Get ready to experience compact digital photography in a new light. With an attractive metal body in silver or black plus a 5x optical zoom, the Olympus Mju 780 bestows photographers both beauty and brawn. The powerful lens lets users zoom in for candid shots at a party or frame nature scenes with added ease and flexibility. Integration of Dual Image Stabilization, combining a mechanical image stabiliser with high ISO settings, ensures images are doubly protected against unwanted blur caused by fast-moving subjects or camera shake - a feature that’s especially handy for shooting at higher magnifications. Packed with 7.1 Megapixels, this high-performance, stylish all-rounder is just what you’ve been waiting for.

Olympus Mju 780 - Weatherproof
Finished in a choice of stylish silver or black, the metal-bodied Olympus µ 780 offers endurance and power in one solid bundle. This weatherproof model not only can handle unexpected raindrops, but rewards photographers with picture-perfect results every time. The Olympus Mju 780 can be used in all manner of situations - rain, snow or shine - so photographers can keep shooting while others have to stop. Shadow Adjustment Technology optimises the exposure of scenes with shadowy or other dark areas - so the outcome closely resembles that which the human eye sees. Incorporation of a 5x optical zoom (equivalent to 36-180mm) provides great versatility to frame subjects, while Dual Image Stabilization ensures double-barrelled protection against the effects of camera shake.

Olympus Mju 780 - BrightCapture Technology
With the Mju 780, there’s no need to fear the dark. The integration of BrightCapture Technology makes framing shots a cinch by providing a brighter view on the 6.4cm HyperCrystal LCD. In addition, the ISO value is increased to 1600 while retaining full resolution. Pictures taken in low light situations are therefore considerably brighter and clearer than is customary - so it’s easy to capture the ambience of faces around a campfire or atmospheric indoor shots in great quality. This technology is applied in various scene modes plus for movie recording (30fps). For added comfort in the dark, illuminated buttons are included to help improve shooting and menu navigation.

Without lenses the digital SLR camera would not be complete and it is for that reason we see a huge number of digital SLR lens introductions appear this year. There are multiple camera manufacturers offering their best own brand solution for its DSLR camera, but there are even more specialized lens manufacturers who offer an impressive number of lens solutions too.
