Olympus SP-550 UZ Review at PopPhoto

PopPhoto have reviewed the new Olympus SP-550 UZ. This is the first digital camera to offer an 18x optical zoom lens, equivalent to 28-504mm.

“Noise is handled well at ISO 50 with a Very Low rating of 1.4. At ISO 100, it scores a Low rating at 1.9. At ISO 200, it climbs to 2.5, Moderate rating, and then hops just over into an Unacceptable rating at ISO 400, with a 3.1. At ISO 800 and 1600, blur filtering kicks in, and gets the noise back down to Moderate at ISO 800 (2.7) and Moderately Low at 1600 (2.2).”
