Olympus's top budget FE compact of 2009 — 10MP, 5x 36-180mm zoom, sensor-shift Dual IS, xD/microSD

The Olympus FE-5000 was announced in January 2009 together with the FE-3010 and FE-45, sitting at the top of the budget FE line thanks to its longer zoom and sensor-shift stabilisation. Like the rest of the series it was built around fully automatic operation for point-and-shoot buyers.

A 10-megapixel 1/2.33-inch CCD sits behind a 5x optical zoom spanning 36-180mm equivalent, framed on a 2.7-inch LCD. Dual Image Stabilisation combines a movable CCD with raised ISO to fight blur — unusual at this price in the FE range — while Advanced Face Detection can track up to 16 faces and Intelligent Auto recognises common scenes. Images store to internal memory, xD-Picture Cards or microSD cards, and power is a rechargeable lithium-ion battery.

The 180mm-equivalent reach and genuine sensor-shift stabilisation make it a touch more capable than its FE stablemates for travel and casual telephoto shots, though the slow zoom and small CCD still confine it to good light. It suits snapshot users and late-2000s digicam collectors.

Storage needs either a discontinued xD-Picture Card or a microSD card in the Olympus MASD-1 adapter, so check what is included — the adapter is tiny and frequently lost. The LI-42B-type battery remains easy to source. Verify the stabilisation and zoom work through the range and the LCD is free of bleed.
