Welcome back
to ComputerTV. |
| 00:00:10 |
00:00:12 |
I'm Sam and today I'm going to
tell you about this new Olympus. |
| 00:00:12 |
00:00:15 |
This is the FE-45. Now
if you're in the market |
| 00:00:15 |
00:00:18 |
for a new digital camera, don't
want to spend too much money |
| 00:00:18 |
00:00:20 |
but you want all
the basics and more |
| 00:00:20 |
00:00:22 |
this is definitely a great
digital camera for you. |
| 00:00:22 |
00:00:24 |
Now it is a point and
shoot camera, |
| 00:00:24 |
00:00:25 |
it's perfect
for beginners |
| 00:00:26 |
00:00:28 |
and it's really really
easy to use. |
| 00:00:28 |
00:00:30 |
Alright so let's take
a look around it, |
| 00:00:30 |
00:00:33 |
right here we're going to power
it on with the power button. |
| 00:00:33 |
00:00:35 |
Alright and you'll
see right here |
| 00:00:36 |
00:00:39 |
you have your 3x optical zoom,
your 4x digital zoom. |
| 00:00:39 |
00:00:42 |
Now this is
a 10 megapixel camera. |
| 00:00:42 |
00:00:44 |
And when I turn
it to the side, |
| 00:00:44 |
00:00:46 |
I'm going to go
in and out, |
| 00:00:46 |
00:00:48 |
you'll see the zoom.
It's nothing too crazy, |
| 00:00:48 |
00:00:52 |
you're not going to get
professional looking images |
| 00:00:52 |
00:00:55 |
with this thing but it will
definitely do the job. |
| 00:00:55 |
00:00:58 |
When I turn it over you'll see
you have a 2.5 inch LCD screen. |
| 00:00:59 |
00:01:01 |
Nice images, look there I am,
hi, I'm here. |
| 00:01:01 |
00:01:05 |
Now you have ISO
capabilities until 1600, |
| 00:01:05 |
00:01:08 |
you also have 16
different shooting modes, |
| 00:01:08 |
00:01:12 |
including movie mode. You have
19 megs of internal storage, |
| 00:01:12 |
00:01:18 |
but you can also get one
of those xD or microSD cards, |
| 00:01:18 |
00:01:20 |
and you can have
all the images you need |
| 00:01:20 |
00:01:22 |
saved on your
digital camera. |
| 00:01:22 |
00:01:24 |
Now what's cool about this
is that in playback mode |
| 00:01:25 |
00:01:26 |
you have instant editing,
so you can resize, |
| 00:01:27 |
00:01:29 |
you can do a slide show,
also has red eye reduction, |
| 00:01:30 |
00:01:32 |
all that without
plugging into a PC. |
| 00:01:32 |
00:01:35 |
Has digital image
stabilization, |
| 00:01:35 |
00:01:37 |
so if you're somewhere rocky
you don't have to worry |
| 00:01:37 |
00:01:38 |
about getting
blurry images, |
| 00:01:39 |
00:01:40 |
the camera will do a lot
of the work for you. |
| 00:01:41 |
00:01:44 |
You also have face detection,
which is great for those pictures |
| 00:01:44 |
00:01:46 |
that you like to take when you
like stretch out your arm |
| 00:01:46 |
00:01:47 |
like so and
you're like errr. |
| 00:01:48 |
00:01:50 |
Face detection definitely
comes in handy for those. |
| 00:01:50 |
00:01:53 |
And this camera takes
two AA batteries |
| 00:01:54 |
00:01:56 |
so no rechargeable
batteries here, two AAs. |
| 00:01:57 |
00:02:01 |
Alright so, as I was going
around with this 360 tour of mine |
| 00:02:01 |
00:02:04 |
you'll see right here
this is the shutter release. |
| 00:02:04 |
00:02:06 |
This is how you
take a picture. |
| 00:02:06 |
00:02:10 |
Alright on the back you see
again your 2.5 inch LCD screen. |
| 00:02:10 |
00:02:13 |
You have your wide and your
tight right here for your zoom. |
| 00:02:13 |
00:02:15 |
You have your
display button, |
| 00:02:15 |
00:02:18 |
so if you don't want any of
those fancy numbers on there, |
| 00:02:19 |
00:02:21 |
and also you have your grid
for your composition. |
| 00:02:21 |
00:02:25 |
Ok so right here you have
your mode selector |
| 00:02:25 |
00:02:28 |
to go from manual
to program, scene selection, |
| 00:02:28 |
00:02:30 |
your playback button, and
around the square you have |
| 00:02:31 |
00:02:33 |
some dedicated buttons for
your flash, your exposure, |
| 00:02:33 |
00:02:35 |
your macro mode and
your self-timer |
| 00:02:36 |
00:02:38 |
so you can set up pretty little
shots of you and the fam. |
| 00:02:38 |
00:02:41 |
And then right here
you have your trash button, |
| 00:02:41 |
00:02:45 |
and your menu button.
