Olympus FE-300 Camera Reviewed

PhotographyBLOG has reviewed the Olympus FE-300 camera. Olympus FE-300 is a 12 Megapxiel camera with 3x optical zoom, 4x digital zoom, a 2.5-inch LCD display, ISO rating up to 3200, and 48MB internal memory.

PhotographyBLOG concludes:

Around �200 (less, with Internet deals) for a good looking, stylishly designed 12 megapixel zoom compact from a well-known brand looks like a great deal on paper � almost too good to be true. And so it proves in practice. Though the Olympus FE-300 is commendably easy to use � with that now familiar �guide� function on the mode wheel offering novice users reference to what is, in effect, an in-camera manual that automatically makes function selections for you � and it�s reasonably swift in operation, if not a class leader, the resultant images are what lets it down. The real bugbear here is camera shake, an inherent problem with slender camera designs that the Olympus FE-300 fails to effectively address.
