Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic camera!
The Olympus SP-570UZ is handy, simple to learn to use and produces terrific results. I especially love the crispness of close-ups. I got it because it has a hot shoe but have not used the external flash yet. Otherwise, the 560UZ is just about as good. I highly recommend both of these models, but if you want the extra flash, get the 570UZ.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Olympic Camera
I love this camera. I bought it for digital submissions of art work for my Advanced Placement Studio Art students and it takes wonderful images.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not what I'm used to in an Olympus
I have owned Olympus cameras for over 10 years now and have always had a great experience, so when I was ready to move up to a bigger model I of course looked to them.
I am so dissapointed though, not only am I out over $400, I have a camera that is inferior to my old olympus. I am not impressed by the quality of the prints this camera takes, I find it very cumbersome to use. I was so quick to focus on things with the little toggle button on my old camera and now I have to use two hands ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A good replacement for an SLR
I had my Canon XTi stollen. Very sad day. Loved it. But I needed a decent camera to take with me on a trip to SE Asia, and I had no time or money to research the new Canon XSi. SO I went with a review in some PC magazine and tried the Olympus SP-570UZ, especially appealing with Amazon's price. After about 2000 pictures, lots of experimenting, I am very happy with this camera. The image quality and sharpness is outstanding which is what I most require in any camera. Its long zoom (20x) results in ... Read More


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Little Things Ruin It
I've read so many good things about this camera that I almost hate to be a detractor. But as a hard-shooting amateur, I find this camera frustrating in so many ways that I'm already seeking a replacement after just a few months.

Some of the big things are OK (build, weight, menu structure, view finder, LCD, battery life, memory) but some of the biggest things are not (auto-focus speed and accuracy, image stabilization, lens, menu defaults, controls, zoom). But even if you can live with ... Read More
