---------------------
Whether you’re enjoying a wedding or a fun weekend afternoon,
the new Olympus FE-26 will consistently capture extraordinary,
in-focus pictures of your family and friends. Inside their new
premium crystal shell finish, the FE-26 packs 12 megapixels,
creative in-camera Magic Filters like Pop Art and Pin Hole that
make your images stand out, and new AF Tracking that keeps kids,
pets, tossed wedding bouquets and other fast-moving objects in
focus.
Olympus FE-26 Highlights
Always Stay Focused
The new AF Tracking technology locks your subject in focus, and
continuously adjusts focus and brightness whether you or your
subject are moving. This mode can remember the subject if it
moves out of the frame. This enables you to keep fast-moving and
unpredictable subjects like small children in focus for the
perfect . There's even a specially designed AF Tracking "Pet
Mode" for animal lovers.
Express Your Inner Artist with Magic Filters
In-camera Creative Features recently debuted on Olympus E-System
DSLR (digital single lens reflex) cameras. Similar in-camera
Magic Filters have been developed for the new FE cameras. The new
Magic Filters enable the user to enhance and customize images as
they're being captured. This translates into more fun and
flexibility as customization is no longer limited to using
expensive and time-consuming computer software.
The new Magic Filters include:
* Pop Art: Enhance and saturate colors to create vivid,
high-impact pictures that express the joyful, lighthearted
feeling of the Pop Art style of the 1960s
* Pin Hole: Reduce the peripheral brightness of an image as
though it were through a pin hole, connecting the viewer
ly with the subject at the center Intelligent Auto Thinks
For You
Tired of changing the settings on your camera every time you're
shooting something different? The new cameras' Intelligent Auto
Mode automatically identifies what you are shooting (Portrait,
Landscape, Night + Portrait, Macro, Sports) and adjusts settings
to capture the best quality results depending on the situation.
First-time users will enjoy this quick and hassle-free feature,
which does the thinking for them and produces incredible images
like a pro.
In Sunshine or Shadows, Never Miss a Detail
Photographers know that shooting scenes with both highlights and
shadows can be tricky because of the extreme contrast between
dark and bright areas. When using Intelligent Auto on any of the
new FE cameras, Shadow Adjustment Technology is automatically
activated to address this challenge. It adjusts for extreme light
variations and maintains visible detail in both the shadow and
highlight areas of the scene.
Always Find a Face in the Crowd
The new camera's Advanced Face Detection reduces the chance of
blurred subjects in photography by distinguishing between
people's faces and the background. It tracks up to 16 faces
within the image area, even if people are moving, and
automatically focuses and optimizes exposure for sharp, brilliant
portrait pictures (ideal for large family or group photos).
Perfect Fix In-Camera Editing
The FE-26 offers Red-Eye Fix, Lighting Fix, Resizing and
Cropping so photographers can edit images right in the camera
without the need for any editing software.
Versatile Memory
The new FE cameras offer the flexibility to use either
xD-Picture Card or microSD memory cards, which is just one more
advantage of Olympus point-and-shoot cameras.
Easy Operation and Help Guides
The new FE cameras feature enhanced In-Camera Help Guides that
make digital photography simple and fun for users of all ages and
skill levels. In addition to the Help Guide that displays a brief
description of camera settings and features on the LCD, all three
cameras allow consumers to easily adjust ISO and white balance
settings using the Program Auto mode. Additionally, Exposure
Compensation enables users to preview and select various exposure
effects on a live, multi-frame window on the LCD before snapping
the . This smart feature allows users to see precisely what
the image will look like when adjustments are made, ensuring they
are capturing the exact image desired. Program Auto and Exposure
Compensation are great modes that enable novice users to get
results like the pros while learning about the effects of
different photography techniques. Menus are available in 39
languages for convenient operation.

easily download images from the camera or other external device,
such as a USB drive, and automatically organize them into albums,
