Olympus Stylus 710 Hands-On Preview

Olympus Stylus 710DigitalCameraReview looks at the Stylus 710 from Olympus and so far they seem to like it, though its hard to tell from their short preview of the camera.

The Olympus Stylus 710 is a 7.1 megapixel camera with a 3x optical zoom. On the back side it sports a 2.5 inch LCD. It also carries with it some nice weatherproof features of the Stylus line.

The camera is very slim and compact, making it very pocketable. If you typically shoot one-handed, I would definitely recommend putting the included lanyard around your wrist for safety. (This doesn’t sport the shockproofness of the Olympus Stylus 720SW). The build quality is top notch - the camera feels solid. You will notice the weather proofing when trying to open the battery compartment and very snug access door to the USB jack. Rubber O-rings help keep the water out.

The controls are easy to use. A mode dial sets the “top-level” mode and a cluster of 4 buttons plus a 5 way directional provides access to the camera functions a settings.
