Olympus mju 9000 review
The 12-megapixel mju 9000 packs a 10x optical zoom into a body no bigger than that of the average compact camera, making it unusually pocket-friendly. It's also attractively finished, responsive and delivers good results, although it has a tendency towards overexposure Read more

Olympus mju Tough-6000 review
The 10-megapixel mju Tough-6000 is a perfectly normal-looking, pocket-sized compact that just happens to be able to survive extraordinary amounts of abuse. Happily, its rugged nature doesn't detract from its photo quality or practicality either, making the 6000 extremely difficult to dislike Read more

Olympus mju-7010 review
The 12-megapixel mju-7010 is a great little camera that combines a compact body with a 7x wideangle zoom. Its pictures could be crisper and other cameras have longer zoom ranges without costing more, but the mju-7010 is so slim and neat that it's hard to resist Read more

Olympus mju Tough-8000 review
If you're looking for a compact camera that can withstand extraordinary levels of abuse, you might want to check out the mju Tough-8000, particularly as it also functions perfectly well as an everyday camera. The lens could be sharper but, otherwise, you have to look pretty hard to find any flaws with this beast Read more

Olympus mju 1030SW review
The Olympus mju 1030SW is a very tough and rugged 10-megapixel compact camera. It works to water depths of 10m, can be dropped from 2m and can even withstand a 100kg force. The camera takes great pics and is perfect for use in extreme conditions. Menus are easy to navigate Read more

Olympus mju 5000 review
The 12-megapixel mju 5000 is an extremely stylish and well-made compact camera. With unusual but excellent controls, a 5x zoom and 8 frames per second shooting, it's also a pleasure to use and takes great pictures. We're not entirely sold on the supported memory-card formats though Read more

Olympus Tough TG-310 review
The ruggedised Olympus Tough TG-310 is certainly a robust camera, but there are plenty of more resilient models out there. Its average performance and some usability issues don't do much to further this camera's cause. Read more

Olympus mju 850SW review
The 8-megapixel Olympus mju 850SW is a solid super-tough camera, which is waterproofed to 3m, freezeproofed for those extra cold conditions and rugged enough to withstand the impact if you accidently drop it. Its images are warmly coloured, while exposure and focus are excellent too Read more
