The Olympus Camedia C-770 Ultra Zoom sports
a 10x optical zoom with a 35mm format equivalent
of 38-380mm. It has 4.0 megapixels resolution,
Program Auto, Aperture-Priority, Shutter-Priority,
and full Manual modes. If you like to get in close,
macro focus is at 3 cm (1.2 in.). Maximum aperture
is F2.8 and shutter speeds range from 1 sec. (manual
16 sec.) - 1/1,000 sec.
The Olympus C-770 has clean elegant lines, with
a built-in pop-up flash. It also has a dedicated
hotshoe for the use of an external flash. It records
MPEG-4 QuickTime movie at 30fps, limited only
by the size of your memory card.
The Olympus C-770 is PictBridge-compliant which
means that you can connect directly to any PictBridge-enabled
printer (of any brand) via USB for quick and convenient
printing of your images, without needing to go
through a computer.
Optional accessories for the Olympus C-770 include
a wide-angle converter and a teleconverter lens.
[Editor's Note: The Olympus Camedia C-765 Ultra
Zoom is practically similar to the C-770 but does
not have a hotshoe and records movie at 15fps.]
