Sony’s TX5 Is Ready To Go The Rounds With Water, Dust And Snow While Shooting HD Video

TX5 Digital Camera By Sony

Another day another point and shoot…or is it?  Sony’s TX5 is a tough as nails digital camera that is ready to go a few rounds with the elements and then some.  It can survive in down to 14 degree F, be dropped 5 feet, submerged in up to 3m of water and kicked around in the Mojave’s dust and keep on ticking.

On board is a 10.2 megapixel CMOS sensor, 4x optical zoom with image stabilization, 3-inch touchscreen LCD, a 720p movie mode and 10fps burst mode.  It looks like it will be available in a variety of finishes and hit the street this April for $350.
