  • A great inexpensive choice, the Olympus SH-21 is well suited to travellers who need a versatile snapper that feels like it could take a knock. The well thought-out quick-access menus are a boon. All in all, it's a great little package....

  • Picture quality could be better from 800 ISO upwards, Lens quality at telephoto settings, TN screen (looks black when viewed from below), Touchscreen interface is incomplete (not active in menus)
  • The Olympus SH-21 is a basic but nicely designed camera with a promising set of tech specs. Unfortunately, picture quality isn't quite up to scratch—mainly because lens quality is just too variable between models. Even if you do happen to get an SH-21 ...

  • The Olympus SH-21 packs a great range of features and is compact with an impressive zoom range. The camera takes a decent image but detail isn't as strong as you'd hope for from a 16 megapixel sensor, but where the SH-21 does excel is noise at higher ISO...

  • Für den großen Brennweitenbereich ist die Olympus SH-21 eine recht kompakte Kamera im noblen Metallgehäuse. Angenehm ist die Mischung aus Touchscreen und mechanischen Bedienelementen. Man kann – muss aber nicht. Die Bildqualität hinkt der guten Aussta...
