Summary: Jumped from Olympus C-750...
Comment: I have had the C-750 for a few years, and have taken some great shots with it. I do a lot of landscape and wild critter shoots.
Got the Olympus SP-570UZ as a gift last week, and have taken all kinds of shots, LOVE the macro and super macro, great portraits, and zoomed in on Elk across the valley like a charm.
The only thing keeping me from giving this camera a 5 star rate, is the fact that I had a hard time zipping from subject to subject in the small manual, and would dearly love to have the manual on disk that the Olympus C-750 had.
What I ended up doing is just getting the camera out, and pressing buttons, and looking at menus, (when I finally figured out how to get to them) and taking pix 'til I got the hang of it. I feel that there are SO MANY things I am still going to find out from this camera, and I have to say I do LOVE it!Olympus SP-570UZ 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Optical Dual Image Stabilized Zoom

Summary: My spouse keeps taking it
Comment: I've used an Olympus for several years but haven't found one until now that could compete with my original 5 megapixel in the C700 series --of which I've worn out four.
It seems clear that Olympus engineers have killed themselves to make every possible improvement to this lovely camera: the feel, the extended power lens, the careful amount of indoor flash, the many options for scenes, all with the clarity Olympus is famous for. As usual, the camera takes better photos than I even think I'm getting. The big problem is that my spouse, who carries a big bazooka Canon lens, can't keep his hands off this new camera of mine--which actually can take longer telephoto shots than his. Only one design problem remains: the lens cap still won't stay on. Also, my old C-765 can take a great shot of the moon without a tripod, but so far I haven't been able to point and shoot at the moon with this one.

Summary: Beware - Auto-Zoom NOT Included!
Comment: Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1P0A5EM4N87ZN As someone who's used an older version of SP series I opened the package from Amazon today and became puzzled not able to find built-in flash - I thought you had to buy a separate external flash, which costs over $100. But I realized was an idiot and now (after I uploaded this video) I found the little button that fliped the built-in flash. Phew!
But please beware - the auto zoom button is just there for cosmetic reasons only: you have to adjust the zoom lends with your own hands. (It still auto-focuses, though.)
Aside from that issue this camera ROCKS!

Summary: Best I have owned
Comment: All that I expected. Little more complicated than I had anticipated. Maybe in 6 more months I will explore all the of the many features. What I really liked (as compared to older digital cameras) is the fast next shot availability. I don't have to wait for seconds to go by.
Picture quality at all zoom levels are great.

Summary: A Really Nice Camera
Comment: This camera will do a lot more than I know how to do. But the features I like the most are the 20X zoom lens and the Super Macro setting. I take a lot of closeups for posting on eBay and this is the best camera I have ever used for that purpose. The landscape feature is also nice and with this lens you can get some amazing shots at 10mp and fine resolution. If you only want one camera to use for everything, this is the one that I would recommend.
