Olympus Stylus 725 SW News Release Summary:
London, 23 August 2006 – Sometimes life can be hard, so you need
a digital camera that’s as hard as nails, such as the Olympus µ
[mju:] 725 SW. Waterproof to 5m* and shockproof to 1.5m**, the µ
[mju:] 725 SW is more than a match for today’s active
lifestyles. Earlier in the year, Olympus introduced the
innovative µ [mju:] 720 SW and its waterproof and shockproof
protection proved a huge hit.
The new Olympus µ [mju:] 725 SW is the worthy
successor to its crown, being waterproof to an even greater
depth of 5m*. The µ [mju:] 725 SW takes its protection from a
durably-constructed and yet great looking metal body, which is
available in three colours: Deep Blue, Cherry Red and Titanium
Grey. Image quality is equally impressive, due to a 7.1 million
pixel CCD and a sharp 3x optical zoom lens (equiv. to 38-114mm).
Framing photos on its large, 6.4cm LCD screen couldn’t be easier
either – even underwater.
Whether it’s being taken snorkelling in a rock
pool, mountain biking over rough terrain, or put in the hands of
a butterfingered four-year-old, you need never worry about the µ
[mju:] 725 SW. This tough little diamond of a camera delivers
great results, regardless of what life throws at it and will be
available from all good camera shops from October 2006, priced
at around Ł300.00. For stockist information call 0800 0720070 or
visit www.olympus.co.uk.
Whether you’re into extreme sports, lead an
active lifestyle, or simply would like to pass a camera around
at a children’s party without worrying that the kids might drop
it, you’ll appreciate what the µ [mju:] 725 SW will put up with
on your behalf. And, as it’s an Olympus, this ruggedness in no
way compromises the quality of the photos it delivers. A 7.1
million pixel CCD ensures pictures are packed with detail, and a
precision 3x optical zoom lens (equiv. to 38-114mm on a 35mm
camera) lets the photographer delve into the middle of the
action. As this specially constructed lens is housed wholly
within the camera’s metal body and doesn’t protrude like
conventional lenses, the chance of it getting knocked if play
gets rough is significantly reduced.
The µ [mju:] 725 SW is simple to use. A choice
of 24 special scene modes are on hand to take the fuss out of
photographing special subjects and the µ [mju:] 725 SW can even
record movies with sound (in 640x480 pixel quality) with the
duration of the clip only limited by the amount of memory
available.
Framing photos is easy on the 6.4cm LCD screen
which, thanks to BrightCapture Technology, really comes into its
own in low-light conditions – such as when photographing beneath
the waves! And should the photographer ever get flummoxed as to
what to do, they can consult the Guide Function, which gives
brief explanations of the camera modes directly on the LCD
screen – just like having the instruction book built in!
When other manufacturers say their cameras can “cope with
anything” they usually mean awkward lighting or focusing, they
don’t mean being dropped on the ground or dunked in water!
Shockproofing up to 1.5m** and waterproofing up to 5m*, as
featured on the Olympus µ [mju:] 725 SW, give a whole new
meaning to the phrase. This camera, perfect for active
lifestyles, will be in stores from October 2006, priced at
around Ł300.00.
