Even in daylight you may find yourself shooting at ISO 400 in order to get a fast shutter speed when zoomed in. With a long zoom camera like this, higher ISOs aren't just for low-light shooting. If you're just looking to share photos on the web you can probably get away with shooting at ISO 800, but if you opt to buy the X2600, you'd be advised to avoid ISO 1600 if you can. A similar budget superzoom, the Olympus SP-620UZ is a bit faster it starts in 1.9 seconds and is a bit slower with shot-to-shot times at 1.3 seconds, but its shutter lag is only 0.2-second and it can shoot bursts of low-resolution photos at 4.6 or 14.9fps if desired. The shutter lag increases if you're shooting in low light, or if you're trying to take a photo at the maximum zoom in both cases we clocked it around 1.8 seconds.

It requires 2.2 seconds to start up and take a photo, its shutter lag is a lengthy 0.4-second, and it can only take a photo once every 1.2 seconds in continuous drive mode. Performance and Conclusions The X2600 is one of the slower cameras that we've tested. There are also a few settings that you can use to adjust the JPG output to best suit your photographic vision-the color mode, contrast, and sharpness can be tweaked to your liking. You can adjust exposure compensation, flash compensation, the ISO, white balance, and the focus and exposure area.

Other controls are always available, assuming you aren't shooting in full automatic mode. (In other modes, these settings are visible, but skipped over.)

It allows you to imprint photos with a permanent date stamp (with the existence of EXIF data in each JPG file, this seems rather silly), and more practical things like adjusting the aperture or shutter speed when the camera is set to manual mode.

It's a ribbon-style overlay that occupies the top strip of the LCD. If you want to adjust camera settings during shooting, you'll have to do so via an on-screen menu. Screens like this are par for the course on budget models you'll have to move up to a more expensive camera like the Fujifilm HS50EXR in order to enjoy the benefits of a top-end 920k-dot LCD. The LCD is fairly large at 3 inches, but its 230k-dot resolution gives it a pixelated, fuzzy look.

Instead you're limited to automatic, program, manual, or a number of scene modes.Īside from a movie record button, the rear controls are for menu navigation and playback settings. There's a mode dial, but it lacks the aperture priority and shutter priority settings seasoned photographers are used to. Below that are buttons to control the flash output, enable macro shooting, and control the drive mode. There are a few controls on the top of the camera the standard shutter release and zoom rocker are at the peak of the grip. Its aperture is a decent f/3.2 on the wide end, but narrows to f/5.6 when zoomed all the way in-so you'll likely have to use a higher ISO setting to get a sharp shot when zoomed all the way in, even with the built-in optical stabilization system. The lens covers a 26x range, starting at 26mm and zooming all the way to 676mm. That camera is 3.1 by 4.1 by 2.9 inches and weighs 12.5 ounces, but manages to squeeze an EVF into its body. It's actually a bit bigger than another GE budget option, the X600. The body is hard plastic and the ample handgrip is covered by a textured leatherette. It's available in blue or black, and feels very sturdily built. It can't touch our Editors' Choice superzoom, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200, a much more expensive camera, and there are better budget options in this class.ĭesign and Features The X2600 measures 3.1 by 4.6 by 2.9 inches (HWD) and weighs in at just over a pound. But image quality drops off as you increase the ISO above its lowest setting, and the combination of a low-resolution LCD and lack of an EVF make shooting at the maximum 676mm focal length a bit of an adventure (and not in a good way). It's got an impressively sharp 26x zoom lens and in bright light the 16-megapixel image sensor is capable of delivering some sharp images. The General Electric X2600 ($169.99 direct) is another in the company's budget-priced camera lineup.
