Olympus Stylus 1040 is thinnest Olympus camera to dateBy Sindre Lia, Monday 25 August 2008
Recent Olympus compact cameras haven't exactly been thick, but the Olympus Stylus 1040 will soon give Sony and Casio competition in the "thin as a card" club.

Olympus today debuts the Olympus Stylus 1040, the thinnest Stylus camera of all time. Available in black and silver, the camera is aimed at style conscious users. Compare it to other extremely thin cameras here.

The 10-megapixel Olympus Stylus 1040 features Intelligent Auto Mode, which automatically identifies what is in the camera's sight and adjusts settings to capture the best shots depending on the situation (Portrait, Landscape, Night + Portrait, Macro, Sports).

A range of other features include in-camera panorama, which stitches together three shots, as well as smile detection and face detection (up to 16 faces). The Olympus Stylus 1040 also offers Shadow Adjustment Technology, Perfect Shot Preview, and a new TruePic III image processor; just like the new Olympus SP-565 UZ and Olympus Stylus 1050 SW.

The Olympus Stylus 1040 is equipped with a large 2.7-inch HyperCrystal LCD screen, and images are saved to either xD-Picture or microSD memory cards. Scheduled to be released in October 2008, the Olympus Stylus 1040 will be selling for approximately $200.
