Olympus 7-megapixel Digital Cameras

Olympus mju 790 SW

The Olympus mju 790 SW is a compact that loves the active life. Waterproof and shockproof, it doesn't forsake smooth styling to be robust, and while the toughness will hit you in the pocket, Olympus hasn't skimped on photo quality or features

Olympus Stylus mju 780

A couple of nice touches help to elevate the retro-styled Olympus Stylus mju 780 above 7-megapixel, 64mm LCD mediocrity. It offers 5x optical zoom, unusual in a camera of this class, and mechanical image stabilisation to cope with it, plus it's weatherproof

Olympus SP-550 UZ

Olympus is pushing superzoom boundaries with its new 7.1-megapixel SP-550 Ultra Zoom, which sports a massive 18x optical zoom lens, great ergonomics and sensor-shift image stabilisation

Editor's rating 6.3

Olympus FE-210

The FE series of digital cameras are designed to be simple, direct and require almost no choices, besides when to press the shutter button. The 7-megapixel, 3x optical zoom FE-210 is no exception

Olympus u [mju:] 760

The Olympus mju 760 is a good compact camera -- it's light and pocketable with logical, simple features and it comes in a choice of four colours. Its images aren't perfect but it's ideal for carrying with you wherever you go

Editor's rating 7.0

Olympus u [mju:] 770 SW

Olympus' robust mju 770 SW is waterproof to 10m and built to survive drops of up to 1.5m, making it the ideal choice for those wanting to keep a record of their active lifestyles

Editor's rating 6.8

Olympus FE-240

The attractive, compact Olympus FE-240 makes life a lot simpler by automating almost all of its settings. Its images are actually reasonably good, with accurate colours and very little lens distortion, but it is exceedingly slow

Editor's rating 6.6

Olympus u [mju:] 730

The Olympus mju 730 is a pretty camera with some impressive design aspects -- it has a slim, rectangular metal body with several striking characteristics that set it apart from other style-minded snapshot cameras -- however slow performance and image problems let it down somewhat

Editor's rating 6.2

Olympus u [mju:] 750 Digital

The Olympus mju 750 Digital is a very strong point-and-shoot camera, though its attractive images are hindered by mediocre performance. It has no manual exposure controls and isn't as responsive as we would like, but as a general point-and-shoot camera, it's still a very good choice

Editor's rating 6.8

Olympus SP-510 UZ

The 510 UZ looks impressive on paper, with loads of convenient and well-thought-out features, including manual exposure controls and a 10x optical zoom lens, but a lack of optical image stabilisation and unusually high noise mar this camera's outlook

Editor's rating 6.2

Olympus SP-320

With Olympus's 7-megapixel models, the SP-320 and the SP-310, the company caters to the casual photographer who wants a camera with more manual options than are offered by entry-level point-and-shoot models. The only difference between the two is the digital image stabilisation available on the Olympus SP-320

Editor's rating 6.8

Olympus u [mju:] 720 SW

The Olympus mju 720 SW is the most hardy µ to date. This ultracompact 7.1-megapixel camera is both shockproof and waterproof -- it can be safely dropped from heights up to 1.5m and is fully submersible up to 3m. Sleek, responsive and outfitted with image stabilisation, it makes a rugged and welcome travel companion

Olympus Evolt E-330 camera kit

Kodak used two sensors in its EasyShare V570 to enable its ultrawide second lens. Olympus puts a second sensor to better use with its Evolt E-330 -- providing its digital SLR with a useful live preview, just like those in standard point-and-shoot cameras