Then on the back you'll see |
| 00:02:45 |
00:02:47 |
to hook up to a tripod
you've got here |
| 00:02:47 |
00:02:50 |
this little, what do
you call this? |
| 00:02:50 |
00:02:53 |
Tripod holder.
And then here, |
| 00:02:53 |
00:02:55 |
this is where your
rechargeable batteries goes |
| 00:02:55 |
00:02:59 |
as well as your xD
or your microSD card. |
| 00:02:59 |
00:03:02 |
And on the side right here
this is your USB port, |
| 00:03:02 |
00:03:03 |
your mini-USB
port actually, |
| 00:03:04 |
00:03:05 |
this is how you hook
up to a PC. |
| 00:03:05 |
00:03:09 |
You can upload all your
videos to Youtube, Facebook, |
| 00:03:09 |
00:03:11 |
just get everything
off your camera |
| 00:03:11 |
00:03:13 |
and share it
on the web. |
| 00:03:13 |
00:03:16 |
Alright so I'm sure you guys
are getting antsy over there, |
| 00:03:16 |
00:03:18 |
you really want to take
a look inside this camera, |
| 00:03:19 |
00:03:21 |
see all the things it can do,
so let's get started. |
| 00:03:22 |
00:03:24 |
Alright so right now
we are in program mode, |
| 00:03:24 |
00:03:26 |
also known as
manual mode, |
| 00:03:26 |
00:03:28 |
and when you're in
program mode |
| 00:03:28 |
00:03:32 |
and you hit menu, you'll see it
takes you to your camera menu. |
| 00:03:32 |
00:03:35 |
Now when you click OK
on the camera icon |
| 00:03:35 |
00:03:36 |
you'll see you
have some options, |
| 00:03:37 |
00:03:40 |
white balance, ISO, remember
you have capabilities up to 1600 |
| 00:03:41 |
00:03:42 |
so if you're shooting
in really low light |
| 00:03:42 |
00:03:45 |
your image should still
come out pretty decent. |
| 00:03:45 |
00:03:49 |
You also have panorama, now
this has panorama abilities |
| 00:03:49 |
00:03:51 |
for 10 different images
and what it does |
| 00:03:51 |
00:03:54 |
is it takes these images,
kind of pastes them together |
| 00:03:54 |
00:03:58 |
until you have a panoramic
view of wherever you are. |
| 00:03:58 |
00:04:00 |
You have face detection,
we're going to take, |
| 00:04:00 |
00:04:02 |
we're going to set
face detection on. |
| 00:04:02 |
00:04:05 |
Face detection really
comes in handy sometimes. |
| 00:04:05 |
00:04:07 |
Ok, so we're
all done here, |
| 00:04:08 |
00:04:09 |
we're going to get
out of here |
| 00:04:10 |
00:04:11 |
and I'm going to take
a picture of myself right now |
| 00:04:11 |
00:04:13 |
so you can see
the face detection. |
| 00:04:13 |
00:04:15 |
See that green box,
that's face detection. |
| 00:04:15 |
00:04:18 |
It makes sure that
all the images are in the shot |
| 00:04:18 |
00:04:22 |
and that they're not blurry,
everything's you know, |
| 00:04:22 |
00:04:25 |
it gets exposed correctly.
All right, here we go. |
| 00:04:28 |
00:04:34 |
Ok, not bad. Now let's go and
show you another mode now, |
| 00:04:34 |
00:04:36 |
now that you've seen
program/manual mode |
| 00:04:36 |
00:04:38 |
and you do that by again
hitting your mode button. |
| 00:04:38 |
00:04:42 |
IAuto mode, now let's say you
don't want to do any work, |
| 00:04:42 |
00:04:43 |
you want the camera
to do everything for you, |
| 00:04:43 |
00:04:46 |
find out what scene is best,
this is iAuto mode |
| 00:04:47 |
00:04:50 |
and it's fantastic
if you're a beginner. |
| 00:04:50 |
00:04:52 |
Ok let's get out of here,
vibration reduction. |
| 00:04:53 |
00:04:55 |
Now this is a
digital image stabilization, |
| 00:04:56 |
00:04:59 |
I'm telling you if you are
on a boat, somewhere rocky, |
| 00:04:59 |
00:05:00 |
taking pictures
of moving objects, |
| 00:05:01 |
00:05:02 |
this is really really
going to come in handy, |
| 00:05:03 |
00:05:05 |
it's going to make sure that
your shots don't come out blurry. |
| 00:05:06 |
00:05:08 |
Alright we're going
to go to another mode. |
| 00:05:08 |
00:05:11 |
Scene mode, ok. So here
you have 16 different options, |
| 00:05:11 |
00:05:14 |
we're go through them.
