

Of particular note is the ability to Monitur herumzuklappen, so that one does not even have his head in the water, from which you shoot, or does not have to lie on the ground to photograph a low line growing bloom on this camera. The lately so popular Selfies in photo and video form can be prepared by fine.

Like their simultaneously released on the market sister SH-1 also has the presented TG-850 only a very limited user menu. This means in particular that it is necessary to manually set up time and shutter priority, as well as to the possibility of shutter speed and aperture and sharpness of the image, without.
But this is just not a professional camera. There is only automatic program with the possibility of ISO and image brightness to determine, but the latter can also readjust to each free image editing program, so that this operating possibility consequently also could omit.

The case of the SH-1 disappeared from the user interface of the camera macro mode is supported on this camera a place on the adjustment dial sought, on the also automatic, motivational and "Art" - programs are selected.

Because you can zoom very little (5x) with this in the spatial extent very limited objective, you know to appreciate the opportunity to be able to approach its object up to 1cm. That most lively objects shocked at the appearance of a camera in their immediate vicinity take flight, has now first little to do with the possibilities of the camera itself. In fact, it is so that one with a greater zoom range Klei neste objects much better before the lens gets as with a camera, with which you can get so close to go to an object that you already own casts shadow with the camera and are thereby unfotografierbar leaves.

The Auto Picture as well as the image stabilizer function very well, so that you actually never have to worry about the camera settings and easily make out of your hand in just seconds snapshots in air or water.

It should be noted that the camera does not have a focus assist light and therefore in doubt, the flash lamp is used. This can provide such a stir and uncertainty in some situations, that you be well advised to leave the auxiliary light is first switched off.

The resulting photos (I have the resolution of the absurd in such a small image sensor 16 megapixels on Memory friendly 8 megapixel throttled) see also on your home computer very well, and I do not now investing the highest standards of image quality, since this camera priced yes rather moves in the field of low snapping. Among the cheap snapping beats with its shock and water resistance and its excellent image quality, however.

Even the videos that are recorded with stereo sound, are in picture and sound quality quite useful.

This camera is all leisure clippers, which are its camera is not used to treat with kid gloves, highly recommended.
