Olympus mju 1010 review

Reviews Olympus has always kept its mju series of cameras sleek and skinny -- no mean feat when consumers demand ever bigger lenses and higher resolutions. StrengthsWith a pedigree in slimline snappers that stretches back to 35mm film, Olympus knows how to...

Olympus FE-200 review

Reviews The Olympus FE-200, however, proves otherwise. Curiously, the FE-200 lacks the TruePic Turbo image processor found in Olympus' less expensive models, the FE-180 and FE-190. PerformanceWhile Olympus positions the FE-200 as the flagship of its FE...

Olympus FE-190 review

Reviews With a small frame and a smaller price tag, the Olympus FE-190 hopes to attract the fashionably frugal. It doesn't have the stylish curves of Olympus' Stylus or Canon's PowerShot SD cameras, but it's still fairly attractive.

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 u [mju:] 1000 review

Reviews You can't have everything, especially with Olympus compact cameras. The Olympus µ 1000 follows that trend -- it features a 10-megapixel sensor, but it isn't waterproof, its LCD screen is only 64mm (2.5 inches) and its meagre 3x, 35-to-105mm...

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 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-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 u [mju:] 730 review

Reviews This minimalist control set is similar to the options found on Olympus' budget FE series of cameras. Aside from Simple Mode, the µ 730 doesn't differ very much from the other members of Olympus' µ family of point-and-shoot cameras.
