Best In Its Class! Like a Fine Film Rangefinder, Only Digital!

The Olympus SP-350 is for the professional in you. It is a small camera with an eight megapixel sensor.
One would never know by looking at the exterior of the camera when it is in your hands that you are holding a mighty power.

The designers and engineers must have collaborated in many a meeting to come up with this wonderfully designed camera.

The camera has an optical viewfinder that a professional would not be without. And you also have a LCD display where you can put on the histogram by toggling it in the menu. You can also toggle the macro capability and the camera has a Super Macro from camera to subject of about two centimeters.

The sensor diagonal on this camera is almost 9mm. that is one of the largest sensors you will find on a small 'point and shoot'. You can use this camera as a point and shoot or you can dial select Manual, Shutter, Aperture or Program mode. Olympus didn't forget the professional photographer when designing this model.

All the photos taken with the camera are in color but you have the option to turn them into Black and White in the post processing mode in the menu.

The camera exterior on the model I have is metal with a black matte finish that reflects fine workmanship.

When I take a trip to Chicago's Loop, I will take this camera with me because it is unobtrusive. You can easily capture real life professional candid photos with its 3X zoom range. Remember it is the photographer and not the camera that composes.

There are many more features that this camera has in the menu. Too many to list here.

When I bought this camera, somewhere in the text of the description I could hear the old wise man when he wrote, "That's all you need".

I highly recommend this camera if you are a serious person that wants the right tool, the right camera to get the candid photos you aim for.

An Oldie but a Goodie

This camera was introduced over 10 years ago, but I have yet to find a more usable pocketable digital camera with all of the features that I, as a semi-pro photographer, desire. The most important features to me are 8 megapixel image sensor, eye level viewfinder, external flash hot shoe, AA battery power, full manual control of exposure all other camera functions as well as an automatic setting, and numerous other features that provide the means to provide excellent images under challenging visual conditions.Read full review...

Great Camera

Nice camera with nice image quality. The performance is very slow but with patience the results are worth it. Very nice film like images. Great option if you are into that retro look in your images.

Great Camera to be an older model...

Great Camera to be an older model...Takes great pictures and has many different features..Size and weight is average but its actually big compared to the newer models.I would recommend this camera to people if they are looking for an older model for good price that takes good pictures. If you have the money go ahead and get a newer model this camera is good but dont think I would choose over a newer model..Read full review...

Pocketable camera at a bargain price

I wanted a camera I could put in my pocket and one that was not as incredibly slow as the Nikon Coolpix I own. The SP350 filled the bill at a bargain price on auction. The pictures are tack sharp and beautiful although white balance is an issue. The downside is that the memory card is hard to find expensive. The camera did not include a cable which had to buy. Battery life also seems short.Read full review...

This little camera is the workhorse for my company. They're easy to use, only take two AA batteries, have a viewfinder, and durable.
