Description — Olympus C-450 Zoom
The Olympus Camedia C-450 Zoom is a compact point-and-shoot camera centered on a 4MP, 1/2.5-inch sensor producing images at up to 2288x1712 pixels in the sRGB color profile. Its fixed lens design contributes to a slim body measuring 108 x 57 x 40 mm and weighing just 170g, making it genuinely easy to slip into a bag or pocket. The 1.8-inch TFT LCD display handles image review and live framing, while an optical viewfinder provides an alternative.
Autofocus relies on a contrast detection system with one focus point. The built-in flash operates in four modes — Auto, Red-eye reduction, Fill-in, and Off — covering the most common flash scenarios. ISO sensitivity spans 50 to 400.
Battery flexibility is a practical strength: the camera accepts 2x AA (NiMH or Alkaline) cells or a CR-V3 lithium battery pack. Video is supported at 320x240 at 15fps in 8-bit color. USB connectivity handles data transfer. The plastic body carries no weather sealing.
