Digital Camera Review

First Impressions Review

Feb 22, 2005 - By Emily Raymond
The Olympus D series is tailored for point-and-shoot users who don’t want to be bothered with manual adjustments to capture impressive images. The 5-megapixel Olympus D-630 debuts as the new top-of-the-line model with more resolution and increased ease of use with an added Help Guide. A 3x optical zoom lens rotates into place, giving the camera a modern and sleek look, unique in the D series. At 4.4 ounces and only an inch wide, the D-630 provides consumers with a slim, no-fuss digital camera that’s as easily portable as it is to use. There are no manual options included on this Olympus Camedia model; the focus is more on automatic settings and user friendliness. The Olympus D-630 will be available for a retail price of $299 in April.

Picture Quality / Size Options
Offering picture sizes in the standard 4:3 format, the Olympus D-630 has only three still image size options for users to select from: 2560 x 1920, 1600 x 1200, and 640 x 480.

Picture Effects Mode
When photographs are in the Playback mode, they can be changed to Black & White or Sepia colors. Very basic, but then again, in-camera effects generally are.
