Features
- 8.0 Megapixel Resolution
- The Stylus 840 with its 8.0 megapixel image sensor delivers high-quality images that are consistently sharp and vivid even when printed in large formats - perfect for
creating, poster-size enlargements or even cropping, without losing detail.
- 5x Optical Zoom Lens
- The Stylus 840's ultra-compact 5x zoom lens is made from precision-crafted glass that puts you 60 percent closer than a typical 3x zoom. There is also a 5.6x digital
zoom available for a combined zoom capability of 28x.
- Dual Image Stabilization
- Dual Image Stabilization technology combines mechanical Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization and Digital Image Stabilization to provide one powerful anti-blur solution for
capturing great images whether the photographer or the subject is moving. The Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization keeps images sharp by adjusting the CCD image sensor to
compensate for camera movement while the Digital Image Stabilization freezes the action with high ISO sensitivity and fast shutter speeds that prevent blurry images often
caused by a moving subject.
- TruePic III Image Processor
- The exclusive Olympus TruePic III image processor was developed for the demanding performance of Digital SLR (single lens reflex) cameras - it helps to produces
crystal clear photos using all the pixel information for each image to deliver superior picture quality with less image noise, more accurate colors, true-to-life flesh
tones and also promotes faster processing speeds.
- Face Detection Technology
- Face Detection Technology tracks faces within the frame and automatically focuses and optimizes exposure for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures. Even if your subjects
are moving, the camera continuously tracks your subjects' faces without having to press the shutter button.
- Shadow Adjustment Feature
- Bring out the details in the shadow and capture scenes exactly as you see them. While the human eye is capable of detecting the nuances between dark and light and all
the details in between, image sensors traditionally have not been quite as sensitive. The Stylus cameras address this challenge head-on with its innovative Shadow
Adjustment Technology, which compensates for extreme contrast where the shadow areas are underexposed and lack visible detail.
- Perfect Shot Preview
- The Perfect Shot Preview mode enables users to preview and select various photographic effects on a live, multi-window screen before snapping the shot, ensuring users
are capturing the exact image they want. It is an ideal way for novice users to learn about the effects of different photography techniques, such as zoom, exposure
compensation, white balance and metering.
- Panorama Mode
- The In-Camera Panorama mode captures three images and stitches them together to create one amazing panoramic picture. Simply press the shutter button and slowly pan
across a panoramic scene. (Requires Olympus Brand xD-Picture Card)
- TV-quality Video Recording with Pre-Capture Mode
- The Stylus 840 includes a high quality movie mode that captures VGA resolution video at a rate of 30 fps with sound, so you can use your compact digital still camera
to produce superb video clips, and leave the camcorder at home. The Pre-Capture Movie scene mode lets you capture two seconds of the movie before the shutter release, as
well as five seconds of the movie after the shutter release so you'll never miss the moment.
- Preset Shooting Modes
- The Stylus 840 offers a broad range of shooting modes to make it easy to take great photos in a variety of scenarios and lighting situations. Simply select the desired
mode for portraits, landscapes, night scenes, fast-action, macro and more. Some of the preset modes also provide Shooting Assist Functions such as the Shooting Guide and
Frame Assist functions.
