      Olympus C-740 Ultra Zoom

      By Jeff Keller

      Review summary: In the "old days", there wasn't much competition in the ultra zoom arena. That is changing, with Fuji, HP, and Panasonic now getting into the act. That's good, because it means that consumers will get better products.

      Pros: 10X zoom lens ; Less purple fringing than earlier models ; Full manual controls, including white balance which you can fine tune ; Customizable buttons and menus ; Can store four sets of your settings ; Very good image quality (though a tad noisy) ; ...

      Cons: Noise levels higher than they should be ; No AF illuminator ; Over-sensitive power button ; EVF difficult to see in low light ; No more sound recording, flash sync port (which C-730 had) ; Slowest shutter speeds only available in full manual mode ; ...
