Photography is an art, true, but there has been no art without technique and some science. It’s rather a pity that people see each as an anti-thesis to the other. One needs to invest thought and understanding of the subject of photography before being able to photograph what they may call beautiful. The Olympus SP-590 UZ seems to endorse this very thought, combining in it the science of digital photography and the art of simple analogue. This Prosumer camera comes with a resolution of 12mp and a zoom range of a whopping 26x.
Design and FunctioningProsumer camera must be easier to operate as compared to professional cameras, and thus lighter in weight too. Living up to this rule or truism is the Olympus SP-590 UZ, which comes in a rather tough body, even though it weighs less than 450gms. This camera comes with a zoom range of 26x, which has a 35mm equivalent of 26mm to 676 mm. Thus one can infer that this camera offers a really impressive telephoto range. It responds to ISO ratings ranging from 64 to 6400 for low lighting conditions. Other notable features include Advanced Face Detection, Shadow Adjustment technology and Dual Image Stabilization mode. It comes with internal memory of 22MB and is compatible with SD/SDHC cards.
