SP-600 Ultra Zoom
Want more zoom from your digital compact camera? The new SP-600UZ is the camera for you.
Offering high-powered super-telephoto capabilities that can capture large, up-close images of even the most distant subjects. Boasting focal lengths ranging from 28mm wide-angle to 420mm telephoto respectively, the new SP-600UZ can create high-impact pictures by capturing details that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
The super-telephoto 15x optical zoom on the SP-600UZ can also create high impact zoom images that are assured by Olympus' advanced Dual Shakeproof CCD-shift image stabilisation function and high-sensitivity settings. Working to prevent picture blur due to camera shake and subject motion commonly associated with telephoto or super-telephoto shooting, the latest additions to the SP range offer an easy-to-use "all-in-one" camera solution that makes it possible anyone to enjoy the pleasure of advanced photography.

Combined with HD movie capability (MPEG-4 AVC / H.264), the SP-600UZ offers extended HDTV (1280 x 720 pixels) movie recording thanks to advanced MPEG-4 AVC / H.264 movie compression format.  Compatible with the SD memory card, brilliant HD movies featuring natural, high-definition images can be recorded any time at the click of a button.

This model retains the ‘background defocusing' mode that was first brought to market in 2009. A technique usually available only with SLR cameras, background defocusing makes the main subject stand out - offering a sophisticated new way for compact camera users to create more expressive, dynamic photographs.  

A Dual Shakeproof CCD-shift image stabilisation mechanism with digital SLR heritage

If you're out and about and you don't want to carry a bulky tripod, you might end up with blurry pictures when shooting at high levels of zoom.  The SP-600UZ prevents this with a Dual Shakeproof CCD-shift image stabilisation mechanism and high-sensitivity image capture. An inbuilt gyro sensor detects the range of movement of the camera caused by an unsteady hand, and triggers the internal actuators that use sophisticated algorithms developed originally for the state-of-the-art E-Series to shift the CCD to compensate for the path of movement. The result is crystal clear shots, without the need to set up a tripod.

NEW [ib] software

Olympus has developed a powerful new software solution called [ib] to seamlessly connect images (pictures and movies) and people to provide innovative photo surfing capabilities that will turn your camera into a mobile photo album. Using Olympus' [ib] solution you can retouch and perfect images, as well as organise and create your own personal collections and categorise by person, event, location, date or theme with ease. The software cleverly classifies the pictures according to the recording date automatically during upload to your PC and has the capability to recognise up to 16 faces as subjects to classify accordingly.

NEW Photo surfing

With the [ib] software and 1GB built in memory of the SP-600UZ respectively, the new photo surfing feature allows you to download your favourite pictures from your PC back to your camera and search them quickly by date, person or location creating your very own portable photo album. By recording location information for a classified event or by person or location, you can also easily find the pictures you want to print or upload to your favourite social media site or share with friends and family wherever you are on your travels
