The 5.1-megapixel Olympus FE-115 is a very affordable digital camera designed for users of any experience level. It features a 2.8x optical zoom lens, Olympus TruePic Turbo image processor and 1.5-inch color LCD display. The FE-115 has a built-in help that explains the purpose of each of the camera's six pre-programmed scene modes.
The FE-115 features an easy-to-use "One Touch" design with individual buttons for shooting, reviewing and deleting images conveniently located on the cameras back with icons so that frequently used functions can be accessed easily. Macro mode, Flash mode and a selftimer are located on the arrow pad for quick use while setting up the perfect composition.
The seven shooting modes are accessed via a rotating dial and makes it easy to capture great images in a variety of lighting situations, such as Landscape, Portrait, and Night Scene. QuickTime Movie mode enables users to create short movies of events that can be emailed to family and friends. The Digital Image Stabilization Mode is for capturing crisp, clear pictures - free from the blur sometimes caused by camera shake or moving subjects.
The TruePic TURBO� image processor significantly enhances image quality and delivers faster overall processing speeds for rapid startup, shutter release and playback. TruePic TURBO� enables the cameras to capture information from every pixel with pixel "micro-smoothing" that delivers clearer and more color-accurate photos, even at lower resolutions.
With the power of PictBridge technology, photos can be printed directly from the camera to any PictBridge-enabled printer, such as the Olympus P-11 Digital Photo Printer, without using a computer. Printing and sharing images has never been easier, and the P-11's photo lab-quality dye-sublimation printing produces archival- quality prints in rich color.
Connecting any FE Series camera to a computer is easy with the USB Auto Connect feature, which connects the camera directly via USB 2.0 cable and requires no software. The included OLYMPUS Master software provides the ultimate in digital imaging management. An intuitive user interface makes downloading to your computer quick and simple, and images are searchable by date or keyword in the Calendar View.
