Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.    Looking for a camera that can take whatever you can dish out  outdoors this summer.    Might want to line up for Panasonic’s new Lumix TS7.    Product Manager Sean Robinson says it can go where most smart phones can’t…and come back with some great photos…

“Designed to be able to take everything from 31 meters underwater, 6 and a half foot drop test, freeze, dust, splash, pressure proof.  But we’ve taken a bit of a design change on this one by enlarging the camera size.”

To make room for an electronic viewfinder.   If you’re like me, that’s a big plus.   It has roughly a four and a half times optical zoom as well and a 20 megapixel sensor….in a package selling for about 500 dollars.
