Olympus SP-550 Ultra Zoom Review

DPReview have just reviewed the new Olympus SP-550 Ultra Zoom digital camera - it features a massive 18x optical zoom lens - equivalent to 28mm - 504mm in 35mm terms! The camera features an anti-shake CCD sensor image stabilisation system, 7 megapixel sensor, RAW support and a 2.5" screen. The camera is available from Amazon UK for £289.

"The SP-550UZ is the first serious attempt by Olympus to take back some ground in the super zoom sector, a sector it almost single-handedly created back in 2000 with the legendary C-2100UZ, but has since struggled to make a mark in. The SP-550UZ is a significant step up from the previous models in the 'SP' range (including the current SP-510UZ), offering 7MP resolution, image stabilization (CCD-shift) and an astounding 28-500mm (equiv.) 18x optical zoom range."
