Aside from the new 300mm f/4 lens introduced at CES 2016, the Olympus Stylus Tough TG-870 is the other new photo product from Olympus. It follows last year’s TG-860 with incremental upgrades from the well-regarded tough, point-and-shoot.
New features on the TG-870 include AF-lock, a brighter LCD, new night shooting modes and Art Filters. If none of these features are a deal breaker, then you’ll be able to save a few bucks by picking up the TH-860 as it moves off the shelves to make room for the TG-870.
