Olympus X-560WP

Overview:

The waterproof, sporty X-560WP is one camera you won't need to handle with care. It's built to survive whatever you can dish out – the pool, the game, or even the beach. If you are the type that is always on the go, this camera can keep up.

Features:

• A revolutionary system of waterproof seals and gaskets keeps water out so you can take pictures as deep as 10 feet underwater.
• More than 10 million pixels in the high-resolution CCD create superior image quality. Create large prints without losing a single detail.
• 3x Optical Zoom brings you closer to the subject without taking a step.
• The 2.4" high-resolution LCD provides easy shooting and sharing of your images with friends and family.
• Intelligent Auto automatically identifies the scene you’re shooting and adjusts the settings to optimize results.
• With AF Tracking, the camera automatically tracks moving subjects and continuously adjusts the focus and brightness to capture them sharply with ease.
• Advanced Face Detection tracks up to 16 faces and automatically focuses and optimizes exposures for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures.
• With high ISO sensitivity and faster shutter speeds you can freeze the action to capture sharp, blur-free images even if you or your subject is moving.
• Perfect Fix corrects shooting mistakes instantly by lightening shadows and removing red-eye right on your camera.
• The In-Camera Help Guides provide a brief description of camera settings and features, conveniently displayed on the LCD, at the push of a button.
• Always get the best shot with 18 Shooting Modes. The preset Shooting Modes optimize your camera's settings for sharp, brilliant photos. Modes include Portrait, Sunset, Night Scene, Sports, Landscape, and many more.
• High ISO setting lets you minimize blurry images caused by movement and capture clearer, brighter images in low light.
• In addition to xD-Picture Card compatibility, the X-560WP comes with an adapter for microSD memory cards, an emerging electronic storage media for mobile phones, PDAs, and HDTVs.
