<!-- This camera is called the "Olympus Camedia C-700 Ultra Zoom", not "Olympus C-700UZ". -->
The '''Olympus Camedia C-700 Ultra Zoom''' is a [[Digital photography|digital camera]] [[Manufacturing|manufactured]] by [[Olympus Corporation|Olympus]]. It was first released in May 2001 and was manufactured in Korea.
== Features and lens ==
The "Ultra Zoom" in the camera's name refers to its unusually wide 10:1 zoom range, being a significant increase over the more typical 3:1 zoom range of contemporary standard digital cameras.
The lens is an Olympus aspherical glass zoom lens, 5.9&nbsp;mm to 59&nbsp;mm focal length, f/2.8 to f/3.5 aperture, 10 elements in 7 groups. The 10× zoom is equivalent to 38–380&nbsp;mm in 35&nbsp;mm film photography. The working range of the lens is {{Convert|23|in|m}} to infinity in standard mode, {{Convert|4|in|m}} to {{Convert|23|in|m}} in macro mode.
The Camedia C-700 offers 1-2.7× seamless digital zoom. Combined with the optical zoom, the total zoom range is 27:1.
Removable image storage is provided by a 3.3V [[SmartMedia|SmartMedia Card]], in capacities of 8, 16, 32, 64 or 128 megabytes. Non-Olympus memory cards must be formatted in the camera.
The camera is equipped with an Olympus exclusive miniature 4-contact USB jack. The included USB accessory cable<ref>Olympus CB-USB6</ref> plugs into a standard USB-A jack on a computer. A driver is needed to connect to [[Windows 98|Microsoft Windows 98 SE]] for image transfer, but Windows 2000 and later, as well as most [[Linux]] and Apple [[Mac OS X]] systems automatically recognize the camera as an external hard drive.
A standard UNC 1/4-20 tripod thread is provided on the bottom of the camera body. An electronic self-timer is built in, and a flashing red light-emitting diode (LED) on the front of the camera indicates automatic shutter status. An audio beep can be selectively activated or muted to provide shutter feedback to the user.
== Flash ==
The camera has a built-in manual pop-up flash. The flash operates in automatic, red-eye, forced and slow synchronization modes. A 5-pin jack for an external flash cable is provided, but there is no [[hot shoe]] flash connector.
== Still images ==
Still images are stored in lossless, uncompressed [[TIFF]] (.tif) format, or lossy [[JPEG]] (.jpg) format. The camera supports pixel resolutions of 640x480, 1024x768, 1280x960 and 1600x1200.
== Movies ==
Movies can be recorded with sound and the recording time is dependent on the memory card capacity. They are in [[QuickTime]] (.mov) format. There is a built-in microphone on top of the camera, but there is no provision for an external microphone.
== Power sources ==
The camera can use four (4) AA alkaline primary cells, four nickel-cadmium (NiCd) AA rechargeable cells, or four nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) AA rechargeable cells so that, in the end, two 3 V series-connections will supply the device (given that each cell provides approximately 1.5 V). Alternatively, it also takes two LB-01 (CR-V3) lithium cells. It is provided with a jack for an external AC power adapter, supplying 5.0 to 6.5 volts DC (6.0 volts nominal) to the camera.
