Olympus goes deeper, colder and stronger than ever before

Review Verdict: While this sounds terribly impressive, it should be considered in perspective. 10 metres underwater is going beyond snorkelling and into SCUBA diving depths, and I think it's fair to say that the 770 SW, for all its tough-guy credentials, is not really de

Comments:
Not too long ago, we gave you our first impressions of the Olympus Stylus 770SW from a preproduction model provided by the manufacturer.

Review Verdict: The Olympus Stylus 770SW has an impressive set of specs that surpass the older Stylus 720SW. The new camera is just as sturdy with its 5-foot shockproof rating, but it can go deeper into the water to 32.8 feet. It reaches a whole new level of ruggedness b
