Its video and image quality isn't spectacular, but still images are good at lower ISOs and acceptable through ISO 800. When you consider its features and asking price, the GE X600 represents a good value-with some compromises. Like most point-and-shoots, the camera uses SD, SDHC, and SDXC memory cards. There's a micro HDMI port to connect to an HDTV, and a micro USB port that allows you to plug the camera into your computer for data transfer or into the included AC adapter for battery charging. The camera can zoom in or out when recording, and you can hear the lens moving as it does so-there's no mic input, so there's no way around this. It shows up when there is motion in your frame or if you pan the camera-the top half of your video moves more quickly than the bottom half, giving footage a bit of a rubber pencil effect. I recommend grabbing footage at the lower 720p60 resolution-the faster frame rate helps to reduce the evidence of the rolling shutter effect, which is very troublesome at 1080p30. Video is recorded in 1080p30 or 720p60 quality in QuickTime format. If you can keep the camera set to ISO 400 or lower your images will look better, especially when printed, but ISO 800 will work for sharing on the Web. In terms of noise, which can harm image detail, the X600 keeps it under 1.5 percent through ISO 800-but it would appear that it does so via some overzealous noise reduction.
The camera records 1,842 lines per picture height, which is better than the 1,800 lines required for a sharp photo. I used Imatest to check the sharpness of images captured by the X600. The Olympus SP-620UZ starts faster-it boots in 1.9 seconds and notches a 0.2-second shutter lag, but is limited to snapping a full-resolution photo once every 1.3 seconds at maximum resolution. In Continuous Drive mode it can shoot at an impressive 6.5 frames per second. It requires about 4 seconds to start and shoot and records a 0.4-second shutter lag. Performance and Conclusions The X600 is a slow camera to start and to fire.

You also get Face Beautifier (which softens features), a panoramic shooting mode, and a black-and-white mode directly from the dial, and a number of scene modes (including Fireworks, Pets, and Snow) can be access via a software menu. You'll have access to Automatic, Manual, Program, and Shutter Priority modes-although there is no Aperture Priority mode available. There are a number of shooting modes built into the camera. The rear of the camera features buttons to adjust Exposure Compensation, change the autofocus area, enable macro shooting, control the flash output, and activate the self timer. There's a mode dial on the top, as well as buttons to start video recording and to control the Drive Mode. GE doesn't publish the resolution for the EVF, but it is acceptably sharp. It's especially useful for zoomed shots, as it makes it possible to hold the camera closer to your body to get a steadier shot. Separating itself from other cameras in this price range, the X600 does have an eye-level electronic viewfinder. There's no hard protective cover, so some care should be taken when stowing the camera in your bag-you don't want to damage or scratch the LCD accidentally. The rear LCD is 2.7 inches, but is a little bit on the soft side due to its low 230k-dot resolution. It exceeds the zoom range of the similarly styled and priced Olympus SP-620UZ -its 21x zoom lens starts at 25mm, but only zooms to 525mm. The 26x zoom lens covers an impressive 26-676mm f/3.2-5.6 (35mm equivalent) range. Best Malware Removal and Protection Software.
