In a partnership with the Fred Hollows Foundation, Olympus is auctioning celebrity photos on eBay to raise money for the charity.

Australian personalities Cam Hollows, Ernie Dingo, Matt Moran, Miranda Kerr, Susie O'Neill and Wayne Cooper recently took up the task of getting behind the camera, rather than their usual place in front of it.

Armed with the Olympus' Mju 1020, the six celebrities were asked to shoot images that inspired them. The results were narrowed down to two shots per person, with the selected shots being auctioned on eBay. All auction proceeds go to the Fred Hollows Foundation, an organisation dedicated to eradicating blindness in the developing world, as well as improving the health and life expectancy of indigenous Australians.

The eBay auctions, which end on Monday, April 28, can be found by clicking the links on the Olympus Australia Web site.

    • Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS

      Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS

      The Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS has trimmed off every gram of fat, but the 12x zoom lens overbalances the camera. It oozes understated élan and even has some clever features, but the performance isn't quite there.

    • Nikon D700

      Nikon D700

      Boasting many of the internal bits from the professional-spec (and professionally priced) D3, the D700 is an (almost) affordable full-frame dSLR. It faces up to the Canon 5D with a 12.1-megapixel CMOS sensor, 51 auto-focussing points, 5fps or 8fps shooting depending on battery and mini-HDMI out.

    • Kodak EasyShare V1073

      Kodak EasyShare V1073

      Don't be fooled by its contemporary metal design: the heart of this disappointing camera is pure plastic.

    • Nikon Coolpix P60

      Nikon Coolpix P60

      Taking on the popular Canon A720 IS with its update to the P50, Nikon's Coolpix P60 includes some non-trivial enhancements, including optical image stabilisation, an electronic viewfinder, and an increase in the zoom range to 5x up from 3.5x.

    • Samsung i8

      Samsung i8

      Aimed at amateurs, the Samsung i8 is a user-friendly digital camera with strong multimedia functionality and helpful how-to guides. Slow performance and the sometimes frustrating logic of the main menu will mean this is probably one to skip unless you're interested in the bare basics.
