Product Description

Amazon.com
Representing a winning combination of good looks and high performance, the Mju 790 SW is a real head-turner. With an exterior that’s waterproof** to 3m, shockproof* to 1.5m and freezeproof to -10 degrees, this model is primed and ready for use under extreme conditions. Take it skiing; take it swimming; take it wherever you go – the Mju 790 SW can take a true beating. Its stylish, metal housing comes in four colours – starry silver, midnight black, sunset orange or marine blue – making this sleekly-designed wonder even more fun. With 7.1 Megapixels, there’s plenty of resolution for fine details, or to crop or resize images later on a computer. And the 3x optical zoom (equiv. to 38-114mm) boasts a clever inner-folded light path meaning there are no protruding parts to get knocked.

Cutting-edge imaging technologies mean that the Mju 790 SW not only impresses with its toughness – but also with the enviable results of its photos. Integrated Face Detection Technology keeps human subjects sharp and well-exposed by automatically scanning the composition for faces and then adjusting the settings accordingly for an optimal outcome. A high ISO setting allows for increased sensitivity, which – when used in conjunction with BrightCapture Technology – yields significantly brighter results in low-light conditions. In addition, the powerful new TruePic III image processor works to deliver the truest colour reproduction, improved noise performance and faster overall camera speed. Furthermore, image results will closely reflect what the human eye sees – even under shadowy conditions. Thanks to Shadow Adjustment Technology, dark sections in a composition are identified and the exposure intelligently adjusted in these areas for the most realistic results.

23 scene modes, including four underwater modes, mean that getting the right settings in just about any photo situation is a cinch. Meanwhile, with 25 languages on board virtually everyone can navigate the menus in their desired language. Internal memory plus an xD-Picture Card slot allow the storage capacity to be easily expanded.

Product Description
Boasting a tough body, the 7.1 Megapixel µ[mju:] 790 SW has the ability to go where other cameras can?t. Whether at the beach, doing a round of snowboarding or navigating the hazards of a kids? party, this camera withstands it all. For shooting in up to 40m depth, the optional PT-041 Underwater Case provides additional waterproof protection. The µ[mju:] 790 SW matches brawn with performance. For versatility in locating and framing subjects, it features a 3x optical zoom (equiv. to 38-114mm). The ability to recognise human faces as the main subject of a composition through implementation of Face Detection Technology ensures optimal focus and exposure in the areas you want. What?s more, the µ[mju:] 790 SW applies innovative technology to deliver stunningly realistic results through the lightening of shadowy areas such as shade under a tree or backlit subjects. And ensuring photographic settings are tailored for most shooting situations, multiple scene modes are available, including four specifically made for use underwater. * According to Olympus test conditions ** According to IEC publication 529 IPX8 *** Equivalent to a 35mm camera

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing camera, 11 Sep 2007
By Mrs. J. Lovett "jolovett" (south wales, uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've had this camera for just over a week now and still exploring all the features. I've tried it out in the water and it is amazing how clear the pictures are.

It looks great and has some great features, like the scene settings and guides that show you on screen how the photo will come out differently if you change the settings. So easy and compact, would recommend to anyone looking for a fun, good quality camera.

5.0 out of 5 stars Handbags at the ready, 4 Nov 2007
By Ms. J. Dent (Warks) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ladies, how many cameras have you broken because they have been at the bottom of your handbag on a night out and you've thrashed it around?!

I've broken 3 so far by doing that.

If you have similiar problems you should Buy this camera! although I havent bought it yet I've thrown it round a room with an Olympus rep and I was very impressed how much it could stand up to!

This is a great camera and anybody thinking about buying it should go for it.
