Phototastic!

Advantages: Easy to use, great picture quality, long-lasting
Disadvantages: No viewer

...early digital cameras. While the Olympus mju Mini has its drawbacks, I still prefer to use it than the old one. ~~~ Appearance ~~~ The camera is pretty small and fits easily into my handbag, or even my jeans' pocket! I think the main point in its favour is its size, since its so much easier to carry around than the brick I used to use. It's not too heavy and it doesn't get in the way. Its shaped is very rounded, which helps when I shoved it in my ...
...about the appearance of the Olympus mju. Mine's a nice, silver colour, but there are other colours available, including black, blue and gold. ~~~ Ease of Use ~~~ I've found this camera to be very easy to use. The power button is labelled "power" in nice, clear letters. The button for taking photos is obvious. There's a little wheel on the top left (again, looking at the camera from the front) which you use to switch between modes: photo, film and ...

Pictures are priceless

Advantages: Sleek, stylish, trendy, small, easy to use.
Disadvantages: Needs a larger memory card! 16mb is not enough!

The Olympus 4.0 megapixel Mini mju digital camera is something to admire. I've have previously owned two other digital cameras and neither of them were quite as impressive. The graphics were terrible, the memory was disappointing and they didn't look to stylish either. So how does it look? =============== The mini mju is small, sleek (95 x 55.5 x 27.5mm) and available in a selection of colours, these are: Jewellery Silver Pure White Cosmic ...
...own the Jewellery Silver mini mju. Not only does the camera look good and feel good, it's also easy to use and only weighs 115g(s). Easy? How easy? ========================= The top of the camera has two buttons and also a wheel switch. The small button turns the camera power on; the larger button takes your photos. To determine if you want to view photos stored on the camera, record some video footage or take some pictures you move the wheel ...

Are you MJU Too?

Advantages: Stylish, Light, Small, Six Colours, Fantastic LCD Screen for Reviewing Pics, Quick Start up
Disadvantages: Focus isn't great sometimes

...popular MJU. As a result, Olympus have had to do some very careful thinking about how to not let the fans down at this festive time of year. The Answer? This sexy piece of kit! Before I get down to all the tech specs, Olympus have quite cleverly made their camera into a fashion accessory too, with the ability to choose from 6 different colours for you new best friend: Pure White Jewellery Silver Cosmic Black Copper Orange Crystal Blue Velvet ...
...clever, clever people over at olympus have managed to shave 5mm off of the length, and 50g of the weight, making this camera a groovy little pocket sized thing weighing in at a mere 115g. This combination of small size and light weight make the camera Ideal for people with an active lifestyle. GENERAL CONTROLS ************************* The mju mini is pretty easy to use, with the standard "click" shutter release button. Close to that is a knurled ...

Robust and Ergonomic

Advantages: Excellent quality of build, easy to use
Disadvantages: Poor Zoom function

When first receiving my Olympus µ[MJU:] Mini DIGITAL camera for my 18th birthday I took it out of the box and was instantly impressed. It immediately looks stylish, compact and with an ergonomic shape. The MJU mini fulfils its purpose excellently - a compact camera with decent image quality which you can take with you, anywhere. Being a student I have taken mine on nights out in my pocket and hardly noticed it is there, it weighs a little more than ...
...I am yet to submit the MJU to the elements to test it's all weather housing but am confident that it will stand the test adequately. The quality of build is excellent and the camera is so robust that despite dropping it countless times it still works superbly and not even the Liquid Crystal Display screen has shown any signs of wear. The camera is incredibly easy to use and fairly straightforward, even when selecting picture quality et cetera. Its ...

Point and shoot

Advantages: SIze, colours, ease of use
Disadvantages: zoom, xd

I got bought this as a gift so i can not say that i went around trying to pick the best camera for me. I've had it for about three months and have got familiar with it and how it works. First thing when you open the box is that you realise that this cool. In black this is a funky little thing (and it is little - comparable size to a deck of cards). Whenever i take it out i always get a positive comment about how it looks. You all the usual gubbins.... ...
...up and your ready to go. The camera is incredibly simple to use with three basic modes. Still pictures, video (at 320 x 240 with sound) and view mode. There is also a quick view button on the back to see what you have just taken at the click of a button which is a useful feature. The camera feels nice in your hands and is barely noticeable in your pocket. Also, it has a surprisingly large (1.8 inch) and bright screen making viewing the pictures ...

