Description — Olympus 7050
The Olympus Mju 7050 is a point-and-shoot compact camera designed for everyday use. At its core is a 14MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor producing stills at up to 4288x3216 pixels. The camera's 3.0-inch LCD with 230,000 dots of resolution handles all framing and playback duties, as there is no optical viewfinder.
Shooting flexibility is supported by an ISO range of 50 to 1600 and a built-in flash. Autofocus relies on a contrast detection system. For video, the Mju 7050 captures footage at up to 720p at 30fps.
Image stabilization is provided via Digital/Electronic IS. The body weighs just 145g and measures 95 x 56 x 26 mm, making it a genuinely compact carry. Storage is handled by SD and SDHC cards, and the camera connects to computers via USB.
It is powered by a Li-Ion LI-50B battery. Note that the camera has no weather sealing and no wireless connectivity options.
