Olympus SH-25MR Review
The Olympus SH-25MR has an impressive set of features that make it a real contender if you need a new camera with the emphasis on travel, though to be fair, the feature set would help anyone anywhere. The decent zoom range and GPS system make it even more versatile.
Pros:
- Zoom range, High-speed shooting, Touch screen AF
- GPS and Compass system, Battery life, Colour capture performance, Low ISO image quality
Cons:
- Grip needs a rubberised
- grippier surface
- Soft images at corners and image edges
- Skin tones in portraits
- Odd flash control
- Display visibility in bright conditions

Olympus SH-25MR Digital Camera Review
What it lacks in rigidity and robustness as compared to its ‘Tough' Olympus cousins, the SH-25MR more than makes up for in its sophistication, ease-of-use and genuinely diverse ability.

- Able to take full-resolution stills during video capture
- Well made and easy to use
- Great range of art filters

- Able to take full-resolution stills during video capture
- Well made and easy to use
- Great range of art filters
- Extensive range of in-camera options
