Super zooms trump SLRs
Check out the cool guy he
http://www.letsgodigital.org/en/20969/olympus-sp590uz/ He is cool and young and sexy and good looking and is holding the future in his hands. Check out the balding, nerdy creep in the background with his ridiculous tripod and huge lens. I hope this bites Olympus in the ass. |

Apart from the questionable lens quality, when I've used the previous models in the SP5xxUZ range, they've all been slower than treacle on a winter's day. My S2IS is no speed demon, but the Oly's were even slower. Very slow to focus, poor shot-to-shot time etc. The example they give on the website of zooming in on the kid's face playing sport is just dreaming. No way in hell one of these cameras would be able to lock focus on a moving object like that when zoomed in. |

With a camera like this, I can dump not just my DSLR but Photoshop, as well! "Beauty Mode lets you smooth a person’s skin, removing unwanted wrinkles or blemishes. Additionally, make subtle edits, such as slightly emphasizing and brightening the eyes, with a new post-capture featu Beauty Fix." "Smile Shot detects a smile on your subject’s face and automatically fires off three consecutive shots to capture that perfect smile." "Use the new Soft Background Focus mode on your next trip to a National Park. It enables you to slightly blur the beautiful vista, lake or canyon in the background to accent the majestic wildlife in the foreground." heh heh dwight |

The only thing new is Olympus still can't make a digital camera, 10 years into the revolution. Trumps a SLR? Yeah right. You get a 100 MPG from your Dodge Phoenix too, do you? D-Mac.info |
