Olympus VR-320 Review

 

The Olympus VR-320 is a pocketable 14-megapixel travelzoom camera that won't break the bank. Featuring a 12.5x optical zoom, the VR-320 also offers dual image stabilisation, 720p HD movie capture, 3-inch LCD screen, a 1cm super macro mode, range of...

Olympus VR-320

 

Nice colour. easy to use clear instructions & menu. Light weight

Picture is nearly always soft blurry. You have to hold camera really steady and for long time to get a good picture, no snap & go as with my previous olympus. Focusing not good.
