Excellent 20x zoom - minimum size

The SP-565 UZ Olympus offers you an extraordinary strong zoom. The Dual Image Stabilisation prevents camera shake, even when using the 20x optical zoom, while Advanced Face Detection Technology automatically detects up to 16 faces and then sets the optimal focus and exposure. 10 Megapixels cater to all resolution needs, and with the high-speed shooting function of 13.5 images per second, you won't miss a frame. The high-performance camera is complemented by an extremely bright wide-angle lens.
