Please see Product Features for more details.] The latest models of Olympus's FE line of point-and-shoot digital cameras combine ease-of-use, style, and performance to deliver a seamless digital experience. The 5.1-megapixel FE-130 produces high-quality images at affordable prices. But one of its greatest assets is its built-in Help Guide that can take users from menus that describe the camera's functions directly to the settings needed to take a picture (without the need to carry a manual).
Built-in Help Guide for Easy Operation
The enhanced Help Guide on the FE-130 incorporates a built-in manual that explains all of the terminology of specific functions; a reference that explains the preprogrammed scene modes; and a tutorial shooting guide that educates users on how to accomplish specific effects, such as shooting into backlight and adjusting coloration. The shooting guide not only provides detailed descriptions for various photographic scenarios, but also actually sets the camera with the touch of a button, making the transition from learning to doing instantaneous.
One-Touch Design--Quick and Easy Access with Individual Buttons
The FE-Series cameras feature an easy-to-use One-Touch design with individual buttons for shooting, reviewing, and deleting images conveniently located on the top of the cameras, with icons that allow frequently used functions to be accessed easily. The Help Guide, direct print, zoom, and delete options are at your fingertips. Macro mode, Flash mode, and a self-timer are located on an arrow pad for quick use while setting up the perfect composition.
Pre-set Shooting Modes Make It Easy to Capture Great Images
The inclusion of 22 shooting modes, accessible via a rotating dial and menu button on the back of the camera, makes it easy to capture great images in a variety of lighting situations, such as Sunset, Portrait, and Night Scene. QuickTime Movie mode enables users to create short movies of events that can be e-mailed to family and friends.
Digital Image Stabilization Mode
The FE-130 features Digital Image Stabilization Mode for capturing crisp, clear pictures--free from the blur sometimes caused by camera shake or moving subjects--with high ISO sensitivity and fast shutter speed.
Large LCD Provides Clear Images
The large 2.0-inch LCD makes it easier to see clear images when composing shots, as well as when gathering friends and family around to view the results, all without having to lug a laptop around to present your portable photo gallery exhibit.
Total 12x Seamless Zoom
The 3x optical zoom lens of the FE-130 is a 6.3 to 18.9mm (38 to 114mm equivalent in 35mm photography) that combines with a 4x digital zoom to deliver a total 12x zoom, so almost no photo opportunity is out of reach. The high-resolution CCD image sensor captures all the details in your images to create prints without a loss of clarity. The cameras produce high-quality prints that can be cropped and enlarged to 13 by 17 inches.
Fast Response with TruePic TURBO Image Processor
The millions of pixels on the CCD image sensor of the FE-130 integrates with Olympus's exclusive image processor, TruePic TURBO, to significantly enhance image quality and deliver faster overall processing speeds for rapid startup, shutter release, and playback. TruePic TURBO enables the camera to capture information from every pixel with pixel "micro-smoothing" that delivers clearer and more color-accurate photos, even at lower resolutions. Superb high-quality images that are consistently sharp and vivid even in large-format prints are the result. The fast startup and nearly instant shutter release time ensure a high-speed response, so you'll always be ready to take great pictures.
In-Camera Editing Features
The new FE-Series enables users to add colorful borders and titles on their images, adjust brightness and saturation, crop and resize images, switch from color to black and white or sepia, even fix red-eye--all without using a computer.
Simple Connection to PC
Connecting any FE-Series camera to a computer is easy with the USB AutoConnect feature, which connects the camera directly via USB 2.0 cable and requires no software.
Olympus Master Software
On a Windows PC or Mac, Olympus Master software provides the ultimate in digital imaging management. An intuitive user interface makes downloading to your computer quick and simple. Images are searchable by date or keyword in the Calendar View. With one-click editing tools, such as red-eye reduction, images can be touched up before printing or e-mailing. Online support, templates, and other user services are just a click away.
