 Point
and shoot ease and full manual controls, the Olympus Camedia C-750 delivers
sharp, crisp 4.0-megapixel images for print enlargements beyond 11 x 14
inches. The C-750 features a more compact body than its predecessor (the
C-730), a new extra-low dispersion (ED) lens, movie mode, a built-in flash,
and compatibility with XD memory cards. It also improves on the new C-740
with more megapixels (4.0 versus the 3.2 of the C-740), a 40x total zoom
(10x optical and 4x digital zoom), addition of a hot shoe for external
flash, an all metal body, and sound recording with movie mode.
Optics and Resolution
The 4.0-megapixel Olympus C-750 digital camera can capture images up to 2288
x 1712 pixels; it can also produce 3200 x 2400 pixel images through
interpolation for extra-large prints. It boasts an outstanding Olympus
aspherical glass 10x zoom lens with 11 lenses in 7 groups. When combined
with the 4x digital zoom, you get a total zoom of 40x. The F2.8-F3.7 lens
has a focal range of 6.3-63mm, or 38–380mm equivalent in 35mm photography.
The ED coating on the lens helps reduce the purple fringing normally seen on
larger zoom cameras.
The C-750 also features Olympus TruePic technology, which optimizes the
image information captured on the CCD before the data is saved by using the
brightness and color information of the neighboring pixels when processing
the pixel data. This leads to digital pictures that set standards for
picture sharpness, contrast, true colors, and gradation.
Storage and Transfer
With the C-750, you can store images on XD memory cards. With the included
16 MB XD card, you can store 16 images at HQ mode (2288 x 1712 pixels).
Images can be downloaded to either a Mac or PC via USB connectivity, which
means it can be connected to any USB-based Windows Me/2000/XP and Mac OS 8.6
or later computer without installing any software.
Movie Mode
In movie mode, the C-750 captures continuous video (with audio) at 15 frames
per second in two formats: 320 x 240 (up to 16 seconds) or 160 x 120 pixels
(up to 30 seconds). The QuickTime Motion JPEG format offers a limited
resolution, which is great for capturing a short movie that can be e-mailed
to friends and family, but is no replacement for a true camcorder.
