Olympus Announces All-Weather Stylus Verve S

Melville, New York, February 17, 2005 ? With the announcement of the new 5.0-megapixel Stylus Verve S, Olympus adds more choices to its line-up of sleek, ultra-compact digital cameras in the Stylus Verve series. The new Stylus Verve S packs 5 million pixels of image resolution into its compact, durable, all-weather designer body, along with new features such as a calendar, album function and a histogram for enhanced usability.

The Stylus Verve S combines a 5.0-megapixel CCD image sensor with Olympus? exclusive image processor, TruePic TURBO?, which significantly enhances image quality and delivers faster overall processing speeds for rapid startup, shutter release and playback. TruePic TURBO uses pixel "micro-smoothing" to deliver clearer, more color-accurate photos, even at lower resolutions. And with a fast startup of less than one second and nearly instant shutter release time, you?re always ready to take great pictures.
