The Olympus Stylus 740 All-Weather (Mju
740 Digital in UK) has 7.1MP resolution, 5x
optical zoom, a high resolution (215,000 pixels)
and large 2.5-in. LCD monitor. Like all Stylus
digital cameras, it is protected by All-Weather
seals and gaskets that renders it splash-proof,
dust-proof and snow proof.
Digital Image Stabilization (DIS) favours a high
ISO (up to ISO 1600) and fast shutter speed to
reduce or eliminate blurred shots caused by camera
shake and subject movement.
Bright Capture Technology helps you frame shots
on the LCD in dimly lit conditions. Coupled with
Available Light Portrait, Indoors, Candle, and
Image Blur scene modes, this enables you to view
and capture low-light shots.
The Olympus Stylus 740 provides 27 useful shooting
modes, including QuickTime (640
x 480 @ 15fps) with sound.
PictBridge technology enables photos to be printed
directly from the camera to any PictBridge-enabled
printer.
The Olympus Stylus 740 should appeal to
those desiring an ultra compact with all-weather
protection and the Stylus famed ease of use.
