Comments:
The 8-megapixel Olympus mju 850SW is a solid super-tough camera, which is waterproofed to 3m, freezeproofed for those extra cold conditions and rugged enough to withstand the impact if you accidently drop it. Its images are warmly coloured, while exposure

Review Verdict: For anyone into outdoor activities, most cameras stop working just when things get interesting. The 850SW is tough enough for all but the most demanding skiers, bikers and snorkelers, and -- despite sluggish ease of use -- produces bright, involving photo

The shock and waterproof Olympus Stylus 850 SW was introduced in January of 2008 as part of the company's big winter announcement that included no fewer than nine new consumer cameras. The 850 SW appears to be the successor of last summer's Stylus 790 SW.

Comments:
Image quality is pretty good, with very natural yet lively colour rendition in Standard mode

Review Verdict: It handled life in the freezer equally easily, living up to Olympus's 'freezeproof' claims. In the pool, however, things proved a little more tricky. Metering was a rather hit and miss affair and best results were only obtained very close up using flash
