Olympus SP 310 reviewA review of the Olympus SP-310 has been published at imaging resource.

The Olympus SP-310 is a compact digital camera, equipped with 7.1 megapixels resolution and a 3x optical zoom. In addition to the optical viewfinder, the SP-310 offers a 2.5 LCD display to compose and review your images. Featuring a fully automatic mode, a large amount of scene modes, as well as full manual controls, the Olympus SP-310 will appeal to both point and shoot photographers as well as the more experienced photographers demanding more control over the image taking process.

The summary of the review:
“The 7.1-megapixel, 3x-zoom Olympus SP-310 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 (in our eyes, anyway) you’ll start to like it right away when you shoot with it. […] 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. […] Even at high ISO, its images were usable at larger print sizes than most competing models. For the traveler or hobbyist photographer looking for a small capable camera that has impressive output, the Olympus SP-310 is a clear Dave’s Pick.”
