Super Macro with newly announced Olympus D-4100ZOOM
Posted 02 September 2002 - 08:16 PM
It has a 3X zoom lens with 2.8 aperture, a 4.0 Megapixel camera, and the selling point for underwater photography is the Super Macro function which allows photography as close as 2 centimeters.
You will be able to use this camera with the PT-010 housing.

Whats difference with the C-4000? The specs you show are identical to the 4000.
The supermacro function on the 4000 turns off the flash because the flash is obscured by the lens at 2cm. If so, you cannot use slave flash.

Is this true? Seems to me that if it is it would make the 4000 a non starter. What am I missing?

Basically its a useless function underwater unless you have the tetra housing and can use a hardwired flash. That does work in supermacro mode.
That doesn't make the camera a non-starter. You have a 4 Mpixel C-3020 for $450.00. Not bad.