You have potrait, landscape, |
| 00:05:14 |
00:05:17 |
night, night and portrait.
Ooh, look at that combo. |
| 00:05:18 |
00:05:22 |
Sport, indoor,
candle, self-portrait, |
| 00:05:22 |
00:05:27 |
got a bunch on here, documents,
back up to portrait again. |
| 00:05:27 |
00:05:30 |
Ok let's get out of here, so
that's scene selection mode |
| 00:05:30 |
00:05:33 |
and like I said it makes
sure that your images |
| 00:05:33 |
00:05:35 |
are going to
come out perfect, |
| 00:05:35 |
00:05:38 |
you know crystal clear, everything
you know is going to be right |
| 00:05:38 |
00:05:40 |
as far as the
setting goes. |
| 00:05:40 |
00:05:43 |
Alright so again here is
your movie mode. |
| 00:05:43 |
00:05:44 |
Now when you're
in movie mode |
| 00:05:44 |
00:05:46 |
you have a couple
of different options |
| 00:05:46 |
00:05:50 |
for sizing, and if you click
on the menu button right here |
| 00:05:51 |
00:05:53 |
and you scroll up
to image quality, |
| 00:05:53 |
00:05:58 |
you'll see you can choose
beteen VGA and QVGA. |
| 00:05:58 |
00:06:01 |
Now VGA has a
640 by 480 resolution |
| 00:06:02 |
00:06:05 |
and QVGA has
320 by 240 resolution. |
| 00:06:05 |
00:06:08 |
Now this is great if you're
planning on uploading it |
| 00:06:08 |
00:06:11 |
to the web, you don't want
your movies to be too big. |
| 00:06:11 |
00:06:15 |
And then in frame rate
you have 30 fps or 15. |
| 00:06:16 |
00:06:19 |
Alright, now let's get
back out of here. |
| 00:06:19 |
00:06:23 |
This is movie mode again and
to change modes back to P |
| 00:06:24 |
00:06:27 |
you just click your
mode, your moods, |
| 00:06:27 |
00:06:30 |
ha your mood, your
mode selector right here. |
| 00:06:30 |
00:06:33 |
Ok so now once
you're in playback |
| 00:06:34 |
00:06:36 |
you just click this
blue playback button, |
| 00:06:36 |
00:06:39 |
you can see all of your images,
you can sort through them all, |
| 00:06:40 |
00:06:42 |
look at these,
ok here we go. |
| 00:06:42 |
00:06:44 |
And if you click menu
brings you back up |
| 00:06:44 |
00:06:49 |
to your menu selections,
and if you go into edit here, |
| 00:06:49 |
00:06:53 |
this is where you can resize and
you can crop your image as well. |
| 00:06:54 |
00:06:57 |
So once you, you know,
crop your image, |
| 00:06:57 |
00:06:58 |
cut off an arm
here and there, |
| 00:06:58 |
00:07:03 |
cut off you know, some hair
you can just click menu |
| 00:07:03 |
00:07:06 |
and you're back to
where you started. Ok. |
| 00:07:07 |
00:07:09 |
And if, when you're
also in playback mode, |
| 00:07:09 |
00:07:14 |
if you hit menu and
you move to your left, |
| 00:07:14 |
00:07:15 |
excuse me, here is
your slideshow. |
| 00:07:16 |
00:07:17 |
And this is great
if you're showing, |
| 00:07:17 |
00:07:18 |
if you've just
gone on a trip |
| 00:07:18 |
00:07:20 |
and you want to
show off all your pictures |
| 00:07:20 |
00:07:22 |
but you don't want to sit there
like going through each one, |
| 00:07:22 |
00:07:24 |
slideshow really really
comes in handy. |
| 00:07:25 |
00:07:27 |
Ok I think we're
all done here, |
| 00:07:27 |
00:07:30 |
you pretty much have
seen the 360 view |
| 00:07:30 |
00:07:32 |
of this new
Olympus FE-45. |
| 00:07:33 |
00:07:35 |
Again great camera
for beginners |
| 00:07:35 |
00:07:37 |
so get yourself
a pair of AAs, |
| 00:07:37 |
00:07:40 |
