The µ 1030 SW is shockproof to 2m****, waterproof to 10m***, freezeproof to -10°C and also crushproof to an astounding 100kg**! No other camera is this tough. Even its metal exterior is scratchproof. Available in a choice of Platinum Silver, Midnight Black and British Green, the µ 1030 SW is always ready for action.

This model’s 3.6x wide optical zoom (equiv. to 28-102mm) uses an inner-folded optical path to protect the lens during high action shooting. A 10.1 Megapixel sensor delivers detailed images, while an extra large 2.7”/6.9cm HyperCrystal II LCD provides a wide viewing angle and a bright view - even in direct sunlight. Integrated Digital Image Stabilisation counters the effect of blur caused by shakes.

Face Detection Technology ensures human subjects are optimally exposed and in focus. Meanwhile, Shadow Adjustment Technology all but eradicates the problem of shadowy images. And significantly improving low light performance is BrightCapture Technology. Furthermore, integration of the TurePic III image processing engine enhances performance in terms of speed, colour reproduction and noise suppression to return more realistic images.

Operation is intuitive and with menus available in 38 languages the µ 1030 SW is almost certain to speak your language. For shooting underwater beyond this camera’s native limit of 10m, the PT-043 underwater case is also available optionally which extends the maximum depth to 40m.
