Comments:
If I were to pay over $300.00 for this camera, I would be satisfied. Buying it on line with a $50.00 rebate for a net cost of about $200.00, makes it the digital camera deal of the decade. Pictures are sharp. Colors are rich. The features are more number

Pros: Highly featured, excellent photos, hot shoe is nice plus

Comments:
Hot on the heels of the Canon PowerShot S80, the Olympus SP-350 is breaking into the high-end compact market.

Review Verdict: It doesn't have the performance or picture quality to be the compact semi-pro model that it pretends to be, and it does have a few significant flaws, but nonetheless the Olympus SP-350 is a decent camera, with very good build quality and handling, excelle

For 2005 Olympus has announced a new SP-series of digital cameras, the 7.0-megapixel SP-310 and the 8.0-megapixel SP-350 introduce specialized features that enable photographers of all skill levels to express their creative vision. Both cameras feature a

Review Verdict: Bottom line - the Olympus SP-350 was a mixed bag. We loved its ergonomics, image quality, and versatile exposure modes, but the slower than average shooting performance and poor battery life forces us to ask you to consider other models. While we can't pr

Digital Cameras - Olympus SP-350 Digital Camera Review, Information, Specifications

Comments:
The 8.0-megapixel, 3x-zoom Olympus SP-350 is an excellent performer where it counts: printed image quality. It has a wealth of features in a surprisingly compact body; and though it's not the most attractive design you'll start to like it right away when

Review Verdict: When you first see the product shots of the Olympus SP-350, it's not impressive. Its big grip on the right really looks silly, especially in the front shot. Holding and using the camera, however, gives a very different impression

QuickTake:

Pros: Full range of exposure modes from full manual to 24 scene modes, Very compact size and light weight, Very simple user interface, Fun to use, Hot shoe allows use of external flash for more power and better lighting with bounce shots, Innovative Help system

Olympus SP-350

Comments:
The SP-350 ($399) is one of three models in Olympus' new SP-series of digital cameras. The SP-350, along with its lower cost sibling, the SP-310, is a compact camera with a 3X optical zoom lens, 2.5" LCD display, full manual controls, VGA movie mode, and

Review Verdict: The SP-350 uses two AA or one CR-V3 battery. They include a lithium CR-V3 battery in the box, which will end up in your trash after a few hours of shooting. Thus, I recommend picking up a set or two of NiMH rechargeables (2300 mAh or better) and a fast ch

REVIEW - OLYMPUS SP-350 digital camera

Comments:
The Olympus SP-350 is an 8 megapixel compact camera with a 3X optical zoom (38-114mm film equivalent). Olympus designate the SP-350 as an "enthusiast" camera because it has some features not found on most compacts at this price external flash shoe, option

Review Verdict: The Olympus SP-350 is up against some stiff competition from Canon and Sony in this price range. The Olympus is a capable camera and feels more like a traditional camera than the opposition. The Sony is also an 8mp camera while the Canon has a 6mp sensor

QuickTake:

Pros: The SP-350 has exceptionally good auto white balance. Photos taken under a tricky mix of incandescent and halogen spots were just about perfect.
Cons: Olympus do not provide either a printed manual or a battery charger. The manual is on disc and the owner will have to supply the rechargeable batteries and charger. There is no memory card with the camera, only the 32mb of internal memory. All of which me

Review Verdict: I really like the Olympus SP-350. It is literally packed with features. The price makes it possible to buy an advanced digital camera for a low price. It has one big drawback though and that is shutter lag.

Comments:
The 8-megapixel Olympus SP-350 is inexpensive ($325 as of August 25, 2006) for an advanced camera, yet it offers top-notch image quality. Its tiny, closely packed buttons, however, make the SP-350 most suitable for users who want the option of working wit
