Digital Cameras > Olympus Digital Cameras > 8 Megapixels

Advantages: Range of colours; durable; SD card compatibility
Disadvantages: tiny integrated memory; lense in the top left so bigger hands might compromise pictures

I first saw this product in the advert with the cute kid, trying his hardest to destroy the camera, even using the camera as a dog toy! I thought this is perfect for me as I do a lot of hiking and canoeing and I have a graveyard of digital cameras that have broken on my trips! Ok, to the actual product now, being a student with no fixed income, I initially thought the cost was a little on the highside. Then as in the past when you get a gadget that ...
...supposed to do is compromised. However with the Olympus, this compromise does not occur, durablity and quality are assured and this justifies the cost. For you people who love your bright colours this camera comes in a wide range of colours, from yellow to blue or pink. There are a few disadvantages, firstly the integrated memory is tiny, so you need to get an SD card, i'd choose the 2gb card as it means you can shoot more videos without worrying ... Read review

Advantages: compact, light, good features, reasonably priced
Disadvantages: colours can appear dull, especially in low light conditions

...to the review of the Olympus SP-560 UZ, let me give this advice to anyone considering treating themselves this Christmas: buy a compact, as the fixed lens does not allow particles of dust to get onto the CCD, unlike with SLR, a very costly problem! So, there I went, in search of a potential replacement for my DSLR; the first camera I checked out was the: Olympus SP-560 UZ; a 'bridge' camera (just under a pro category) with a wealth of extremely performing ...
...27-486 mm standard 35 mm) allows you to give free rein to your imagination. The image stabiliser helps avoid blurry images, caused by movement when taking a picture, a common problem when using a powerful zoom. The face detection technology gives an added security when taking portraits, plus the Shadow Adjustment technology which helps you avoid those annoying dark areas in your pictures. The 2.5" LCD screen at the back is big enough to allow you ... Read review

Advantages: A dinky camera, packed with features.
Disadvantages: Some compromises, but that comes with the price.

I was lucky enough to try one of these things out when a friend of ours bought it as a Christmas present for his wife. He showed it to me so I could make sure it was all working and I took the liberty of looking it up on the web and trying out all its features. I found out that it was really quite a nice little camera, and I wanted it so much it was tempting to slip her my old Olympus, she'd never know... The first and most striking thing about ...
...lovely on such a small camera. It's high resolution and 2.5 inches across give you a really clear example of what the photo will look like on a screen or print. Another thing I've mentioned already is size. This 8 mega-pixel camera falls in with the ultra-slims at 0.65 inches thick and only a little bit bigger than a credit card. Such a small camera seems to be preferred nowadays because it can fit almost anywhere. Glove compartment, pocket, back, ... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic quality and loads of features!
Disadvantages: Weird name and for the same price you can get better!

Olympus used the shockproof and waterproof design as the key selling tool for the µ[mju:] 820 and was built to provide the consumer with fantastic picture quality in a durable yet compact form. Through the HyperCrystal LCD screen shots are rendered perfectly clear whilst the face detection and focusing system helps even the most clueless photographer capture what really matters in a photograph. Complexity is added for those more experienced by allowing ...
...the Shadow Adjustment function. ISO sensitivity (long story short this is a piece of technology which allows better image quality in poor lighting without using the flash) helps automatically correct blur caused by movement of the camera or subject matter and is quite obviously an extremely useful bit of support when trying to take pictures or film hyperactive children! In regards to my personal experience I recently won one of these little beauties ... Read review
