Creativity lies in the palm of your hand
With 8.0 million pixels the Olympus SP-350 is
an enthusiast’s dream. Four exposure modes hand the
photographer the freedom to experiment whilst a
precision 3x zoom lens (equivalent to 38-114mm on a 35mm
camera), ensures that crisp and razor-sharp images are
produced each and every time.
Featuring a range of focusing options from regular
iESP autofocus to spot and multi-spot AF this model can
be focussed manually. In addition a histogram function
is available, both in playback mode and in real-time
whilst framing, to enable exposure distribution to be
checked on the extra-large 6.4cm LCD.
For those looking to extend the camera’s capabilities
even further, a whole host of accessories are available
including lens converters, an underwater case and flash
units that simply clip onto the camera’s hotshoe mount.
More experienced photographers know it is essential
to have the freedom to adjust exposure parameters
individually. The SP-350 enables full manual control, in
addition to automatic shooting options, and whether
using Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority or the Full
Manual mode, the results are only limited by the
photographer’s imagination. All results can be recorded
in both JPEG and RAW formats.
A range of optional accessories gives the SP-350 a
further edge on its competitors. Photographers can
greatly extend the cameras capabilities with the
WCON-07F lens converter for wide 27mm shots or the
TCON-17F for 193mm tele views (35mm camera equivalent /
usage requires CLA-4 adapter). An underwater case is
also available and external flash units, such as the
Olympus FL-20, can be added to the SP-350 via its
hotshoe.
The Olympus SP-350is ultra-compact and lightweight
yet has a robust feel to it and fits snugly in the hand.
Perfect for the experienced photographer who needs a
compact model in their kitbag both models come with an
Olympus CR-V3 battery pack that lasts for more than 500
shots*. Both are PictBridge compatible and downloading
images to a PC or printer couldn’t be simpler using the
USB Hi-Speed AutoConnect provided.
