The camera’s design is based on the stylish Olympus µ[mju:] series, the most successful analog camera series ever with sales of over 10 million worldwide. Inside, it employs the latest technology and an array of innovative features to ensure that this digital compact zoom camera not only looks good but delivers excellent results as well.
Great zoom performance and image clarity are provided by a high-resolution optical 3x zoom lens, consisting of eight elements in six groups with 2 aspherical lenses. A 2x digital tele gives further flexibility. However, despite the high quality lens configuration, the CAMEDIA C-920ZOOM weighs only 270 g (without batteries and SmartMedia card) making it an extremely lightweight, versatile model and ideal for both business and private use.
A precise TTL autofocus system and high performance 1/2.7 inch CCD combine to deliver digital photos with impressive true colour and stunning detail at a maximum resolution of 1.31 million pixels.
The Olympus C-920ZOOM is equipped with a new 4.5 cm TFT LCD. Its wide viewing angle allows several people to see the photos at the same time. It is also possible to decide how the images should be shown: alone, in an automatic sequence like a slide-show or in index groups of four, nine or 16 pictures. Furthermore, the display shows among other things, the date/time, image number, write protection, picture quality, deletion and battery level.
In addition to the manually adjustable ISO sensitivity (equivalent to ISO 160, 320 and 640) this model also includes a TTL digital ESP light metering system that always ensures optimal exposure – even in poor light.
To capture all the action, up to four sequence shots can be taken in Super High Quality (SHQ) mode at 0.6 frames a second.
The C-920ZOOM comes together with CAMEDIA Suite software and a SmartMedia card with panorama function. It accepts up to 64 MB SmartMedia cards which come with a choice of functions: panorama, calendar, title and template. More than 60 images taken in Standard (SQ) mode can be stored on just one 4 MB SmartMedia card.
Also comprising an intelligent flash system and optical real image viewfinder, the CAMEDIA C-920ZOOM has been released in Europe in August 1999.
