An Olympus ultra zoom 'traveler' camera wears its class on its sleeve - there's no mistaking the huge optical zoom lens on the front, nor the extraordinary character and quality of the images it delivers. That's what makes the SP-720UZ traveler the camera of choice for anyone with the ambition to step up from a pint-sized point-and-shoot to a powerful, great-value, go-anywhere compact that can capture genuinely challenging shots. It offers impressive wide-angle capability for shooting landscapes, interiors and crowds. But it's the extreme telephoto potential that really stands out. Notwithstanding its super-slim, compact design, the SP-720UZ delivers fully 26x optical magnification. That gives you the flexibility to zoom in and capture the expressive energy of wildlife, competitive sports and other unapproachable subjects without having to carry interchangeable lenses.
