Customer Rating:      Summary: Great rugged camera Comment: Bought the camera a couple of weeks ago as a replacement for a previous rugged olympus camera that was stolen from my wife during a trip to London. Very impressed with the upgrade. All seems good so far, although I haven't tested it in the water yet. Higher resolution, bigger screen, better controls than the one I had and now with the ability to use micro SD cards. I bought a 6GB san disk card for less than the XD and it allows me to standardise on the SD standard for all my cameras, which is great. Thing I love most about the camera is the fact that (other than diving) you just can take it anywhere without worrying about rain or a few knocks. The previous one I used whilst kayaking all the time and it used to just sit in the front of my bouyancy aid taking the knocks and the swims. The only negative thing I would have to say is the annoying fact that olympus insists on disabiling some of the camera function (panorama only I think) unless you use the official olympus XD card as a way of making a few more quid out of people, but you can take the photos on the camera and stitch them on they computer instead so no big loss. Overall a great camera that you don't have to think twice about taking with you.

Adventure is yours for the taking with the µ 1030 SW from Olympus! This camera is waterproof, shockproof, freezeproof and crushproof, and goes everywhere you do! It?s designed for use in even the most extreme conditions, because it?s waterproof to 10 metres and supports loads of up to 100 kg. It withstands falls of up to 2 metres, and resists temperatures as low as -10°C! The µ 1030 SW is also equipped with a 10.1-megapixel sensor and a 3.6x wide-angle optical zoom, meaning your photos will turn out perfectly each and every time. Its digital image stabiliser compensates for blur, while its BrightCapture technology improves the conditions for low light shooting. The 2.7? Hyper Crystal II LCD screen on the µ 1030 SW means you can monitor your creations in full sunlight and at awkward angles. The µ 1030 SW?s other features include a host of scene modes and a face detection function, which are perfect for those of you taking your first steps in the world of digital photography.
