Title: My TG-3 is MIA
Post by: Woolly Bugger on July 03, 2019, 15:34:44 PM
Can't find it anywhere, even emptied out the car  :o

Last time I used it was 6-15 up on the Smith Mirror Plant.  <-;:

It is red with a red strap and the bezel around the lens is missing.

The tab on the battery compartment door is broken.

I miss it ... :banana072:

hmmm, 6-15 was the last time I used it... I downloaded the photos so now I'm totally clueless to what happened to it...

If I order a new one, the old one will show up  n!n  :banana026:  <-;:

If it makes you feel any better, my TG-4 is MIA as of yesterday.  It is probably at Ely MN.

Lesson learned, don't let the kids borrow your valuable possessions.

When my Ricoh WG-5 goes MIA ,I usually find it in the charger or in a shirt pocket/ vest. Check in your waders also

And in your spare pair of wading boots. That's where Fred's disappeared to at Spring PFF.

In that case, sounds like you need a new camera. TG5?  /'/

I bit the bullet and bought me a TG-5 a couple years ago. I've liked it so far. I love that they're waterproof. And small. I killed my last Canon when I got caught in a torrential downpour back on Lost Bottom Creek several miles from my truck.

I'll write up the history of my fishing cameras in another post

Well, I was trying to move this thread to the photo section, but tapacrap module is messing with things...

The new TG-6 arrived today. Took a while to get it set up the way I like for the custom modes one for regular fishing pics and the other set for macro (bugs and the like) photos.

There are a few new features that the TG-3 didn't have and I'm not sure how I like them.
1. The zoom is a rotating collar on the shutter button there was a toggle on the old one
2. Added a exposure compensation dial behind the shutter bottom old method was to access the menu
3. A small toggle switch for logging gps data. This looks like it will be easy to break off or cause problems
4. Video much improved with 4K @ 30 FPS 1080 at up to 120 FPS, 240 FPS at 720 and 480 at 640x480 (vga res)
5. There is now a locking button for the bezel ring and accessories, like the filter ring and telephoto lens
6. Has raw capture (much better for exposure correction and other adjustments)
7. Now uses a generic USB cord. Yeah!

I have a bag for my laptop and it has two zippered side pockets. I put the new TG-6 in one side the other day and went to retrieve it today and when I unzipped the pocket I pulled out the old TG-3, I must have only checked the other pocket when I was looking for it... crazy I know and I actually checked that bag twice and thought I emptied it out.  <-;:

I now know I actually looked in that pocket, but failed to feel all the way to the bottom, usually the red strap is hanging out making the camera easy to spot!
