Olympus SZ-15 Preview

Olympus has announced two new members of its Stylus SZ-series. The SZ-15 costs about $30 less than the SZ-16 iHS because it lacks Hand-held Starlight Mode, the TruePix VI image processor, and Mulit-Motion Image Stabilization (which help shooting stills in low light conditions and/or video in all conditions). 

But fret not, friends, the SZ-15 is otherwise fully loaded.

This includes a 16-megapixel CMOS image sensor, capable of recording Full HD video, the well regarded TruePix III+ Image Processor, 11 Magic Filters, Beauty Make-up Mode, and Smart Panorama. Beauty Make-up mode allows users to apply blush, eye shadow, and other make-ups to any photo you like. And Smart Panorama captures stunning 360-degree panoramas. All that with a 35mm zoom equivalent of 25-600mm!

Olympus SZ-15 Features
  • 16MP CMOS image sensor
  • 24x optical zoom
    • 25mm wide angle
  • TruePix III+ Image Processor
  • Dual Image Stabilization
  • Full HD Video Recording
  • 3.0-inch LCD display
  • 11 Magic Filters
  • Beauty Make-up Mode
  • Smart Panorama

Available in red, silver, or black this March (2013), the Olympus SZ-15 has an estimated MSRP of $199.99.
