Olympus VG-130 Back

“For anyone who wants good quality movies and photos with minimum fuss and expense, Olympus has the perfect compact cameras. The new VG-130 and VG-120 are the ideal all-rounders. With a 5x wide optical zoom, 14 Megapixels and Digital Image Stabilisation, they offer the full array of Olympus high-end optics and clever features – like the instant Movie Rec button – that make it easy to capture the moment anytime, anywhere. A big and bright 3-inch, 230,400-dot LCD and super-slender design make it a pleasure to share shots on the spot with family and friends. The VG-130 offers another unexpected luxury in this price category – it comes with a full-metal body. The VG-130 and VG-120 will be available from mid-January 2011 for €99 and €89 respectively.”

  2. Olympus VG130 – A question rather than a comment. Does the camera come supplied with a charger for the Li-Ion battery, or does it have to be charged from a USB connection?

    Thnks

  4. yes it comes with a mains charger – which has a USB socket built into it. you plug a USB cable from the charger to the camera. i guess it can also be charged from a PC.

  8. Hey donna, I’m hearing the same sound, so I guess it’s normal ? You have had any problems since ?

  14. Just purchase an Olympus D715 and spent 2 hours trying to find out how to charge the battery. My fuji camera has a charger inwhich you insert battery, plug in and charge. This D715 appears to say nits charged through the camera, which is not what I wanted. Help please.

Tell me what you're thinking...
