Olympus Stylus 1030 SW ‘one for thrill-seekers’
31 Jul 2008
There are a number of things thrill-seekers should bear in mind when shopping for digital cameras, according to one expert.
In an article published on the Lindsay Post website, Michelle Finch states that outdoor adventurers need to consider what the camera will be used for and the conditions it will have to endure.
Whether a camera can deal with being bounced around on horseback or handle extreme conditions such as ice cold snow, intense heat or raging rapids, can be an important part of some people’s buying decision.
She states that one model, the Olympus Stylus 1030 SW, claims to be just the right model, as the manufacturer claims it is “shockproof, waterproof, freeze-proof and, possibly most enticingly, shake-proof”.
The camera is a 10.1-megapixel model that weighs 200 grams and can be taken to an underwater depth of up to ten metres.
Olympus’ Stylus 1030 SW is available in silver of black and has a 3.6x wide optical zoom, face detection, BrightCapture technology and 24 scene modes.
