Olympus has launched the new mju 850SW - a casually styled addition to the Olympus Tough series of ruggedly constructed, shockproof, waterproof and snowproof digital compact cameras. Boasting an 8-megapixel sensor is the second-generation model in the Tough series, giving busy families the confidence to share a stylish camera with children without worry

Main Features:

• Shockproof to 1.5 metres, waterproof to 3 metres, and snowproof to temperatures as low as -10°C
• Advanced Face Detect & Shadow Adjust technology and high-performance image processor
• Compact and stylish body design

The mju 850SW inherits the rugged characteristics of the Tough series. Shockproof to 1.5 metres, Waterproof to a depth of 3 metres and Snowproof to -10°C, it is an ideal camera to keep up with the kids at the beach, around the pool, as well as for family camping trips, hiking, skiing and other outdoor situations in which users may encounter mud, sand, impact, or temperature extremes

Face-Detect and Shadow Adjustment Technology work together to detect subjects' faces and automatically adjusts focus and exposure to ensure that both the foreground subject and background scenery are exposed effectively. Together with the Tmju 850SW's 8-megapixel CCD and exclusive Olympus TruePic III image processor, this camera ensures the highest possible image quality in virtually any situation.

Salient Features for Olympus MJU-850 Digital Camera

Shockproof, Waterproof, and Snowproof operation guaranteed to -10°C
The mju 850SW packs rugged Tough series performance in a compact and stylish body. Capable of surviving 1.5 metre drop-impact tests, it is ideally suited to outdoor use. It is also waterproof to a depth of three metres to enable supreme confidence in a variety of outdoor scenarios, particularly around the children. The camera is guaranteed to operate at temperatures as low as -10°C and thanks to this cold-weather shooting capability, the mju 850SW allows photographers to capture the moment while out skiing, snowboarding or mountain climbing.

Face Detect & Shadow Adjust Technology and high-performance TruePic III image processor
The mju 850SW also features proprietary Face Detect & Shadow Adjust Technology. Unlike face-detection systems that set focus and exposure only for the face, Olympus Face Detect & Shadow Adjust Technology balances the exposure for both faces and backgrounds independently of one another. In backlit situations where the subjects face may be underexposed, conventional face-detection systems tend to overcompensate, and overexpose the background, causing loss of image detail. But with Olympus Face Detect &  Shadow Adjust Technology, exposure is adjusted to ensure that both people in the foreground and elements in the background are properly exposed.

An exclusive Olympus TruePic III image processor maximises the performance potential of the mju 850SW's high-resolution lens and 8-megapixel CCD by suppressing noise, ensuring smoother edge reproduction, and accurately rendering even the palest colours.
