The Imaging Resource has posted a new review of the Olympus SP-350. From the review:

The 8.0-megapixel, 3x-zoom Olympus SP-350 is an excellent performer where it counts: printed image quality. It has a wealth of features in a surprisingly compact body; and though it’s not the most attractive design you’ll start to like it right away when you shoot with it. Featuring a full range of exposure control, in addition to 24 preset Scene modes, the SP-350 caters to a large audience. Novices will appreciate the availability of point-and-shoot control, while more experienced users will enjoy the availability of full manual exposure control. A large 2.5-inch LCD monitor provides accurate framing, and a great place to view pictures, with a real-image optical viewfinder available to save battery power, a feature disappearing from most digicams with a large LCD. Though the camera’s Auto white balance setting tends toward a warmer color cast, overall color is generally pretty good, and exposure about right (though high contrast under harsh lighting). Though the slow shutter lag and image transfer times could have been better, the printed image quality of the SP-350 really surprised us. Even at high ISO, its images were usable far larger than most competing models. For the traveler or hobbyist photographer looking for a small capable camera that has impressive output, the Olympus SP-350 is a clear Dave’s Pick.

The Good:

  • Full range of exposure modes from full manual to 24 scene modes
  • Good skin tones
  • Very small macro area in Super Macro mode
  • Very compact size and light weight
  • Very simple user interface
  • Fun to use
  • Hot shoe allows use of external flash for more power and better lighting with bounce shots
  • Innovative Help system
  • Accurate LCD viewfinder
  • Good low light capability
  • Case design fits both large and small hands well
  • Excellent print quality, even at high ISO

The Bad:

  • Contrast is a little high, tends to lose highlight and shadow detail under harsh lighting
  • Slightly warm color in Auto white balance mode
  • Slightly slower than average cycle times
  • Flash coverage a little uneven at wide angle
  • Saving images to card takes too long
  • High distortion and chromatic aberration at full wide angle
  • Scant internal storage, you will need a card
