New Launch - Olympus µ [mju:] 700

Olympus has launched the µ [mju:] 700 in India. Though sadly if you goto the Olyumpus website, and select Asia, there is no country India in it. Olympus cameras have been sold for quite sometime in India, and ever since the age of Digital Cameras, these guys have managed to slim and shrink their digital cameras beyond belief. The µ [mju:] 700 does the same by giving you a slim camera with a 7.1 megapixel resolution and a great all weather design, i.e it is waterproof, but not that you could take it inside the pool. It has a 3x Optical zoom and has a 2.5" LCD monitor, and all for a cool package price of Rs. 16,995. This seems to be a great deal. I will wait till I can get one to test to give you the real review. I like the fact that this comes in Black, Orange and Blue other than the usual boring silver that all digital cameras come in these days.
