Olympus FE-25 vs Olympus VR-320

Below, we are reviewing the Olympus FE-25 vs Olympus VR-320, one is a Ultracompact and the other is a Small Sensor Superzoom and they are both created by Olympus. There exists a sizeable gap between the sensor resolutions of the FE-25 (10MP) and VR-320 (14MP) but they come with the exact same sensor measurements (1/2.3").

The FE-25 was introduced 3 years prior to the VR-320 which is quite a large gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras come with different body type with the Olympus FE-25 being a Ultracompact camera and the Olympus VR-320 being a Compact camera.

Before delving through a step-by-step comparison, below is a concise summation of how the FE-25 matches up versus the VR-320 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Olympus FE-25 and Olympus VR-320. The whole galleries are available at Olympus FE-25 Gallery and Olympus VR-320 Gallery.

If you're looking to carry around your camera frequently, you are going to need to think about its weight and dimensions. The Olympus FE-25 has got external dimensions of 93mm x 62mm x 24mm (3.7" x 2.4" x 0.9") accompanied by a weight of n/a grams (0.00 lbs) while the Olympus VR-320 has dimensions of 101mm x 58mm x 29mm (4.0" x 2.3" x 1.1") having a weight of 158 grams (0.35 lbs).

Do not forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you have chosen at that moment. Following is the front view overall size comparison of the FE-25 compared to the VR-320.

Considering dimensions and weight, the portability score of the FE-25 and VR-320 is 98 and 94 respectively.

More often than not, it is very difficult to visualize the contrast between sensor sizes only by reviewing a spec sheet. The pic underneath will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the FE-25 and VR-320.

As you can see, both of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but different MP. You should expect to see the Olympus VR-320 to offer you greater detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more aged FE-25 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
