The Olympus Mju 7030 features 1GB internal memory and SD Card compatible .The Olympus Mju 7030 allows pictures tagged by event, person, or location (using Face Recognition and GPS) to be located easily.

Olympus Mju 7030The 7x optical zoom ensures you’ll never be at a loss when capturing a group of friends or a point in the distance. Then simply flip through the results using the new Photo Surfing option. The camera allows pictures tagged by event, person, or location (using Face Recognition and GPS) to be located easily. The 2.7″ LCD screen on the Olympus Mju 7030 makes sharing or looking up the latest trick in the In-Camera Manual all the more enjoyable.

Olympus Mju Digital 7030 incorporates a panorama mode
Providing two-fold protection, this special function helps to avoid image blur caused by camera shake or fast-moving subjects. The Olympus Mju 7030 combines high ISO values with a CCD-based mechanical image stabiliser, where a built-in gyro sensor detects camera movement and adjusts the CCD accordingly. A in-camera panorama mode allowing users to instantly compose panoramas of approx. 130° right inside the camera. By framing each shot in step with the on-screen guide, exciting panoramic scenes can be stitched together for a more realistic and emotional depiction of any landscape or skyline.

Olympus Mju-7030 features AF tracking system and face detection
The advanced face detection technology on the Olympus Mju 7030 searches for faces in a composition and recognises them as the main subject. The camera then automatically puts them in focus and optimally adjusts exposure to create an image that’s sharp in the right places and ideally exposed. Advanced Face Detection Technology can detect up to 16 faces. Furthermore, an AF tracking system tracks the moving subject automatically and keeps it continually in focus for pictures that are optimally focused and exposed. The Olympus µ 7030 also memorises subject data even when the subject goes out of frame and resumes tracking when it reappears. Moreover the Beauty mode touches up the appearance of subjects even while the shot is being taken. The Beauty mode feature recognises faces and automatically makes skin on the face and adjacent areas appear smoother, brighter and more youthful.

i-Auto mode on the Olympus Mju 7030 camera
The “intelligent-Auto” mode uses advanced automatic detection technology to allow the Olympus 7030 camera to recognise the five most commonly used scenes automatically. The new Olympus digital camera enables the capture of perfect photos without any need for manual settings. Olympus also offers [ib] software, an integrated photo browsing and organising software. Using the software on a PC, images can be organised by person, by place or by event. The information tagged in each photo allows selected pictures to be viewed on a PC.

Olympus Mju 7030 incorporates Magic Filters
Enables special artistic effects to be created directly in the camera.
• Pop Art: Enhances colours, making them stronger and more vivid to create high-impact pictures that express the happy, light-hearted feeling of the pop art style.
• Fish-Eye: Reproduces the dramatic effect of a fish eye lens, lending a new perspective to the whole scene with a “round” effect.
• Sketch: Gives the impression that subjects have been sketched by an artist by transforming images into line drawings.
• Pin Hole: Reduces the peripheral brightness like an image seen through a pinhole. Added to this is a unique colour tone that results in a style that has an air of secrecy or portrays the feeling of being lost in another dimension or space.
