Garmin Oregon 550t Handheld GPS Unit

The Garmin Oregon 550t Handheld GPS Unit is the handheld GPS navigator with a built-in photographic memory.

The Oregon 550t combines rugged touchscreen navigation with a quality 3.2mp digital camera.

Among the many features supplied as standard with this model are pre-loaded Euro Top maps, high-sensitivity GPS, a barometric altimeter, a three-axis electronic compass and a microSD card slot, making the Garmin Oregon 550t a really impressive multi-purpose device that will make your biggest adventures even more memorable and recordable.

Use the Garmin Oregon 550t's 3.2MP digital camera with autofocus and 4-times digital zoom to capture the locations you visit and the memories you will treasure. Each photo you take is automatically geotagged with the location of where it was taken, allowing you to navigate back to that exact spot in the future. Snap and then view your pictures in landscape or portrait orientation. With a big 850MB of internal memory, you will never need to miss a photo opportunity.

To store your pictures online, simply connect your Garmin Oregon 550t Handheld GPS Unit to a PC or laptop via USB and log into my.garmin.com to upload and store your photos at Picasa, a popular online photo-sharing community for friends and families to share wherever they may be around the world.

If you need more storage, the Garmin Oregon 550t features a microSD card slot so you can even view pictures from other devices on a microSD card with the Garmin Oregon's picture viewer.

Navigation is made really easy with the tough 3-inch diagonal, sunlight-readable colour touchscreen display on the Garmin Oregon 550t. Such a simple interface to use means you will spend more time enjoying the great outdoors and less time searching for information.

Durable and waterproof, the Garmin Oregon 550t Handheld GPS Unit is built to withstand the elements. Bumps, dust, dirt, humidity, water - none of these is a match for this rugged navigator.

The Garmin Oregon 550t is supplied pre-loaded with a European topographic map at 1:100k scale with street-level detail, elevation contours, points of interest and even land-use descriptions.

The Garmin Oregon 550t has a built-in three-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, which shows your heading even when you are standing still and without the need to hold it level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude - and you can even use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions. With a high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction, the Garmin Oregon 550t will locate your position quickly and precisely and will maintain its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons.

Further detail can be added to the Garmin Oregon 500t by simply inserting a MapSource microSD card pre-loaded with detailed maps.

The Garmin Oregon 550t Handheld GPS Unit can accept a variety of maps for any navigational need:

  • Add detailed street maps for turn-by-turn directions to your destination
  • Add selected topographic maps to take advantage of Oregon’s 3-D maps and elevation detail
  • Or add BlueChart g2 maps, which provide everything you need for a great day on the water, including depth contours, navaids and harbours

The Garmin Oregon 550t allows you to join the ever more popular online global scavenger hunt that is called geocaching. Go paperless with the Oregon 550t by quickly downloading information from Geocaching.com for up to 5000 caches, including location, terrain, difficulty, hints and description. No more do you need to spend time manually entering the coordinates and relying on paper printouts.

With the Oregon 550t you can share your waypoints, tracks, routes and geocaches wirelessly with other Oregon and Colorado users. Now you can send your favourite route to a friend to enjoy or tell him or her the location of a cache to find. Sharing data is easy, just touch 'Send' to transfer your information to similar devices.
