 Olympus SP-310 - Digital compact
According to Steve Sanders: "The ergonomics of this model is pretty awesome. Even though it is very compact, the large handgrip affords a secure and comfortable fit in your hands, and the various controls laid out on the body of the camera fall naturally under your finger tips. The SP-310's shooting performance was slightly better than its sibling, but still disappointing. Power up to first image is captured averaged 3.6 seconds. We feel the shooting performance suffers due to the very slow recording media (xD-picture card.)"
Olympus SP 310 digital camera - Steves Digicams review conclusion
Steve continues: "I was pleased with the image quality if its 7 Megapixel SHQ images. Our outdoor samples were sharp, well exposed and showed good overall colour balance. Noise levels were average, becoming more noticeable as the ISO speed is increased. Battery life was also disappointing. At first I thought that the set of 2500mAh NiMH cells that I was using were bad. However it seemed no matter what set was used, it was about the same.
