Olympus µ[MJU:] 400 DigitalFor newcomers to digital photography, the new model comes with a selection of five scene programs (portrait, self-portrait, night scene, landscape, landscape plus portrait), and functions such as TTL autofocus and Digital ESP (Electro Selective Pattern) light metering which ensure the correct sharpness and brightness of the images. In addition to full auto white balance, four pre-set white balance modes allow the user to optimize the camera settings for shooting in light from a particular source, such as tungsten or fluorescent bulbs. Thanks to the 1.5-inch color LCD monitor, pictures taken can be shared with others immediately after capture. It further enables users to resize shots without needing a computer. A host of other functions such as macro and panorama mode, 2 in 1 shooting, recording of short movie sequences or the built-in-flash with red-eye reduction further heighten shooting enjoyment and extend the possibilities. After taking pictures, users have the option to change the photos captured in color, to black & white or sepia, giving compositions a special effect. The µ[mju: ] 400 Digital comes with the extremely compact storage media xD-Picture Card and a quick charger for recharging the ultra-small lithium-ion battery in a maximum of two hours.

I have had my Olympus 410 digital camera for just over a year now and must say I love it. I take it everywhere, it will slip into your jeans pocket or even a small handbag. Just the thing for those ' spur of the moment ' events that life is made up of, just to snap a memory. The draw back is if you take it out at night to a pub or club everytime you close the lens barrier you will need to reset for a dark room as it does'nt seem to do this automaticlly. The package that came with mine had everything in it to start you off, with extra battery and memory card. One tip is DO NOT turn camera onto its side to take long pictures as they are not so good when printing from your ...

I have had the camera for almost a year now, having bought it for my year of travelling through Europe. The camera is very simple to use and there are many options to choose from, including a movie choice. I have taken some excellent photos with the camera and many people have said that the pictures are very clear. The camera is weather proof, i have dropped it a couple of times and it is still working too! I would recommend the camera as it is good value for money and very easy to ...

This camera is one of the best available. The previous reviewer here has suggested that the camera is useless - that is certainly not my experience. I am a professional photographer and have used this camera extensively whilst travelling. I have taken many stunning pictures and in many cases the results rivals those from my conventional Nikon 35mm. I have compared the results with those from similarly specified Nikon, Fuji and Sony - in all cases the Olympus was the best. Battery life is excellent - I always carry a spare but rarely need it in a days shooting. I installed a 256MB XD Card which is quite adequate for my needs. This camera is easy to use, robust, ...
