FeaturesIf you’re looking for a GPS that combines outdoor touchscreen navigation with a digital camera, you’ve found it in the Oregon 550. This handheld GPS will guide you in any activity, on any terrain, no matter if you’re a beginner or expert.
Snapshots The Oregon 550’s digital camera will become your best friend. It boasts a 3.2 megapixel autofocus digital camera with 4x digital automatic zoom. You can geotag each photo with its location, which means you can always navigate back to that spot. Take and view photos in landscape or portrait mode, and store them all with 850 megabytes of internal memory.
See everything Oregon 550 will show you every detail with its 3-inch diagonal sunlight-readable color touchscreen and simple menu. And, of course, the waterproof Oregon 550 can withstand Mother Nature’s harshest elements.
Know where you’re heading With a built-in 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, your Oregon 550 shows your heading even when you’re standing still or not holding it level. If you want to know your altitude, the barometric altimeter tracks pressure changes to show you how high you’re standing. Plus, the high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction shows you your location quickly and accurately, no matter where you are.
Customize your maps Oregon 550 already comes with a worldwide built-in basemap with shaded relief. But you’ll have no problem adding your own maps using a MapSource microSD card preloaded with detailed maps. You can add detailed street maps for turn-by-turn navigation, and select topographic maps will help you capitalize on Oregon’s 3-D map and elevation detail. You can also add BlueChart g2 maps for your day on the water, including depth contours, navaids and harbors.
Geocaching like a champ Oregon 550 gives you paperless geocaching. You can download information form Geocaching.com for up to 5,000 caches. You’ll see important details like terrain, difficulty, hints and descriptions.
Get physical Oregon 550 works with Garmin’s heart-rate monitors and speed/cadence sensors. It also tracks your speed, distance elevation and location, making it the perfect addition for running or biking.
Go social Oregon 550 allows you to share your waypoints, tracks, geocaches and routes wirelessly with other compatible Oregon and Colorado users. All you have to do is press “send” to transfer your information.
