Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Fashions come and go but real style is timeless. This is certainly true for the Olympus [mju: ] brand. For over ten years, the [mju: ] has been a synonym for stylish and elegant analog cameras. Now it enters the digital age with the [mju: ] 400 Digital. The flowing, elegant lines and compact, metal body of these models make sure you are the center of attraction, no matter whether you're at a chic event or low-key get-together. But they are more than lifestyle accessories for the party circuit. These models are also the first digital cameras in the world with weather-proof metal bodies so shooting may continue even after the rain has started. The versatile 3x zoom lens (equivalent to 35 - 105mm on a 35mm camera) gets you closer, be it to the flirtatious smile coming from across the room or to your friends' activities on the ski slope. Operation of the [mju: ] Digital cameras is easy. With advanced automatic modes and scene programs, you can just enjoy shooting digital while letting the camera do the work. Recording in up to four million pixels and using a small, high-precision lens constructed especially to suit each camera's CCD, these new cameras deliver high-quality images that impress even when printed in A4 format.For newcomers to digital photography, the new model comes with a selection of five scene programs (portrait, self-portrait, night scene, landscape, landscape plus portrait), and functions such as TTL autofocus and Digital ESP (Electro Selective Pattern) light metering which ensure the correct sharpness and brightness of the images. In addition to full auto white balance, four pre-set white balance modes allow the user to optimize the camera settings for shooting in light from a particular source, such as tungsten or fluorescent bulbs. Thanks to the 1.5-inch color LCD monitor, pictures taken can be shared with others immediately after capture. It further enables users to resize shots without needing a computer.A host of other functions such as macro and panorama mode, 2 in 1 shooting, recording of short movie sequences or the built-in-flash with red-eye reduction further heighten shooting enjoyment and extend the possibilities. After taking pictures, users have the option to change the photos captured in color, to black & white or sepia, giving compositions a special effect. The [mju: ] 400 Digital comes with the extremely compact storage media xD-Picture Card and a quick charger for recharging the ultra-small lithium-ion battery in a maximum of two hours.

5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute class act from Olympus, 24 April 2004
By DAVID JOHNSON (West Yorkshire, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Received my MJU400 yesterday and am totally impressed. The imagescaptured are of a very high quality with colours being reproduced with areassuringly natural look and I'm sure once I've played with the camerasmodes/settings they will get even better.
The camera feels extremely well built, the lens pops out quickly when thelens cover is pulled to one side and the menus have been relatively easyto get to grips with.
I was delighted to discover when connecting the MJU400 to my PC (runningwindows 98), using the USB cable supplied, it appears as another drive inWindows Explorer so I can drag and drop the files straight onto my harddrive for editting using my own choice of software. This suits me as Iprefer not to have to use the software bundled with the camera totransfer/edit images.
I would recommend adding a 128MB XD card to your order as the 16MB cardincluded will only store 5 pictures taken in "Super High Quality" and 16taken in "High Quality". The 128MB olympus card I've got allows for 45pictures in SHQ mode.
All in all, I am delighted with my choice and would highly recommend theMJU400.

5.0 out of 5 stars a great little number, 2 Jul 2003
By G. Mcgeachie - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It's a great little camera. I bought it to replace my Canon SLR (sacrilege!), for several reasons, but mostly because I'm not the cameraman I thought I was when I bought the Canon. So far, I haven't missed any of the features of my SLR, but it's still early days. I'm certainly not missing that annoying wait to see just how good or bad the photos are. I might wish I could attach a more powerful flashgun, I'll have to see when I take some serious shots.
The mju 400 is built like a Mercedes, with one niggly flaw that I've come across - it's easy (I've done it twice in three days) to push open the battery cover if you're handling the camera. It's OK when you're handling it to take pictures, just be careful when you're admiring it. So far, the battery hasn't fallen out.
The supplied software is nicely featured, though don't expect it to compete with Paintshop Pro for editing. Downloading 30-odd photos and a movie took just a minute or two. The amount of information it records for each photo (e.g. was flash auto triggered, or did you tell it to) is brilliant. However, the software is very inefficient. It completely takes over the CPU of my 700MHz PC, and I've had to turn the PC off a couple of times.

5.0 out of 5 stars Little Beauty, 28 Jul 2003
By A Customer
Well I have to say that I was amazed at the size of this camera when it arrived, it's tiny ! You know what they say about things in little packages, it certainly holds true in the case of this camera. Not only is it great to look at, but the quality of pictures is outstanding. The controls are very simple to use, my wife was snapping away happily in no time. The back is uncluttered leaving menu controls via a virtual wheel displayed in the lcd monitor.The menu sytem is easy to pick up with a bit of "playing" This is a perfect camera for persons who want the point and shoot simplicity of a compact, but produce the picture quality of a very decent SLR. It may not have enough manual overides and bells and whistles for the semi- professional photographer, but it certainly delivers in terms of results. It will slip into a small shirt pocket and ready to snap in a couple of seconds from sliding the lens cover over. If you buy one make sure you get yourself an extra xd memory card, the 16 mbyte supplied will only hold sixteen at high quality, and 5 at Super high quality! I purchased a 128 mbyte card. That will give you a whopping 133 snaps at HQ, and around 45 SHQ. The battery lasted a good 15 hrs + with the monitor off. It can also be topped up at any time, so don't worry about any battery memory problems. A spare battery will set you back about £30. When on holiday I charged it in the evening and it was ready for a full days shooting. For portraits, macro and landscape I'd recommend you use Super high quality. Dont forget it's All Weather, I used it during rain etc without a problem (a common british problem). The software provided is very user friendly too, connecting to a usb on the computer was simple to do. A word of warning, if you intend to use the panorama facility make sure you purchase an Olympus xd card, the Fuji don't allow this feature! If you want a simple to use beautiful looking camera with great results!
