Olympus Press Release

Hamburg, 25 January 2007 – Price, performance and ease of use go hand-in-hand with the slim and smoothly-curved Olympus FE-210. 7.1 Megapixels and a 3x zoom lens ensure that this affordable camera delivers excellent shooting performance and lets pictures be viewed on a large 6.4cm LCD. The image quality is leagues ahead of devices such as mobile phones – so you are sure to preserve your precious memories perfectly and can even print them out in large formats if you wish.

With its 7.1 Megapixels, the FE-210 boasts ample imaging power. No matter if you’re viewing photos on-screen, getting prints in postcard format for your albums or in poster size for your walls, the photos come out a treat every time. The 3x zoom lens, meanwhile, grants users the flexibility needed to capture outstanding shots even when shooting from afar. The results can be checked and easily shown around to groups of friends on the big 6.4cm LCD.

Incorporating a “one button, one function” design principle and featuring 25 languages on board, the FE-210 is ready for use straight out of the box – no matter where you come from. 15 scene modes offer the optimal pre-defined settings for many common shooting situations like Indoor, Fireworks, and Self Portrait. A handy movie function is also included to let users record the magic of movement.

To meet memory needs, the camera has an xD-Picture Card slot in addition to its internal memory. And for easy editing and archiving of the pictures on a computer, the camera comes with the Olympus Master software.

The FE-210 will hit stores in February 2007.
