 Olympus Imaging Australia has today announced the launch of the SZ-14 ultra-zoom featuring a 24x zoom lens with 25-600mm range. The SZ-14 is the perfect compact travel camera with a lens that will cover nearly all photographic scenes from the very wide to the very far.
With 14 megapixels and a wealth of premium features, the highlight of this new camera is its special ultra-zoom lens that utilises Olympus’ cutting-edge dual-sided aspherical and ED lens technology to provide a sensational 25-600mm zoom range in an impressively compact lens. In the Super Macro setting, this lens focuses as close as 3cm. Equipped with a large 3-inch LCD screen with 460,000 dots, it has 16 convenient Scene Modes, and its creative options include 11 Magic Filter effects that can be applied in both still photography and HD movie recording.
With its incredible 24x ultra-zoom wide-angle lens, this is the perfect choice for photographers who need an affordable camera with a lens that they can use to photograph virtually any subject. Easily capture very wide vista landscapes to stage performances, nature and wildlife, or sport action, that are far away. With rapid 10 shots per second capability, HD movie recording in HD, large 3-inch LCD screen with 460K dots, all in a stylish metal body, the SZ-14 is a lot of camera for the money.
