Olympus Stylus 1050SW Digital Camera First Impressions Review
Comments:
The Olympus Stylus 1050SW lives for moderate danger; it is water, shock and freezeproof, so it can stand up to the rigors of a trip to the beach or an adventure in the snowy wastelands. And we found the camera to be easy to use, with the new tap control (
Review Verdict: If you are the sort of person who likes to visit moderately dangerous places, the Stylus 1050SW is worth considering. It is water, shock and freezeproof, so it should stand up to shallow water, drops and chilly weather. But the 1030SW may be a better pick
