Picture Quality / Size Options
Increased resolution of 10 megapixels is available on the 1/2.33-inch CCD. Compare this to Olympus’ SP-560, which has 8 megapixels. The new Olympus SP-570UZ can shoot RAW and JPEG image files. Image sizes include 3648 x 2736, 3648 x 2432 (3:2), 2560 x 1920, 2304 x 1728, 2048 x 1536, 1920 x 1080 (16:9), 1600 x 1200, 1280 x 960, 640 x 480. Fine and normal compression is available. Images can be cropped and resized to 640 x 480 or 320 x 240 pixels in the Playback menu.
 
Picture Effects Mode
There are plenty of picture effects on the Olympus SP-570UZ, but most of them are located in the Playback menu. There is one exception: a "Picture mode" option in the Recording menu that switches from natural colors to vivid colors. There are also sharpness, contrast, and saturation adjustments. The Playback mode hosts the most picture effects. You can create scrapbook pages, calendars, and cards with different frames and labels like "Happy Birthday" and "Congratulations." There is also a color editing option in the Playback mode that shows previews of black & white, sepia, vivid, and muted colors all next to each other so you can pick just the right one. Perhaps the coolest picture effect is a Scene mode. The Multi-Firework mode doesn’t sound like anything special, but it can take multiple exposures and merge them into a single image file – something that has much cooler potential than just fireworks.

    This professionally-geared ultrazoom offers some of the best color accuracy we've ever seen. It's a shame the other scores weren't quite so strong. Read full 16-part review

    Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ47

    Panasonic resists the urge to cram more megapixels and more focal length into their latest ultrazoom. The FZ47 instead focuses on image quality and features, resulting in an incredibly strong camera that we loved shooting with. Read full 16-part review
