Ephotozine reviews the Olympus SP-820UZ iHS and writes;
“This latest ultra-zoom camera from Olympus is certainly a much better performer than its predecessor, the SP-810UZ. Feature wise, there is more zoom, ISO up to 6400, 1cm minimum focusing distance and full HD video. It’s an ideal travel camera, but it would be even more appealing to the globetrotting photographer if it had GPS. Olympus haven’t changed much with regards to the body, but image quality is much better, clearly an improved sensor has been used on this new model.”

Photographyblog reviews the Olympus SP-820UZ iHS and writes;
“The Olympus SP-820UZ’s biggest selling point is obviously its zoom range – 40x is simply mind blowing in everyday use, although still not the biggest range in the super-zoom market. At 14 megapixels, the SP-820UZ doesn’t sport the highest resolution but it’s certainly high enough for most people’s needs, and the CMOS sensor delivers much better images than the SP-810UZ’s CCD sensor, with noise not rearing it’s ugly head until ISO 800.”

“The Olympus SP-820 UZ is much cheaper than other bridge cameras with zoom lenses this powerful. Plus, image quality will only really be good enough to suit users shooting outdoors in broad daylight.”

Camera is everything we wanted and more!
“The pictures take very quickly to where you don’t have to wait forever long for it to load up. Zoom is great of course ( that is a given) but I’d say this camera takes pictures about as fast as the Cannon SLR’s we were looking at in the stores and for a cheaper price. Trust me you wont regret this purchase. Also takes pictures very steadily even if your hand isn’t steady! We love this product!!” – By jeremy gillen
