DigIT reviews the
Olympus Stylus / Mju 720SW
DIWA
Awards member DigIT
has just published their review of the Olympus
Stylus / Mju 720SW digital camera. [Editor's
note: review is in norwegian.] The Olympus
Stylus / Mju 720SW features 7.1MP resolution,
is waterproof AND shock proof. Here is Kai
Thon's summary of his review [translated
into English]:
The
Olympus Mju 720SW is a unique mini camera,
not primarily because of its 7.1 MP image
resolution and fully integrated 3x zoom
lens, but thanks to its water-proof and
shock-resistant casing of steel and aluminium.
The camera seems to be the ideal choice
for any outdoor activities, both on land
and at sea, regardless of event or weather
conditions. Also, parents may now leave
the picture taking to careless kids without
fear of expensive consequences.
Although the price is slightly higher than
for ordinary mini cameras, we raised a question
whether the extreme exteriour has come at
the cost of its inner qualities. Not at
all, in most respects the image quality
is higher than usual for this type of camera,
although the folded lens design does have
its weaknesses.
Also, the buttons and controls are too
small for comfort and the grip is too slippery.
At times, the lack of an optical viewfinder
is also missed, as the LCD screen does not
provide optimum viewing clearity in bright
sunlight.
Its weak points are too minor to influence
on our general impression that the Olympus
Mju 720SW has what it takes to satisfy its
targeted audience. We have yet to see a
mini-compact digital camera in a more versatile,
robust and family-friendly package.
