Remember the Essentials

Sufficient memory is not included.
Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.

The Olympus FE-47 Digital Camera offers high-quality imaging technology in a convenient, compact form factor. Composing photos is easy on the camera's bright 2.7" LCD screen. Intelligent Auto (iAuto) Mode analyzes your composition and automatically adjusts critical exposure settings for brilliant, hassle-free shooting.

Affordably priced, the FE-47 features 14.0 megapixel resolution, 5X optical zoom lens, Face Detection, Autofocus Tracking, high ISO 1600 capability, and many other must-have features previously found only in complicated, higher priced models. Powered by two AA-size batteries, it's easy to power up wherever you are - no need for battery chargers or international power adapters. With all this and more, the Olympus FE-47 is an excellent choice for beginning photographers and photo enthusiasts alike.

14 Megapixels

2.7" LCD
This large 2.7" LCD features an extra-wide viewing angle and anti-glare technology for easier composing and shooting even in direct, bright sunlight.
AF Tracking
AF Tracking automatically tracks unpredictable, fast-moving subjects such as kids and pets, and continuously adjusts the focus and brightness so you can capture these photogenic whirlwinds with ease.
Digital Image Stabilization

Advanced Face Detection
Advanced Face Detection tracks up to 16 faces and automatically focuses and optimizes exposures for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures.
Intelligent Auto

      Pros

      • Great Zoom

      • Poor Image Quality
      • Poor Image Stabilization
      • Too Large / Bulky

      Best Uses

      • Family Photos

      Comments about Olympus FE-47 Digital Camera (Black):

      The camera needs memory card,battery plus a battery charger,but the price is still good for a camera of 14 mpxls and too many functions.
      The pictures aren't the best pictures I've ever seen in my life but it is enough for me.
      Sometimes they are a little bit oragenge but if you put at a the computer and change brighteness and contrast it will be fine.
      Also it is a little bit heavy,but is still good for the price.

          We use the olympus model cameras for taking photos to document our work. They are rugged, take good photos and use AA batteries, a real plus if you are out in the middle of the night and your batteries die...
