Continuing to offer the weatherproof Stylus line of cameras, Olympus has added a top of the line 10 megapixel camera. With it’s high shutter speed (as low as 1/1000th second) and high ISO rating (up to 6400), the camera can take extra sharp pictures with no blur, even with some camera movement. The Digital Stabilization feature allows you to edit out blurs that show up in the picture. The Stylus 1000 has a 2.5 inch LCD screen for previewing pictures, with a 3x optical and 5x digital zoom resulting in a 15x total zoom. The camera has 28.5 MB internal memory, which can be expanded using the company’s trademarked xD-Picture Card up to 2GB.
The camera measures 3.8” x 2.2” x 0.89” and weighs in at 4.9 oz without the battery or media card. This small camera with tons of extras sells for a suggested retail price of $399.99.
