FE 280

High tech features and ease of use

With its 5x optical zoom, 10 megapixel resolution and treasure trove of advanced features, the metal-bodied FE-5000 is the leader of the FE-series pack. With that broad zoom range backed up by Dual Image Stabilisation, pictures will always come out crisp and free from blur.

Available in either black or gold, this user-friendly 10-megapixel camera also includes Advanced Face Detection Technology for properly focused people pictures, detecting up to 16 faces in a frame, plus Intelligent Auto Mode that recognises common scenes and subjects and adjusts camera settings automatically to achieve optimum results. A new Perfect Fix setting also allows the photographer to correct minor mistakes after taking the shot.

Offering the best of both worlds – high-tech features and ease of use – the top of its range FE-5000 fits the bill for anyone looking for an affordable snapshot camera that gives great results. An in-camera help guide helpfully informs the user of the effect choosing certain functions will have.

With a one button, one function design principle and high precision 5x optical zoom (36-180mm equivalent in 35mm terms) in a metal body, the FE-5000 doesn’t cut any corners either, combating camera shake by combining mechanical and digital image stabilisation to deliver blur free results.

Also offering an easy route to perfect photography is the FE-5000’s Intelligent Auto Mode that detects the five most commonly used scenes and adjusts settings, focus and exposure automatically, plus 19 shooting modes.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Why am I smiling?, 29 May 2009
    By Jenny Bond (Peterborough England) - See all my reviews
    I still love my first digicam but hey things move on; time to make a change, but what to?
    What's important to me is ease of use, quality of picture and zoom potential.
    I think I have found all these in the Olympus FE-5000 camera. The on screen icons make using it so clear. I can flick through the choice of scene settings really quickly. At the moment I'm still experimenting but partcularly with the zoom feature all I can say is WOW did I take that?
    I love plants and the clarity I can achieve is impressive. The video feature is better quality than I expected.. The camera is small enough to fit in my bag and is now a constant companion. I feel this camera offers exceptional value for money.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic value!, 15 Jun 2009
    By sevy "VB" (Leatherhead Surrey) - See all my reviews
    This camera is so simple to use. The zoom is great and with a good sized screen it is easy to see what you have just taken.
    I checked out a lot of similar cameras before settling on this Olympus but this has more pixels than most at the price and I have had an olympus before which was great. I am extremely glad I purchased this super little classy camera!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Simple features, great photos, 21 Jul 2009
    This takes excellent photos in most conditions; great optical zoom, digital zoom's not bad either.

    Only has a couple of modes and although the macro and supermacro is great, there's no sports mode and it is very slow to 'reset' to be able to take another photo.

    The video function is poor, even at it's "highest" function - I was previously unimpressed with Pentax W30 but this is much worse (although the audio is better) resulting in lines down the screen if there was a light source within the field of view.

    For simple photos, this is a super little camera, for anything more advanced, I'd shop around more.
