Olympus's 2009 flagship ultra-zoom bridge — 12MP, 26x 26-676mm f/2.8-5.0 lens, raw and PASM, AA power.

The SP-590UZ arrived in early 2009 at the top of Olympus's SP ultra-zoom line, succeeding the SP-570UZ and briefly claiming the longest zoom of any compact camera at launch. It was an SLR-styled bridge camera aimed at buyers who wanted one machine to cover everything from wide landscapes to distant wildlife, and it reached UK shops from March 2009.

Its headline feature is the 26x optical zoom covering a 26-676mm equivalent range at f/2.8-5.0, in front of a 12-megapixel 1/2.33-inch sensor. Dual Image Stabilisation combines sensor-shift and digital correction, exposure modes run the full P/A/S/M set with raw recording, sensitivity spans ISO 64-6400, and burst shooting reaches 10fps at reduced quality. There is a 2.7-inch, 230,000-dot HyperCrystal II LCD, an HDMI port, 1cm super-macro focusing, storage on xD-Picture Card or microSD via the bundled MASD-1 adapter, and power from four AA batteries.

This suits travellers and casual wildlife or sports shooters who value reach above all; 676mm equivalent in a single package is still striking. Image quality at the long end and higher ISOs shows the limits of the small sensor, and the contrast-detect autofocus is not built for fast erratic subjects, but the manual modes and raw output give plenty to work with.

AA power keeps a used SP-590UZ easy to run, but storage needs attention: it takes discontinued xD cards or microSD only through the small MASD-1 adapter, which is often lost, so check the adapter is included. Test the zoom through its whole 26x travel for smoothness, confirm stabilisation is working at full telephoto, and inspect the pop-up flash and mode dial.
