Designed-to-be-Digital Optics - 4x Wide-Angle Optical Zoom Lens, 16x Total Seamless Zoom

Olympus photos are known worldwide for sharp, vibrant image quality. This is achieved through a number of key technologies, such as Olympus' high-refractive-index aspherical lens elements, designed specifically for digital cameras. The FE-350 features a precision-crafted, wide-angle zoom lens that's ideal for shooting indoors, broad landscapes and family portraits. Equivalent to a 28-112mm lens in 35mm photography, the FE-350's lens features 7 lenses in 6 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses. The 4x optical zoom combines with a 4x digital zoom to deliver a total 16x zoom, so virtually no photo opportunity is out of reach.

Digital Image Stabilization Mode

PThe FE-350 offers Digital Image Stabilization (DIS) 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.

Face Detection Auto Focus and Auto Exposure

Face Detection Technology tracks faces within the frame and automatically focuses (Face Detection AF) and optimizes exposure (Face Detection AE) for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures. Even if your subjects are moving, the camera continuously tracks your subjects' faces without having to press the shutter button.

Extra Large 3.0" Color LCD

The FE-350 features an extra large 3-inch LCD screen. Composing shots and sharing images with friends and family is easier than ever thanks to this large, high-resolution LCD. Additionally, the backlight boost button increases the LCD from bright to a super-bright setting, making it easier to capture and view images in challenging environments such as direct sunlight or low-light situations.

8.0 Megapixel CCD (Effective)

The 8-megapixel CCD image sensor inside the FE-350 delivers high-quality images that are consistently sharp and vivid even in large-format prints - up to poster sizes as large as 16 x 20 inches.

17 Selectable Pre-Set Shooting Modes Make It Easy to Capture Great Images

Getting the best shot has never been easier! Preset shooting modes optimize the camera's settings for any shooting situation to ensure you capture a great shot. Select Scene Modes such as Portrait, Sunset, Landscape, Night Scene, Sports, Beach & Snow and more.

Perfect Shot Preview

The FE-350 features a Perfect Shot Preview mode that enables users to view and select various photography effects on the multi-view screen before even snapping the shot. The feature allows users to see precisely what the image will look like when adjustments are made, ensuring users are capturing the exact image they want. It's an ideal way for novice users to learn about the effects of different photography techniques, such as exposure compensation, white balance and metering.

Perfect Fix In-Camera Editing

Life does not always go according to plan. Olympus helps by providing technology which enables users to edit images in-camera after the photos have been captured. The FE-350 offers Red-Eye Fix and Lighting Fix.

Program Auto Exposure

In some situations, photrographers may want more creative control when composing images. The FE-350 camera offers Program Auto Mode. Located on the camera's mode dial, this option enables users to easily adjust ISO and white balance.

Built-in Help Guide for Easy Operation

The enhanced Help Guide on the FE-350 camera incorporates: a built-in manual that explains all of the terminology of specific functions; a reference that explains the pre-programmed 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.

VGA-Quality AVI Movies

The FE-350 captures movies at a high resolution (640 x 480), providing quality movies at 15 frames per second.

My Favorites

Always keep your favorite memories with you! This in-camera album allows you to store up to nine of your favorite images to share with friends and family anytime -- using a minimal amount of memory.

Easy Direct Print Capability

The power of PictBridge technology enables photos to be printed directly from the camera to any PictBridge-enabled printer, such as the Olympus P-11 Digital Photo Printer, without using a computer. And the new one-touch printing button makes printing a single-step process. Printing and sharing images has never been easier!

Auto-Connect USB 2.0 High Speed

Transferring images to the computer has never been easier with the Auto-Connect USB 2.0 that does not require software drivers (for most computers/operating systems) for hassle-free and high-speed image downloads.

Built-in Multi-Mode Flash

The FE-350 camera has a built-in flash that offers settings to provide a wide range of options:

• Auto Flash fires automatically in low light or back-light, to help ensure the illumination is appropriate.
• Red-Eye Reduction Flash Mode emits a series of pre-flashes right before the shutter snaps, allowing the subject's eyes to adjust to the light level of the flash -- reducing the red-eye effect.
• Fill-In Flash Mode (forced on) adds light to eliminate shadows, for a more natural look in photos when your subject is in both bright light and dark shadow.
• Flash Off Mode (built-in or external) is available when flash photography is not permitted or to allow for long exposures for shots like sunsets and night scenes.

Panorama Mode

Up to 10 frames automatically stitchable with Olympus Master software when using Olympus brand xD-Picture Card.

20.5MB Available Built-in Internal Memory

You can capture images even when no media card is in the camera.

xD-Picture Card™ Compatibility

Olympus and Fujifilm jointly developed the xD-Picture Card, a new type of memory media with an ultra-compact design about the size of a postage stamp, image storage capacity of up to 8 gigabytes, compatibility with different digital camera brands, and prices that are comparable to current SmartMedia™ cards. The name of the new xD-Picture Card was inspired by the words "eXtreme digital" to signify the excellence of this new memory media for recording, storing, and transporting audio-visual information.

Camera users concerned with compatibility of digital media between different brands of digital cameras will appreciate the xD-Picture Card's versatility. With a CompactFlash adapter the xD-Picture Card can be used with any CompactFlash compatible device for even more possibilities. A USB Reader/Writer provides easy computer connectivity, and a PCMCIA PC Card adapter for laptops and other devices ensures the easy downloading of data.

Although similar in some ways to all flash media, xD-Picture Cards are designed for increased durability and reliability despite their size. The small size of the card allows the design of even smaller, more stylish and powerful digital cameras.
