Olympus SP-510 UZ 7.1 Megapixel

Great Camera!!! Image stabilization is very impressive. The camera has a lot of features for the money and has super print quality.

I bought the Olympus auxiliary lenses for it and was even more amazed. I had tried the after market wide and tele lenses for it but they do not even come close to the OEM auxiliary lenses so don't be fooled. Buy the OEM lenses.

The camera feels good in my hands while not being heavy and cumbersome. The zoom range is great!!! I get sharp pictures even zoomed all the way out!

All the buttons are easy to manipulate and easily figured out. I can even manually focus this camera when I'm trying to take pictures of fireworks and other things in dark settings where any autofocus would struggle. VERY USEFUL FEATURE.

The view screen/monitor is clear and bright even in the sun where other screens disappear in the bright light.

This is my 7th Olympus point and shoot camera and probably as close to a DSLR as a person can get. Each model has unique features so I've kept them all so far. I'll be stepping up the the DSLR Olympus soon.

The quality of the Olympus images is beyond amazing. My Sony/Canon/Nikon DSLR friends are all jealous of my pics that I get with my little Olympus Point and Shoot cameras. I've converted a few to Olympus so far and I'm working on the rest. The ones that didn't believe me wish they had after they bought their kodaks and sonys.

I also matched this up with the Olympus P-10 photo printer and I get better pictures than any photo lab can print even with conventional 35mm film and paper. I use to work in a pro lab for 14 years and this is the best product combination that has come out since digital imaging started. The cost per print is comparable materially but I don't have to go anywhere to print my pics. I can print in the convenience of my own home on my own time. GO OLYMPUS!!!
