  •   Tough construction for shockproof performance

    Tough cameras are fashioned for everyday punishment, combining compact stylishness with robust shockproof and waterproof construction. Like its predecessor, the Tough 770SW, the Tough 795SW is shockproof when dropped from up to 1.5 metres, crushproof up to forces of up to 100 kg, waterproof to a depth of 10m, and is capable of operating at temperatures as low -10°C. With a slim, square design evocative of a luxury timepiece, the silver body is both rugged and elegant.

    The Tough 795SW is shockproof to 1.5-metres, tested according to US Military Standards. It features a folded optical path lens, internal cushioning, a suspension mount for key electronic components, as well as a highly sturdy body. Meticulous engineering of both camera housing and LCD screen disperses load pressure thus enabling the camera to safely withstand a weight of up to 100kg. Built to cope with just about any outdoor use, the Tough 795SW can be taken almost anywhere without fear of damage or breakage.

    Reinforced to withstand water pressure at all key points, the Tough 795SW is waterproof to depths of up to 10 metres, enabling users to photograph while snorkeling, diving or surfing safari without using a protective housing. For mountain climbing, skiing and other winter sports, the Tough 795SW's cold-weather shooting capability opens up a whole new range of photo opportunities.
