TechReviewSource.com posted a review on the Olympus SP-620UZ



In many ways, the SP-620UZ ($199.99 direct) is similar to another Olympus superzoom, the 24x SZ-12. Both cameras produce solid images at lower ISO settings, suffer at higher settings, and are limited to 720p video capture. The SZ-12 is a bit smaller, and is a slightly better camera overall, but fans of AA batteries, and the flexibility they can bring, will want to opt for the SP-620UZ. Neither camera can compete with our Editors' Choice superzoom, the Nikon Coolpix P510, but that camera costs more than twice as much.

Design and Features
The SP-620UZ is just 2.9 by 4.3 by 2.9 inches (HWD), but is pretty heavy for its size at 15.3 ounces. It's not pocketable, but is tiny compared with some other superzoom models like the huge Fujifilm X-S1. That SLR-sized shooter packs a slightly more ambitious 26x zoom lens, but comes in at 4.2 by 5.3 by 5.9 inches in size and weighs 2.1 pounds.
