Review: Having just been to Spain on holiday, and realising I had forgotton to pack my existing compact camera (Tevion 3mp) and not wanting to trek round Barcelona with my Fuji S5500 (big and obvious) decided to treat myself. and wow! what a treat. The Olympus mju760 is my first Olympus and I have to say for a compact it is packed with features. It's batism of fire was on a off road jeep safari into the mountains above Reus, driving in dry riverbeds and the like. It was bone shattering and dusty, but using the dual IS function not one of the 40+photos were blurred or had any signs of camera shake. The scene settings also allowed me to take photos at a lake and see the fish swimming without glare from the high sun reflection. I am definately sold on Olympus and the 700 series. The software and trial Muvee Theatre package is very good and easy to use and mine came complete with a 512mb XD M card and a very nice Victorio & Lucchino designer case.
Pros: Scene settings are good and cover wide range of possibilities.

Dual IS setting is fantastic.

Style and feel is of high quality and good workmanship.

Ease of use.
Cons: 3 optical zoom is a little dissapointing.
