Description — Olympus SZ-11
The Olympus SZ-11 is a compact point-and-shoot camera equipped with a 14MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor and the TruePic III+ image processor. Its sensor-shift image stabilization (IBIS) system works to minimize the impact of camera shake during everyday handheld shooting.

With an ISO range of 80 to 1600 and six color profiles — including Standard, Vivid, Natural, Muted, Monotone, and Art Filters — there's meaningful creative flexibility built right in. Burst mode reaches up to 7fps, and subject tracking via contrast detection autofocus helps keep moving subjects in focus. The built-in flash supports five modes: Auto, On, Off, Red-Eye, and Fill-in.
For connections, the SZ-11 offers USB and Mini HDMI output, and accepts SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards. The camera weighs 226g and measures 106 x 69 x 40mm, powered by a LI-50B battery rated at approximately 200 shots per charge. Note that there is no weather sealing, and no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth is available.
