Olympus Stylus 770 SW: You Too Can Drop, Freeze, Soak, Step On This Camera


There’s not too much to say about the Olympus Stylus 770 SW. Well, except for the fact that it can survive 5-foot drops, be taken down 33 feet underwater, withstand 220 pounds of pressure and still operate down to 14 degrees Fahrenheit — hence the block of ice. There’s also a new manometer built in letting you gauge your altitude or depth. It’s otherwise a normal 7.1-megapixel pocket camera with a 3X optical zoom priced at $380.



Oooo, shiny. The 770 SW is available in silver, bronze and blue.

It’s a pretty small camera despite being so rugged.

The 2.5-inch HyperCrystal LCD is of course designed for use outdoors in direct sunlight.
