Olympus µ[mju:]-III 80[]
Known as the Olympus Stylus Epic 80 DLX in the US, this was the final 35mm compact camera from the very successful mju/Stylus/Epic series, and was introduced by Olympus in 2004. Unlike earlier models, it was not sold in Japan. It was generally gold in colour, but there may have been design differences in some territories. Some "DELUXE" examples of the mju III 80 included a remote control.
