Olympus SP-500UZ Digital Camera
June 6, 2008
The Olympus SP-500UZ 6 MP Digital Camera offers you a galaxy of 6.0 million pixels that ably backs the 10 x optical zoom lens for conceiving quality images from a distance. The outcome is often than not, a high definition image. The SP-500UZ is at its best in vacations packed with action or in capturing sporting events.
Capture at Point Blank
The dynamic 10 x optical zoom of the model that emulates a 35 mm camera facilitates effective closer capturing of distant object images. A specialist may augment this by adding greater zoom power, engaging an optional tele - converter ( TCON-17). The wide-angle capacities of the device also lie subject to enhancement with a 27 mm view providing WCON - 07. The most impressive part here is the Super Macro option, meant for realizing extreme close - ups as near as 3 cm from the camera.
Assuring support creativity
An array of focusing specialities, ranging from an auto focus option (iESP) and a multi-spot choice to manual focus forms the control core of the camera. The C-7070 Wide Zoom, an EISA award-winning concept of the Olympus think tank, ably supports this aspect by locating a moving object at untold precision allowing the timely shutter closure. The fast action domains like sports and wild life photography obviously demands for such potent concepts. The storage part of the camera is also remarkable with an in - built memory of 10 MB, expandable with xD picture cards. And the Olympus SP-500UZ Digital Camera’s speed and picture quality is enhanced to the optimum by an efficient processor (TruePic TURBO image).
Other key factors here are
- An AF Lock to lock the focus on a desired object
- The Oracle AF function that lets the camera set focus on objects that move towards or away from the shooter
- Option for customising personal preferences as My Mode
- A trash button on the rear of the model to erase pictures on the LCD screen
- A phenomenon like the rising sun or blooming flower can be conceived here using the Timelapse mode
- An option of 9 transitions to playback the captured images on the monitor
