Manufacturer's Description

The Olympus SP-810UZ: Powerful and compact wide-angle ultra zoom
gets so close it’s almost indecent
-----------------------------------------------------------------
For photographers who need to get up close from afar, Olympus
continues its celebration of a decade of SP series cameras with
the SP-810UZ. This powerful contender offers a stunning 36x ultra
wide optical zoom with a focal range the 35mm equivalent of
24-864mm, plus a bright f/2.9 maximum aperture to make it a truly
versatile all-in-one option.
In fact the successor to the popular SP-800UZ is now the most
powerful model in Olympus’ Traveller category – no compact camera
from Olympus has ever delivered better zoom performance – as well
as, incredibly, it being the most compact with dimensions of a
mere 105.9x75.9x73.5mm and 413g weight (including battery and
media card)

36x ultra-wide optical zoom
---------------------------
The competitively priced Olympus SP-810UZ is the smallest camera
currently on the market with a zoom factor over 30x, which makes
it the perfect companion for that late summer vacation or autumn
city break.
The fast wide 1:2.9-5.7 24-864mm zoom lens combines with Dual
Image Stabilisation and enhanced ISO sensitivity to guarantee
stunningly sharp photography and help reduce blur for both stills
and videos.
Never miss a thanks to AF Tracking
---------------------------------------
The Olympus SP810UZ is not only superb for candid portrait and
street photography; it’s also an aid to sports photography and
action s, thanks to the integration of AF-Tracking
functionality.
This feature maintains focus on your subject even if they move
about, or in or out of, your frame. So you will be able to record
all the glory of that beach volleyball match.
Creative freedom via 3D and Panorama shooting
---------------------------------------------
The usability of the Olympus SP-810 is further enhanced by
optional 3D shooting mode, lending images a striking sense of
depth, from close up macro s to expansive landscapes. This
mode captures two s from two different angles to create s
that can be viewed on a 3D compatible display.
An in-camera Panorama mode further allows for images with drama
and beauty combined, providing another creative highlight. Three
frames are and automatically combined by the camera.
There is also the ability to achieve beautiful background defocus
thanks to the camera’s fast aperture and wide precision lens.
Even amateurs will be able to recreate DSLR-like background
blurring to help their subjects stand out and create images with
more impact for the viewer.

10 Magic Filters for turning the everyday into the extraordinary
----------------------------------------------------------------
Specifically designed to expand the creative potential of digital
photography, this impressive function of the SP-810UZ utilises
in-camera image processing technology to effortlessly transform
the everyday into extraordinary scenes. Simple to operate, the
filters allow users to create entirely new worlds with their
images. From vibrant colours and pencil drawings to mysterious or
rounded perspectives, artistic spirits can magically turn ideas
into reality. What’s more, most of the filters can be used when
video as well as shooting stills – a first in the
SP-810UZ’s product category.
Users can choose from Punk, Pop Art, Pin Hole, Drawing, Fish Eye,
Soft Focus, Sparkle and Watercolour plus two new additions in
Miniature and Reflection.
* Miniature: This new photos-only mode lends your photos the
appearance of a miniature model with stronger colours and
contrast by narrowing the depth of field.
* Reflection: A simulation of a magical horizontal reflection of
your subject; for example as if it or they were standing next to
perfectly still water.
* Punk: Pose like Sid and Nancy and have your world turned dayglo
pink, with this fun feature that transforms your photos into
crudely photocopied fanzine style images, but in a good way.
* Pop Art: In the tradition of Andy Warhol, this effect enhances
colours, making them stronger and more vivid. It creates
high-impact pictures that express the happy, light-hearted
feeling of the pop art style.
* Fish-Eye: With its distorted 180-degree perspective, this
filter reproduces the dramatic effect of a fish-eye lens. It
lends a new perspective to the whole scene with a “round” effect.
* Drawing: This filter gives the impression that subjects have
been sketched on the fly by an artist just at the moment that
inspiration struck. Images are transformed into line drawings for
improvised, creative results.
* Pin Hole: For an ethereal feel, Pin Hole reduces the peripheral
brightness of images like an image seen through a pinhole. Added
to this is a unique colour tone that results in a style that has
an air of secrecy or portrays the feeling of being lost in
another dimension or space.
* Soft Focus: Give your portraits that romantic otherworldly look
beloved of wedding photographers.
* Sparkle: A photos-only Magic Filter that truly imparts a
sprinkling of fairy dust, adding twinkling reflections to shiny
objects.
* Watercolour: With this option pictures are transformed into a
watercolour painting framed by soft light.
Eye-Fi card compatible
----------------------
Connectivity is also enhanced by the SP-810UZ being compatible
with Eye-Fi media cards, enabling automatic wireless downloading
of pictures, straight to your desktop, and facilitating photo
sharing.
Instant Movie Rec button & HD playback
------------------------------------------
Just one press of the red button and users of the Olympus
SP-810UZ can be instantly 720p High Definition MPEG-4
video clips, no matter which shooting mode has previously been
selected. So what chance of missing that special moment? No
chance!
Plus, to admire HD images at their best, users of the SP-810UZ
can hook the camera up directly to their flat panel TV set via
provided HDMI output port.
Mechanical Image Stabilisation
Click here for a larger image ( https://images-eu.ssl-images-.com/images/G/02/uk-electronics/shops/olympus/2011/SP-810UZ_Blur.jpg )
Mechanical Image Stabilisation
------------------------------
A bugbear of bigger zoom cameras is the propensity for camera
shake at longer focal lengths, when shooting handheld or in lower
lighting conditions. Olympus therefore offers arguably the most
effective means of reducing the potentially damaging effects of
image blur, via mechanical image stabilisation.
As a further help, expansive light sensitivity settings between
ISO80-3200 are also manually selectable. Alternatively, turn on
the built-in flash.
Pixel rich picture quality
--------------------------
The Olympus SP-810UZ doesn’t just deliver the goods on paper. In
practice, with a 14 megapixel top photo resolution, TruePic III+
image processor, and 720p High Definition video , the
manufacturer’s trademark pixel rich image quality is very much in
evidence – even when pictures are viewed on a large screen
television via HDMI output.
Big and bright LCD screen
-------------------------
The Olympus SP-810UZ offers a large 3-inch, 230,000 dot
resolution LCD screen for framing and reviewing your photos. This
means that sharing s on the spot with holidaying family and
friends is not only a possibility but also a real pleasure.
Automatic for the people
------------------------
Thanks to automatic aids like subject-following AF Tracking,
Intelligent Auto Mode (i-Auto), 26 Scene Modes (including
Fireworks and Sunset), Beauty Mode, Advanced Face Detection, Pet
Detection, and Shadow Adjustment Technology to ensure perfect
focus and exposure for any given subject, plus high capacity SDHC
and SDXC media card compatibility so you never run out of storage
space, pack a SP-810UZ in that travel bag and you’re all set for
photo excellence.
In-camera help and features you can trust to deliver
----------------------------------------------------
The SP-810UZ features an in-camera manual so that even the least
experienced family members can rapidly get to grips with the best
of what the camera has to offer.
