Olympus Styles 770 SW review at Steves Digicams : Our good friends at Steves Digicams have published their review of the Olympus 770 SW camera. The 7.1 Megapixel Olympus 770 SW gives users a sense of freedom never before seen in a camera of this class. Its eye-catching, metal body is waterproof to 10m, shockproof against falls from up to 1.5m, and freezeproof to -10 degrees Celsius, all without the need for an extra case. Because BrightCapture Technology increases light sensitivity for shooting and boosts contrasts on the 6.4cm HyperCrystal LCD, better photo results in low light are a reality. The technology is applied in various scene modes making it easier to frame and capture atmospheric shots with less need for the flash.

Olympus 770 SW - Design
According to Steve Digicams: "Ergonomics for the Stylus 770 are good. It's compact enough to be carried in the smallest pocket or handbag, while still large enough to fit comfortably in your hands. The various controls on the back are well placed and functional, with your thumb falling over them naturally. The Menu system is logically organized, and the new Function shortcut menu is great for making quick changes to ISO, White balance, Metering, or Drive mode. The large 2.5-inch "HyperCrystal" LCD worked well outdoors, but it would benefit from an anti-glare coating since there are still many angles that reflect the sun."
Olympus Stylus 770 SW review conclusion - Steves Digicams
Steve continues: "Image quality was quite good for a 7-megapixel consumer model. For outdoors, the captured images were well exposed, with good color saturation. With its TTL auto focus system and 3x optical zoom lens, the 770 produced sharp, clear photos with little edge softness. With a 35mm equivalent range of approx. 38-114mm most outdoor shots were in the telephoto end of the zoom range. The 38mm wide angle will allow good landscapes and small group portraits however there is some barrel distortion at full wide angle." You want to learn more about the Olympus Stylus digital camera?
