Olympus FE-130 review
Reviews If you want a simple camera, look no further than Olympus's FE-series point-and-shoot models. Olympus includes a movie mode, but it can capture only 15fps QuickTime clips at 320x240 resolution. For example, the Olympus FE-130 is a 5-megapixel...

Olympus mju 1200 review
Reviews If you're looking for classy styling, look no further than the Olympus mju 1200. Olympus still haven't got the memo that xD cards aren't as handy as the near-ubiquitous SD and SDHC cards. Fujifilm is supporting both memory formats in their newer...

Olympus SP-320 review
Reviews With Olympus's 7-megapixel models, the SP-320 and the SP-310, the company caters to the casual photographer who wants a camera with more manual options than are offered by entry-level point-and-shoot models.

Olympus mju 830 review
Reviews The Olympus mju 830 is an update to the 780, and changes very little in the spec sheet. Rugged compacts seem to be Olympus' new favourite thing with the success of the mju 790, and now the 830. Still, manufacturers love their proprietary technology...

Olympus FE-170 review
Reviews On paper, the Olympus FE-170 is almost identical to its brother, the FE-180. While both are automated, the FE-180 uses Olympus's TruePic Turbo image processor. Because of its terrible performance and mediocre shots, the Olympus FE-170 really isn't...

Olympus SP-510 UZ review
Reviews We remember a time when Olympus was well known for its well-featured superzoom cameras. Like most Olympus cameras, the SP-510 UZ records images to xD picture cards. To Olympus's credit, the lens is fast -- its maximum aperture spans f/2.8 to f/3.7...

Olympus Stylus mju 780 review
Reviews The Olympus Stylus mju 780 is a fairly nondescript digital compact camera with a couple of nice touches that help to alleviate the fog of anonymity. As well as the usual paltry internal memory, the mju 780 supports xD memory cards.xD cards are only...

Olympus E-420 review
Reviews It's Olympus' entry-level dSLR, slotting in just below the E-520, and tested here with the usual 14-42mm kit lens. The body's smaller than even the Nikon D60's, and the 14-42mm kit lens on the Olympus is way shorter than the rest.

Olympus FE-120 review
Reviews Although it lacks gor-blimey features and manual controls, the Olympus FE-120 offers budget-minded snapshot photographers decent image quality and a street price that qualifies as a genuine bargain for a 6-megapixel camera.

Olympus FE-180 review
Reviews Olympus has several 6-megapixel FE-series cameras, and they're all nearly identical. Thankfully, Olympus's 6-megapixel FE-180 is a rare example of a camera with a well-built automatic system. Olympus FE-180

Olympus SP-550 UZ review
Reviews We're less inclined to let Olympus off on the other specious marketing claims they associate with this camera, such as the supposed 15 frame per second burst rate and ISO 5000 sensitivity. Olympus is pushing that boundary, however, with its new 7.1...
