Why compromise on
zooming power, image quality and wireless connectivity just because
you want a beautiful camera that fits in your pocket? In the compact
camera category, the SZ-10 stands out with head-turning design and a
world-class Olympus 18x wide optical zoom lens (28-504mm*), giving
you unheard-of flexibility in your choice of shot. Effortless zoom
performance lets you capture distant subjects that normal compacts
can’t reach in any detail. Plus you have the option to zoom out
wide, like when you need to get everybody into a big group portrait.
In addition to its fantastic zoom, the SZ-10 is bursting with the
smartest technology the compact camera world has to offer, so it’s
easy to get creative and capture movies and stills in excellent 14
Megapixel quality. Innovations like 3D photo shooting, Pet Detection
and eight Magic Filters take the (guess)work out of high-quality,
creative imaging and put the fun back in. What’s more, you can apply
most of the Magic Filters to HD movies as well as stills, including
the new Watercolour filter. For a camera in this category, that’s
another unique feature. Sharing and storing your shots on the SZ-10
is easy - thanks to Eye-Fi card compatibility, as soon as it’s in
range the camera can automatically upload new images wirelessly to
your computer or favourite website.
