Olympus Stylus Tough-6000 Express Review at The Imaging Resource – The Verdict:
We were pleasantly surprised to find that shots from the Olympus Stylus TOUGH-6000 could make good-looking prints as large as 13 x 19 inches at its lowest ISO setting. At that size, the prints were just slightly soft-looking, but more than adequate for display on a wall at any kind of normal viewing distance.

How the Olympus 6000 fared in DPReview’s ‘Waterproof’ Camera Group Test (Q2 2009) – In this Digital Photography Review’s test, the Olympus Stylus Tough 6000 (mju Tough 6000) emerged “Middle of the road” in almost every test category.
Don Wan, the reviewer, wrote:
The Olympus Tough 6000 is slightly better the the Tough 8000 and Fuji Z33, and manages to resolve better detail than its bigger brother despite the 8000 having more megapixels.
The Canon D10 and Pentax W60 were picked as first and second choice, respectively, in the test.
