Olympus C-5500 Sport Zoom Review at DCResource
DCResource have posted their review of the new 5 megapixel Olympus C-5500 Sport Zoom digital camera (called the C-55 Sports Zoom in the rest of the world).
” The Olympus C-5500 Sport Zoom is a good camera with a silly name. When I think of what a “sport zoom”, I think of something stylish and responsive. The C-5500 is clunky and sluggish at most tasks. But it does have a bang for the buck—remember that this thing costs just over $300. The C-5500SZ is a fairly bulky camera made mostly of plastic. It feels sturdy, though, especially considering its price. There are a few design annoyances, such as a pop-up flash that takes up valuable finger space and a flimsy plastic door over the xD memory card slot. The C-5500 has an AF-assist lamp and it focuses well in low light. Speaking of which, low light visibility on the larger-than-average 2.0” LCD display is good as well. “