Baby Mju

Advantages: small/tidy/easy to use/light/movie & sound
Disadvantages: easy to break/screen doesnt switch off

Hey there... just thought id write a quick review on this camera seen as though i have one! I used to have the orindary mju beforehand - which was very technical full of amazing functions i never used... it was more for the professional photographer! And if you look at my homepage you will see i dont do professional photos - just random ones! So i brought this baby mju - its like a fun version of the mummy mju! Its soo small and compact and does ...
...screen off so it wears the battery down low quite quick! So prepare to take your charger EVERYWHERE your camera goes!! Well its not quite that bad... it would last a day of shooting im sure! I have a 512mb memory card in my camera with images set to 1024x720! This works out brilliant as i get good quality piccies and i can store 2000+ on the card! This camera is good if you want a nice little digital camera with no hassle and easy to use too, you ...

A Fahionable entry level camera

Advantages: Small, Lightweight, Strong, Durable, Optical zoom, Big Screen, Quick start up
Disadvantages: Optical zoom sometimes not enough, Hard to hold steady

This was my third digital camera that I have ever owned and i was very pleased with it, until I decided that I wanted something a bit more advanced. It has a very fast, convincing startup; it makes a noise, the lens cap slides across, the lens somes out and the screen comes on all in the space of about a second. This is very useful if you don't want to miss a shot and you need it on and ready. Being 4 megapixel, it produces amazingly sharp images ...
...The flash can be set to come on automatically, red-eye reduction, full flash or off. The flash loads up suprisingly quick but does not go as far as ordinary flashes due to its size. Sometimes it can only be effective up to 1.2 meters away. Nevertheless, the red-eye reduction does it's job. The screen is a very good size considering the size of the camera in comparison. It is clear and bright indoors and outside in bright sunshine. The menus are ...

Feature packed and stylish for an excellent price!

Advantages: stylish, value
Disadvantages: few

I bought this camera the day before going on my holiday. I didn't have much money, so I bought it very last minute, because of its classy looks, small size, and zoom lens. I may not have researched it very well, but I am glad that I chose the right camera! As if the features mentioned above are not enough, it has many useful features, such as movie mode, the length of movies limited only by the memory card, easily accesible and easy-to-use scene ...
...ESP. It has a 2x zoom lens which slides out of the camera's body in a very stylish way, and the quality is very good. The whole camera is weatherproof, so is completely useable, whatever the weather. The whole camera is very easy to use, and the only point which I could find to criticise it for is the fact that you have to take the batteries out to charge them. This is not a huge problem though as settings are not lost, and if you purchase a spare ...

...displayed as icons ). Olympus also provide a piece of software which you install from CD and can use to download and store the photos on to your computer. The quality of the images is fantastic and it's particularly good at taking close-up shots - the detail and colour intensity is super. On my travels I was taking an average of 35 pictures a day and the battery would last throughout. It takes an hour to recharge so I'd simple do this each night ...
...the science part: The Mju is a compact digital camera with 4 megapixels, 2x optical zoom lens (equivalent to 35-70mm on a 35mm camera). It has an 1.8 inch LCD monitor and is housed in a sleak, weather-proof metal body. You can choose from several eye-catching colours. There are four image quality/size settings available (SHQ, HQ, SQ1, SQ2 which are recorded as JPEG files (other formats not available). It has a 4x digital zoom and offers a standard ...

Disadvantages: no view finder, only 2x optical zoom

A great little camera

Advantages: Stylish and easy to use
Disadvantages: A little expensive compared to other models

I have had this camera for two years and taken it all over the world. It never fails to produce great, high quality shots and is really really even for a technology cretin like me. The best thing about it is the unique shape and the mechanism which makes the lens come out at the push of a button. It also has a large screen on the back which makes viewing your photos after you have taken them easy. This is good incase you need to retake them, which ...
...all the cables you need to upload your photos to your computer and a great manual in several different languages which takes you through things step by step. I think you could get higher quality features for the same amount of money with another brand but this one, with its unique shape and easy to use functions is definitely a winner! ...

Olympus MJU mini 4 megapixel digital camera

Advantages: Compact, Light-weight, robust
Disadvantages: not enough optical zoom

I purchased this camera approximately two years ago. This camera has performed time after time without any hasstle. The menu functions are easily understandable, and navigation through the menu is also quite good. I must recommend adjusting the ISO to a min of 200, or as I discovered auto focus can take some time before the picture is taken. This camera uses a XD format card which is compatable on most generic card readers, BONUS. My only negative ...

Its robust casing ensures your camera remains safe when jettting around with your camera in your hand luggage. ...
