This is mainly the responsibility of 10x wide zoom lens, the camera at a focal length from 28 to 280 mm brings. The dimensions while remaining within limits: 96 x 60 x 31 mm. The processing of the mju 9000 is very solid, and the casing makes the impression that it could be something from. The 2.7-inch display makes the controls on the camera back a lot of space is not excessive, and the buttons are rather delicate fingers made. They are illuminated in order to operate in diffuse light conditions easier. With the dial you decide to change the recording mode. The Olympus 9000 employs a contrast-detection auto focus system operating off data streaming from the camera's image sensor, and interestingly the Stylus 9000's face detection function is linked not only to the auto exposure and auto focus systems, but is also used to assist the camera's Shadow Adjustment Technology function. We've seen Olympus Shadow Adjustment function on the company's digital SLRs in the past, and here it helps ensuring that your subjects' faces are captured with appropriate brightness without blowing out the background in backlit scenes. Olympus' face detection function also allows for tracking of a subject's face as it moves around the frame, once detected. The Beauty mode for smooth, beautiful skin - as in new models mju usual - get your own place. If the constant turning of the wheel for the playback mode is too cumbersome.

The macro mode offers two versions: regular and super-macro with a distance from one centimeter. When insects such as bumble bees do not mind, you can them with the mju 9000 is literally on the back fur, and even micro-organisms show full size. The zoom feature can be in the Super Macro mode is not used. For panoramic images, there are three options to choose from. Panorama 1 o'clock-2 o'clock build three identical images in the camera together. The only difference is that in version one the camera when crossing a kind of self-triggering target window, while the one at number two still needs to do itself. Facing a lot of well-established competition the olympus 9000 needs an impressive specification to stand out from the crowd. It features a 12-megapixel sensor, a 10x zoom lens equivalent to 28-280mm, a 2.7-inch wide-view monitor and robust but compact body.
