Compact travel zoom. The Olympus Stylus SH-2 is a compact long-zoom camera ideal for when you want something compact, light and with enough zoom power for your travels. It has a cool retro look, comes in all-black or black/silver and sports a 24x optical zoom lens in a compact body.

The 24x optical zoom lens has focal length of 4.5 – 108mm (35mm equivalent: 25 – 600mm), allowing you to capture large vistas as well as zoom in close to faraway subjects. An advanced 5-Axis Image Stabilization compensates for camera movements when using that long reach to help you capture sharp, blur-free results. FAST AF Technology provides blazingly fast focusing in any light or zoom, and the convenient Touch AF Shutter feature lets you instantly focus and shoot with a single touch of the 3.0-in. (460K-dot) LCD monitor.

To get even closer to your subject, a Super Macro Mode lets you focus as close as 3cm (1.2 in.). It’s all captured onto a 1/2.3″ 16 Megapixel BSI CMOS image sensor. You can take RAW, and advanced shooters can switch to full Manual mode. Get creative with Art Filters, PhotoStory options, and Panorama Modes.

If you love night photography, a new Live Composite technology extracts the brightest areas from a sequence of interval shots and combines them into one perfectly exposed image. Plus, customized Nightscape Modes capture night scenes, cityscapes, and star trails portraits and videos.

Movies are captured in Full HD video at 1080/60p. Use High-Speed Movie to stretch scenes in slow (120fps) or super-slow motion (240fps). Time Lapse Movie compresses up to five hours of footage into a short 20 second time-lapse video. Photo in Movie allows you to capture still images (JPEG or RAW) while recording video.

The Olympus SH-2 features built-in Wi-Fi for shooting, sharing, and uploading your photo and video. You need to download the free Olympus Image Share app on your smart device. You can also compose your image, control and operate the camera remotely, and geotag photos all from your smart device.

The Olympus Stylus SH-2 will appeal to those desiring a compact, light and powerful zoom camera for travel photography.
