OLYMPUS CAMERA

HOME OF THE GODS

The Olympus Camera Company got their name from Mt. Olympus the home of the Greek Gods. They chose this name because the original owners were Japanese and their company was named for the mountain where their gods lived- Mt. Takachiho. They liked the idea that their name would “reflect its strong aspiration to create high-quality, world-famous products.” Powerful Gods=Powerful Cameras.
