Long-range photography is becoming increasingly popular these days, and the Olympus SP-550UZ is there to answer the call. This 7.1 megapixel camera has an amazing 18x optical zoom lens (28-504mm equivalent) that is perfect for group and landscape shots at the wide end, and sports and wildlife on the long end. The Olympus SP-550UZ also features a dual image stabilization system that combines sensor-shift technology with high ISO and shutter settings, minimizing blur, even when fully zoomed in. A bright 2.5-inch LCD screen rounds out this versatile camera. Less

Some impressive things, and some disappointments

byshimmertje Mar 10, 2007
19 Helpfuls 20 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Small size, good battery life, good shots can be really clear
Cons Focusing problems, steeper learning curve than competing brands, xD cards are slow
Recommended it? Yes

The specifications of the Olympus SP-550UZ wowed me from day one. I mean, 18x optical zoom? Compact? ISO 5000? And a relatively low price to boot? What's not to like?

Variously, very little, and a lot. The Olympus SP-550UZ is my third Olympus camera, so I consider myself reasonably... Read full review »

Pros Non-expensive, great zoom range, and beautiful pictures.
Cons Has a bigger width then most of the newer cameras.
Recommended it? Yes

The COOLPIX L24 captures pictures that keep memories alive. I've had this camera for over a year now and it still is in perfect condition. Usually when buying an over-expensive camera, one would think when dropped it wouldn't break, but they usually do. This camera has never broken and it's fallen... Read full review »
