Olympus FE-5040 prices and specs
The Olympus FE-5040 was released on Aug 18, 2010.
The Olympus FE-5040 belongs to the category of ultracompact cameras. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera is equipped with different automatic modes but you won't get pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Olympus FE-5040 can take images at 12 megapixels max resolution. But for better picture quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the FE-5040 will shoot images with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the FE-5040 has portable size. And if you want to produce images of the best quality check Leica SL (Typ 601).
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which is rather good for making action images of a satisfactory quality. The Olympus FE-5040 can even shoot videos but the max resolution is not very good - 640 x 480 (30 fps).
The lens is built into the Olympus FE-5040 and you won't be able to change it. The lens provides 4x optical zoom.
