  • Built for Precision Performance

    The light, slim Mju 830 weighs only 125g and has a thickness of only 24 mm, yet boasts a 5x optical zoom lens that offers the equivalent of 36-180mm zoom performance. At the maximum telephoto setting, the 5x optical zoom lens makes subjects appear approximately larger than they appear with a 3x optical zoom lens.

    Dual Shakeproof Image Stabilisation

    The Mju 830's Dual Shakeproof Sensor-Shift Image Stabilisation uses a new dual-axis gyro sensor to accurately detect camera shake, and prevents blur by shifting the CCD sensor to compensate. In addition, high ISO sensitivity Digital Image Stabilisation enables 8-megapixel imaging at sensitivities up to ISO 1600 to help reduce blurring caused by camera shake or subject motion. As a result, users experience fewer missed shots when working in low light or with active subjects, and can obtain sharper, clearer images even at high telephoto settings.

    High-resolution 8.0 megapixel CCD and TruePic III image processor

    The TruePic III image processor, originally developed for use in Olympus E-410 and E-510 digital SLRs, reduces noise, detects jagged edges to reproduce them smoothly, and reliably reproduces even pale colours, including skin tones. It works in conjunction with the camera's high-resolution lens and 8-megapixel image sensor to achieve truly outstanding image quality.
