Camera OverviewOlympus C-7000 Zoom

The Olympus Camedia C-7000 Zoom is a point-and-shoot digital camera built around a 7MP, 1/1.8-inch sensor capable of capturing images at a maximum resolution of 3072x2304 pixels. It supports both sRGB and Adobe RGB color profiles, giving shooters some flexibility in how color data is captured and processed. The camera features a burst mode with a maximum frame rate of 2.2fps, useful for capturing fast-moving subjects within the constraints of a compact body.

On the display side, a 2.0-inch TFT LCD with 206,000 dots provides image review and menu navigation, while an optical tunnel viewfinder offers an alternative framing option. Autofocus is handled by a contrast detection system with a single focus point. For flash, the camera includes a built-in pop-up unit and extends compatibility to external flash via a proprietary hot shoe that supports Olympus FL-20 and FL-36 units.

ISO sensitivity runs from 80 to 400. The body is constructed from plastic with metal accents, measures 102 x 59 x 43 mm, and weighs 280g. Power comes from two AA batteries, with NiMH recommended, rated for approximately 200 shots per charge under CIPA standards.

Connectivity includes USB, though neither Wi-Fi nor Bluetooth are present. Video capture tops out at 640x480 at 15fps in 8-bit sRGB.
