Olympus FE-290 prices and specs
The Olympus FE-290 was produced on Aug 23, 2007 and is available in USA for $384.15
The Olympus FE-290 is a ultracompact camera. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't make photographs of the same high quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The FE-290 can make images at 7 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the FE-290 will take images with not so high quality as cameras with bigger sensors but instead it is more portable. But if you want to shoot images of the professional quality check Canon EOS 5D Mark IV.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that will be enough for making action images of a satisfactory quality. The FE-290 can even record videos but the max resolution is not very good - 640 x 480 @ 30 fps.
The lens is fixed and the photographer can't change it. The lens provides 4x optical zoom.
