When Olympus announced that their new OM-D Micro Four Thirds camera was ‘splashproof’ we’re not sure that they meant it as an invitation to start pouring pints of water over the thing.
Ballsy Spanish website Clipsite decided to put Olympus’s claims to a real test, pouring two points of water over the camera as the reviewer happily posed for pictures, firing off snaps as the water cascaded down on to the OM-D.
Happily, the camera emerged triumphant, and continued shooting despite the downpour.
Our Spanish isn’t particularly good, but we could just work out that the reviewer seemed very impressed indeed with the new Olympus OM-D.
You can check out their review here, or watch the waterworks below (the action starts around 2:50 minutes in):
Here’s another, somewhat more real-world test:
