The µ digital cameras

every moment 

counts 

Life is a constant stream of 

adventures, experiences and 

events. Sometimes subdued 

and romantic, sometimes 

surprising and exciting, 

sometimes moving, sometimes 

cheerful. But always 

unique. Each moment deserves 

to be captured so 

that it can later be remembered. 

And that with a camera 

which is as spontaneous as 

life itself: a µ from Olympus. 

Compact, always at hand 

and ready to shoot – and 

thanks to its sophisticated 

technology also able to record 

great photos in difficult 

situations. Life doesn’t wait 

until a camera is ready. Life 

is now. 

Accept no limits.

everything 

under control 

The cameras of the Olympus 

µ series are always ready for 

action. Their weatherproof* 

metal bodies take situations 

of dust or rain in their stride. 

Thanks to BrightCapture 

Technology, the live preview 

on the LCD is up to four 

times brighter than conventional 

models in low light, 

and it enables shooting 

without a flash on more 

occasions – which is ideal 

for museums or capturing 

the spirit of parties, etc. 

Sharp: 

Image stabilisation systems 

ensure sharp results where 

previously the risk of blur 

existed. High resolution 

image sensors with up to 

10 million pixels allow for 

brilliant, large-format prints. 

And an array of intelligent 

exposure modes let photographers 

concentrate fully 

on their composition. Which 

is good: because subjects 

seldom wait to be photographed. 

Innovative new image stabilisation technologies cater for sharper pictures, as they counteract the effects of blur.

Weatherproof * : 

All digital µ cameras feature a 

metal body which withstands 

splashes and raindrops. The 

µ 725 SW is even waterproof 

to a depth of 5 metres.

IEC standard publication 529 IPX4.

Better pictures with zoom. All µ cameras incorporate 

an optical zoom of at least 3x power – and some even 

feature zooming performance of up to 5x. In combination 

with the digital zoom, total magnification levels of 

up to 28x can be reached.

a thing of the past 

It’s happened to everyone: 

The subject was perfect, 

the lighting ideal, the shutter

precisely the right moment – 

but the photo turned out 

blurry. Were you too jittery? 

Or were you jostled by

photography 

What’s one of the first rules 

of photography? 

Get close to the subject! 

The closer, the better. But 

that’s not always possible. 

For this reason, the µ 750 

and µ 740 each boast a 5x 

optical zoom in an ultra- 

compact body – placing 

them well ahead of their 

competitors in terms of 

zoom performance. It facilitates 

the capture of subjects 

from distances that previously 

seemed unreachable. 

The 5x optical zoom spans 

a focal range extending 

from a wide-angle 36mm 

to 180mm tele (35mm equivalent 

values).
