We will understand if you immediately fall in
love with the Olympus Stylus Verve Digital.
After all, it comes in six hot colours: White,
Silver, Black, Blue (more like Azure), Copper
(or, Orange) and Red, looks stylish and fun, and
easily fits in the pocket of your jeans.
Similar to the Stylus 410, the Verve has all-weather
protection. It has 4 megapixels resolution, 2x
optical zoom and 15 easy-to-use scene modes. The
Verve Digital does not have a viewfinder but has
a large (1.8 in.) and high-resolution (at 134,000
pixels) LCD monitor. A long shutter speed of 4
sec. is available to allow some night photography;
a supermacro mode allows you to move in as close
as 9 cm (3.5 in.).
The Verve Digital uses rechargeable Li-Ion battery
(battery and charger are included in the package).
It takes the xD-Picture Card, and is PictBridge-compatible,
allowing direct printing from the camera to a
PictBridge-compatible printer without going through
a PC.
Optional accessories: Olympus makes available
an optional metal neck strap (so you can hang
it around your neck as a fashion accessory), a
leather carrying case, a very cool-looking water-resistant
underwater housing which can be used as a fashionable
dust and weather-proof casing.
The Olympus Stylus Verve Digital should
appeal to those desiring a fun to use point-and-shoot
digital camera.
