Each photo 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 view pictures in landscape or portrait orientation and with 850MB of internal memory, you'll never miss a photo opportunity.

The interface is easy to use, so you’ll spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time searching for information. Both durable and waterproof, the Oregon 550 is built to withstand the elements, including, bumps, dust, dirt, humidity and water.

Get Your Bearings

The Oregon 550 has a built-in 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, which shows your heading even when you’re standing still, without holding 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 its high-sensitivity GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction, the Oregon 550 locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons.

The Oregon 550 can accept a variety of maps for any navigational need, just add detailed street maps to get turn-by-turn directions to your destination or add topographic maps to take advantage of Oregon 550’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.
