Olympus's slim 2006 entry compact — 6MP CCD, 38-114mm equiv 3x zoom, 2.5in LCD, xD storage; sold as X-750
The Olympus FE-190 was a slim 6-megapixel digital compact announced in 2006 within the FE series, Olympus's entry-level line built around simple automatic operation. In some markets the identical camera was sold as the Olympus X-750, one of the brand's characteristic multi-name schemes of the period, and it slotted in above basic FE models like the FE-170.
A 6-megapixel CCD sits behind a 3x zoom of 6.3-18.9mm (38-114mm equivalent, f/3.1-5.9) with an aspherical element and TTL contrast-detection autofocus down to 10cm, or 5cm in macro. Sensitivity is automatic from ISO 80 to 1000, shutter speeds span 4s to 1/2000s, and framing is on a 2.5in, 110,000-pixel LCD with no optical finder. Storage is xD-Picture Card (Type M/H) plus about 22MB internal memory, video records as QuickTime at 320x240/30fps, and power is the rechargeable Olympus LI-42B lithium-ion battery. The body measures 91x59x19mm and weighs 110g.
With shooting programs such as indoor, sunset, fireworks, document and self-portrait but no manual exposure control, the FE-190 was designed for people who wanted a genuinely pocketable camera with nothing to configure. The mid-2000s CCD renders pleasant colour in good light, but ISO 1000 output is noisy and the small flash has a short 2.7m reach.
On the used market check the xD-Picture Card situation first: cards are long discontinued and command collector prices, and the internal memory holds very few full-size shots. Confirm the LI-42B battery holds charge and a charger is included, inspect the LCD for scratches and bright-pixel damage, and test the lens barrel extends without error messages — barrel faults are a common failure on slim Olympus compacts of this era.
