First 18x optical zoom camera

Olympus SP-550 UZ

With an 18x wide zoom lens (equivalent to 28-504mm on a 35mm camera) there’s no need to disturb your subject. Telephoto shots can be prone to blur caused by camera shake, so the SP-550 UZ features Dual Image Stabilization to help deliver clear results. The burst rate is up to 15 frames per second*! And with a 6.4cm LCD it’s easy to frame and capture shots, without having to squint and make guesses about how the image will turn out.

Night shoots

You can rely on BrightCapture Technology to add brightness to any shot, even in movie mode! With the help of an extra-bright LCD, framing dim shots is no problem, making high-quality photo and video capture a reality in virtually any low-light situation.
