Olympus Mju
The Olympus Mju (marketed as Stylus in North America) is a series of 35mm compact film cameras introduced by Olympus in the early 1990s. The line spans the original fixed-lens Mju with its clamshell cover through a large family of zoom variants, positioned as premium pocketable point-and-shoots for everyday 35mm photography.
At recent UK auction, hammer prices for Olympus Mju cameras have ranged from about £25 to £260, with a median close to £50 — figures that reflect wholesale saleroom levels rather than retail. As of today in 2026, the bulk of results cluster in the £30–£70 band for common zoom variants, while clean original Mju (Stylus) bodies and desirable Zoom Wide or Panorama versions are what push the upper end and explain why individual examples occasionally sell for well over £180.

Frequently asked questions
What is an Olympus Mju worth today?
Most Olympus Mju cameras sell for between £30 and £70 at UK auction, with a median hammer price around £50; scarcer or particularly clean examples have fetched up to about £260.
How much does an Olympus Mju Zoom sell for at auction?
Standard Mju Zoom variants typically hammer in the £30–£60 range in the UK auction market, though verified sales show that specific, sought-after versions have reached £188 and higher.
Why do some Olympus Mju prices seem much higher than others?
Price depends on the specific variant and condition: the original fixed-lens Mju and wide-angle or Panorama zoom versions command a premium over common long-zoom models, and a fully working, cosmetically clean body is worth multiples of a scuffed or faulty one.
Is the Olympus Stylus the same camera as the Mju?
Yes — Stylus is the North American name for the same series sold as Mju in the UK, Europe and Japan, so UK buyers will see both names used interchangeably in listings.
