Picture Quality / Size Options (7.5)
The Olympus 830 has 8 megapixels spread across a 1/2.35-inch CCD sensor. It records JPEG files with a high resolution of 3264 x 2448, good for prints up to 16.5 x 11.7 inches. Users can choose from a variety of image sizes, outlined below. Images can be sized appropriately for prints or the Web. The 16:9 option is for landscapes and viewing images on widescreen televisions. Users can’t choose the amount of compression applied to the file.

Picture Effects Mode (6.5)
A limited number of picture effects are available in the Playback mode. The Color Edit menu is a submenu of the Edit menu. Images can be converted to black & white or sepia and saturation can be bumped up or down, for more vibrant or muted images. Comparatively, the Stylus 830 doesn’t offer much in this area. Competing cameras, such as the Casio Exilim EX-V8, have more options that can be activated before or after shooting. There is also fine tuning for contrast, saturation, and sharpness, allowing users to bypass post-processing on a computer.

    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
