Are you looking for a camera that is built to withstand constant everyday punishment? Or are you an active person wanting to capture those memorable moments whilst out and about? If so, the only choice is the Mju Tough 8000.
The top-of-the-line Mju Tough 8000, is the latest Tough model to be released from Olympus - the home of Tough digital cameras. From the tranquil to the turbulent, this extraordinarily rugged camera is as tough as they come.
New Dual Shakeproof CCD-Shift Image Stabiliser
Ideal for when you're out and about, the latest Mju Tough 8000 now comes with a Dual Shakeproof image stabiliser. The Dual Shakeproof CCD-shift image stabilisation mechanism combined with high-sensitivity shooting inherited from the Mju Tough 1030SW means you can enjoy shooting without having to worry about camera shake even in difficult outdoor conditions or amongst underwater swells.
What makes the Mju Tough 8000 the strongest digital camera in the world?
Waterproof to a depth of 10 metres
Culminating from experience gained in three years and 10 previous Tough cameras, we've optimised every aspect of this camera's construction to maximise its resistance to water pressure, so you can safely use the Mju Tough 8000 for underwater shooting without underwater dive housing equipment. From diving and snorkelling to surfing and waterskiing or other wet places, the Mju Tough 8000's superior waterproofing makes it the only choice to capture everything life has to offer - even when things get a little damp.

Designed and tested to Military standards by the Olympus Research and Development team, you'll have peace of mind your Mju Tough 8000 will withstand the rough and tumble of everyday life. All thanks to its foldable optical lens unit and floating electric circuit boards, the incorporation of shock-absorbing material inside the camera, combined with a shock-absorbing mechanism to protect the lens unit from impacts.

Crushproof to 100kg
The body of the Mju Tough 8000 is made from surface-coated rigid stainless steel and features a zinc die-cast battery compartment. The outer finish is resistant to damage and the overall structure is able to withstand a load as high as 100 kg being placed on it, so it can easily resist damage if subjected to heavy weight.

Camera disperses load pressure to protect electronics.
Snowproof to -10°C
Ordinary digital cameras are not usually guaranteed to function at temperatures below 0°C, but all internal electrical components of the Mju Tough 8000 are guaranteed to operate at temperatures as low as -10°C. This assures reliable shooting performance in cold conditions.
Have fun with Tap Control
If you're active and love the snow then Tap control mode is certainly for you. Tap control allows you to take a photo and play it back by simply tapping on the top, sides and on the back of the camera body, making it even more fun now to capture the moment.
