Olympus 500

[Mark Cowgill]

Hi everyone

Does anyone know if the new Olympus mju 500 digital camera has the same housing as the old one,it seems to have been upgraded and I need to know if it is the same Camera housing.
My old camera is broke and I have to buy a new one to fit my existing housing

Regards Mark.

Mark,

I can't find the mju 500 on the Olympus website, nor on the digideep (http://www.digideep.com/english/) website. Then again the digideep website doesn't show the housing for the Olympus e520, which I happen to know exists.

As a general rule you would usually be hard pressed to find a newer P&S camera that will fit into an older housing.
