Olympus Stylus 840 8-megapixel digital camera with 5X optical zoom

Black

Take great snapshots of a neighborhood cookout or family reunion with this compact 8-megapixel camera. The Stylus 840 has 5X optical zoom to pull subjects in close, so you'll see more of your playful puppy and less of the yard in your frame. Its large LCD screen features anti-glare technology and five different brightness settings, so you can easily compose and review your photos, even in direct sunlight. And image stabilization offsets accidental hand movement while you shoot, helping you capture sharp, blur-free pictures.

Face detection packs your portraits with detail. The camera automatically focuses on the faces in your frame and adjusts exposure to record realistic skin tones. A live multi-frame preview mode lets you see several versions of your image at once on the LCD screen, so you can select the best camera setting for your shot before you ever snap the shutter.

The camera's built-in 14.8MB memory holds about 3 pictures at top resolution — add optional xD-Picture Cards™ for more storage.
