Olympus Stylus 600 Review

The Olympus Stylus 600 receives a Dave’s Pick recommendation in this latest review of the Stylus 600.

The Olympus Stylus 600 features advanced performance and enhanced usability with the new Bright Capture Technology for improved low light photography and the inclusion of a premium size 2.5-inch LCD, as well as 26 snapping modes for versatility, a built-in Help Guide for on-the-fly instruction, and a 6.0-megapixel image sensor for high-resolution large format prints. The Stylus 600 delivers power, performance with an array of innovative technologies: Bright Capture Technology for low-light photography; a HyperCrystal™ LCD for high-contrast viewing; metal, all-weather construction for protection against the elements; manual exposure and aperture settings for creative control and versatility; as well as an 6.0-megapixel image sensor for stunningly high-resolution prints.

The Imaging Resource posted their Olympus Stylus 600 Review. They conclude-

“As the latest in that company’s “Stylus” line of compact digital cameras, the 6-Mp, 3x-zoom Olympus Stylus 600 Digital is to my mind one of the best Stylus Digital models to date. Its body design is trim and compact, with a button-based interface simpler than that found on earlier models. It offers the same water resistance that makes the rest of the Stylus line so practical for go-anywhere photography, and sports a big, beautiful 2.5-inch LCD monitor to view your photos on. While the LCD on the Stylus 600 does much better than average in bright sunlight, and offers a wider than average viewing angle, I do wish that Olympus had kept an optical viewfinder for low light snapping. That quibble aside, the Olympus Stylus 600 is a very capable, highly portable point & snap camera, with good image quality, a better than average lens, and a unique help system that won’t leave you stranded. Its point & snap simplicity and 24 preset Scene modes make it easy for even novice users to bring home great-looking photos. Another Dave’s Pick for Olympus!”
