FeaturesWATCH VIDEO on YouTube If you’re looking for a GPS that combines outdoor touchscreen navigation with a digital camera, you’ve found it in the Oregon 550t. You can also add preloaded US topo maps. It also comes with a high-sensitivity GPS, barometric altimeter, 3-axis electronic compass and a microSD card slot.
Snapshots
The Oregon 550t’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. If you need even more storage, just insert a micro SD card. Plus, you can view pictures from other microSD devices with Oregon’s picture viewer.
See everything
Oregon 550t will show you every detail with its 3-inch diagonal sunlight-readable color touchscreen and simple menu. Plus, a user-friendly interface means you’ll spend more time appreciating nature and less time with your head buried in the sand. And, of course, the waterproof Oregon 550t can withstand Mother Nature’s harshest elements, including water, dust, dirt and humidity.
Become an explorer
Your Oregon 550t is preloaded with built-in topographic data for the entire continental US. And, a worldwide basemap with shaded relief gives you all the navigational tools you need for climbing and hiking. The map details national, state and local parks and forests and shows you terrain contours, elevation information, trails, rivers, lakes and points of interest.
Know where you’re heading
With a built-in 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, your Oregon 550t 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. You can even use it to plot barometric pressure, which helps you anticipate changing weather conditions. Plus, the high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction shows your location quickly and accurately, no matter where you are.
A new level of geocaching
Oregon 550t 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. Plus, you no longer have to manually enter coordinates.
Go social
Oregon 550t 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.
