The Olympus Stylus 790 SW is meant for active people. Drop
it (from 1.5m/5ft), dunk it (to 3m/10ft) or freeze it (-10°C/14°F), and it
will keep taking photos.
The
Olympus Stylus 790 SW is a tough little camera with an elegant metal body, floating circuit board and innovative shock-absorbing construction. Waterproof seals and gaskets allow you to take it without fear into the pool or the ocean for underwater pictures and movies. These seals and gaskets also mean that the 790 SW is dustproof.
It is also winterized to perform at below-freezing temperatures -- perfect for skiing, snowboarding, sledding and other winter fun.
Face Detection automatically focuses on your subjects' faces and optimizes exposure for portrait pictures.
27 useful shooting modes, including 640 x 480 @ 30fps Movie with sound and 4 Under Water scene modes. Shadow Adjustment Technology brightens up shadows cast by bright sunlight.
There is no other digital camera like it in
its category. The ultra-compact, durable and stylish Olympus
Stylus 790 SW is available in five color options: Silver, Black, Blue, Green and Orange.
