OLYMPUS CAMEDIA C-770 Ultra Zoom

The Olympus CAMEDIA C-770 Ultra Zoom

Have you ever wanted to get so close that you are virtually a part of the action -and then follow its every move? The 4 million pixel digital still camera Olympus CAMEDIA C-770 Movie not only brings you to the heart of the matter with a powerful 10x optical zoom. It also records full-screen quality MPEG4 movies with sound.
This extraordinary picture quality allows full television screen presentations and means you no longer have to take both a digital still camera and camcorder when space is limited on trips. For the compact C-770 Movie doesn't simply take superb digital shots - it boasts a full-screen movie recording capability of 30 frames per second in MPEG4 quality, one of the most advanced of any existing digital still camera to date.

But that's not all. The new flagship in the Olympus Ultra Zoom range features a bright (f2.8 - 3.7) 10x optical zoom lens which comprises eleven elements arranged in seven groups. In addition, it includes two aspherical lenses to reduce distortion, plus an ED element which helps to minimise chromatic aberration, an effect that often occurs when shooting in the tele setting. In combination with a 4 million pixel CCD, this high precision optical system ensures pictures of great quality, even when printed in larger sizes. Thanks to the PictBridge standard, direct printing can be carried out with compatible printers, eliminating the need for a PC.

So that you can create an individual impression of your expedition, this model offers a broad palette of shooting modes, including Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority and Full Manual settings. The camera's range of scene programs (Portrait, Self Portrait, Night Scene, Sports, Landscape and Landscape with Portrait) proves extremely convenient when there is less time for adjustments. Thanks to the USB 2.0 AutoConnect interface, pictures and movies can be downloaded quickly and easily to the computer.

A host of additional features includes a hot shoe for an external flash and an optimised electronic viewfinder for 100% precise framing. Its 240,000 pixel resolution means that a clear picture is shown every time. As an added convenience, all activated settings are displayed in the electronic viewfinder, allowing you to keep your eye on the subject at all times.

For handling the files, two software packages are included. CAMEDIA Master 4.2SE software allows easy optimising, editing and managing of the image files, and Ulead VideoStudio7 SE Basic is included to edit and watch the MPEG4 movies on your computer.

Altogether, the C-770 Movie allows extremely versatile and comfortable shooting, exceeding the expectations of even the most discerning photographer.
