| Olympus Mju 1040 Digital Camera Review |
| Friday, 12 September 2008 |
 Lets just say, that at $299 what should you expect in a digital camera? Especially one that carries a well known brand? Will it be stylish? Will it have many features? Will it have a big LCD screen? Will the images be any good? All the usual questions could be asked and most people would not expect the whole suite – but somehow Olympus has pretty much crammed a large portion of these features into the new Olympus Mju 1040. So the answer is… yes, yes and well, yes again... |

| Olympus E-3 Digital Camera Review |
| Monday, 30 June 2008 |
 There’s no point denying the stronghold that Nikon and Canon currently have over the high-end enthusiast and professional digital SLR market, but that’s not to say it will stay that way forever - especially when Olympus can produce a competitive unit with all the appropriate stylings and functions expected of a semi/professional DSLR: introducing the Olympus E-3. Upon initial handling it is obvious that... |

| Olympus Tough 1030SW Digital Camera Review |

| Olympus SP-500UZ Digital Camera Review |
| Saturday, 16 September 2006 |

 The new Olympus SP-500UZ is a small and feature filled ‘pro-sumer’ 6 mega-pixel digital camera. The camera is light weight but sturdy and still has a good balance and feel in the photographers hands. Although the camera is compact, it still has room for a 2.5 inch LCD screen, an electronic viewfinder and space for a series function buttons and dial – with more functions!

| Olympus MJU 700 Digital Camera Review |
| Thursday, 14 September 2006 |
 Out of the box the camera looks different to most on the market with its odd shaped yet groovy design, with the right hand (while holding) side being thicker than the left. However this does not feel in any way awkward to hold and sits quite snugly in the photographer’s hand. The size is great as it will go anywhere and tuck nicely away in your shirt pocket – easily going unnoticed. And when its time to shoot, one handed... |

| Olympus E-330 Digital Camera Review |
| Monday, 04 September 2006 |

 With so many cameras containing the same or similar functions these days it was interesting to review a camera with something new, that no other DSLR has yet… Live View. This function has long been available on compact digital and I’m surprised this feature had not been added to any DSLR before, but Olympus are the first and can now take home the world first prize. The E-330 out of the box looks great and feels good in your hands. It has a bit of weight to it without being heavy and has all of the main feature buttons...

 On first contact with this camera you instantly know that the very stylish 720 SW is a strong camera made for more than just carrying around in a handbag and keeping in cotton wool. The stylish metal casing, which surrounds the entire body, can withstand a drop from 5 feet with its inbuilt shock protection. Furthermore, if your watching your kids at a sporting event, drop the camera in mud you can simply hose the mud off. That’s right – it is totally waterproof without the need for...
