Olympus announces FE-5020, FE-4000, FE-46 and FE-26


The high-tech and user friendly Olympus FE series is back with four new cameras. These affordable models are sure to be a hit with users who want high image quality regardless of their budget. The latest 12 Megapixel FE cameras boast up to 5x super wide optical zoom for great panorama shots or close-ups of distant subjects.

The three top models look especially striking thanks to a new Double-Layered Crystal Shell finish. In addition, they all offer a new practical AF tracking feature which ensures that moving subjects are in focus at all times. Also on board are Advanced Face Detection Technology and the new i-Auto mode, which automatically identifies five commonly-encountered types of scenes and adjusts settings accordingly.

Two of the latest FEs even offer innovative Magic Filters for a new level of creativity. All these practical features are rounded out by xD-Picture Card and microSD* compatibility. Each new camera is available in a range of attractive colours. The FE-5020, FE-4000 and FE-26 hit stores in August 2009

FE-5020
Leading the FE series is the new FE-5020. Featuring an incredible 5x super wide optical zoom (24-120mm**), it also includes a range of exciting Magic Filters to give pictures a whole new artistic feel. Your latest party will look even more chock full of colour when you apply Pop Art to your shots, for example. The other filters – Fish-Eye, Sketch, and Pin Hole – create a special atmosphere of their own. Meanwhile, framing compositions and reviewing images and video on the 6.9cm/2.7” LCD is also a breeze.

AF tracking, i-Auto mode, and Advanced Face Detection Technology, which can detect up to 16 faces, complete the technical treasure box. With its Double-Layered Crystal Shell finish, the FE-5020 is sure to turn heads. Available in Pure White, Dark Grey, Mocca Brown and Ocean Blue, it is the ideal hybrid of high-tech and user-friendliness.

FE-4000
Tucked away in a pocket or purse, the extra slim 12 Megapixel FE-4000 is always there when you need it. A 4x wide optical zoom (26-105mm**) makes taking group portraits easy. This attractive model offers AF tracking and i-Auto mode for sharp and crisp photos every time.

A range of four Magic Filters is also on hand to give images an extra creative edge. Its vibrant choice of Pure White, Dark Grey, Metal Magenta, Arctic Blue, and Tangerine Orange for the body make it a stylish eye catcher any time you start shooting.

A Double-Layered Crystal Shell finish adds to its chic look. With other great features ranging from Advanced Face Detection Technology to Digital Image Stabilisation, getting great shots and viewing or framing them on its 6.9cm/2.7” LCD is a cinch.

FE-26
With a 12 Megapixel CCD and a 3x optical zoom (36-108mm**), the FE-26 is a trusty companion for any occasion. The generous 6.9cm/2.7” display allows for convenient framing and reviewing every crucial moment.

A number of other functions such as AF tracking and i-Auto come in handy to perfectly capture life on-the-go. Standard AA battery power ensures this model will never leave you out in the dark. Also featuring Digital Image Stabilisation and Advanced Face Detection, the FE-26 comes in charming Flamingo Pink, Cornflower Blue, and Cosmic Black.

To ensure easy operation straight out of the box, the new FE models follow a ‘one button, one function’ design principle. The FE-5020, FE-4000, FE-46, and FE-26 will become available in August 2009.
