Product Description
A camera is always a matter of personal style. Based on this principle we developed the extremely slim, metal-bodied µ [mju:] 1040 which fits a 3x optical zoom to let you get close to your subject and take sharp high-definition photos. The extra-large 6.9cm/2.7” HyperCrystal LCD enables you to view your images in exceptional quality on the screen and makes framing easy, even in brilliant sunlight. And the Intelligent Auto Mode combines Advanced Face Detection and Shadow Adjustment Technology with the five most commonly used scenes. The Advanced Face Detection detects up to 16 persons in the scene. As a result, the µ [mju:] 1040 is the perfect symbiosis of seeing and being seen.

Style meets innovation
The Olympus µ [mju:] 1040 represents a new generation of style. Its sleek, thin metal body really makes a statement and comes in a dazzling array of colours. These include Starry Silver, Midnight Black, Magma Red and Melon Yellow, with a sliding lens cover that enhances the µ [mju:] 1040’s streamlined appearance. Rather than being cluttered with many buttons, a flat control panel serves to access most functions. This ensures easy navigation while simultaneously getting the hearts of minimal design enthusiasts racing.
High-tech features
The innovations incorporated in the Olympus µ [mju:] 1040 make capturing picture-perfect images a breeze. New is the Intelligent Auto mode. It identifies the most commonly-used scenes and then applies the settings to subsequent photos. Advanced Face Detection Technology lets up to 16 faces be recognised by the camera. Matched with Shadow Adjustment Technology, which cleverly optimises shadowy areas in picture, you can be sure that your human subjects are always caught in the right light.
Thanks to Digital Image Stabilisation which boosts ISO values, crisp and sharp photos are assured - even in low-light situations. Meanwhile, the powerful TruePic III image processor enhances colour reproduction and image quality as well as boosting speed.
Take charge
With the Olympus µ [mju:]1040, you are in control. Perfect Shot Preview lets adjustments to the image be shown on the LCD in real time. This makes it easy to choose the right settings to achieve the best effects. In cases where further assistance might be required, the in-camera help guide puts solutions at your fingertips. Users also have a choice of up to 39 languages for the camera menu. In addition to internal memory, pictures can be stored to xD Picture Card, or - thanks to a bundled attachment - to microSD Card. And to ensure easy handling of photos on a computer, the multifaceted Olympus Master software is also included.
