Olympus SP-570UZ

By khor

Good camera with features rich full control, so so photo quality, good price ! -Feel good in hand, hand grip nice to hold, the black colour like pro! -The 20 x Zoom is workable in sunny bright day, manual control also work well , auto focus workable too...

After few weeks of using & taken 1000 photo by the SP570UZ, i found the biggest problem is ; LOw light focus hunting 8/10 failed! (Even with assist lamp on ) ; I would say this is something dissappointing

Olympus SP-570UZ

By Mayank Mevcha

I bought 570UZ past 2 weeks ; After operating it for 3-4 days, I observed that some fluid kind of things gets accumulated inside the lens ; Making all ghost images while capturing snaps ; I had to give'em to repairers where he told me that its leakeage of...

Olympus SP-570UZ

By JimmyDee

Like everything about this camera except the rotating zoom action on the lens - it seems to move reluctantly and can make precise composition difficult. You also tend to scratch your right hand with the nails of your left hand while turning the wheel. Tha...

More expensive than the competitors.

Olympus SP-570UZ

By Mark Nguyen

Having this camera for a few days now, but I'll return it because IMO it does not deserve the premium $; its quirks and shortcomings overshadow an otherwise good looking, well built camera with good features. Its image quality is very competitive among it...

The not so good ; Zoom ring: good intention but execution is a joke. Unresponsive, unpredictable and jerky. Zooming is barely tolerable for taking photos but not acceptable while recording movies. Sound recording in movie mode possible only for digital zo...

Olympus SP-570UZ

By Henry Falkner

My SP-570 has better IQ than my SP-550 in most conditions, particularly when DZ is used with subjects at long distance. The improvement shows in 1/2 area crops when printed to A4 (Remember, I have a GOOD SP-550). The pictures are sharper, and have better...

I had the usual finger trouble that is expected when changing models ; Out of the box, zooming stopped for automatic refocussing, and started again, several times over the whole range. Camera update V1.1 makes zooming action much smoother, it pauses sligh...

Olympus SP-570UZ

By myou

Well constructed camera from top to bottom. Comfortable in hand, very logic menu and easy to reach buttons, allows you to reach your goal without frustration. Perfect 26 mm wide to amazing 520 mm tele A real gift from Olympus.

Viewfinder image not so clear ; Batteries can drop dead without enough notice

Olympus SP-570UZ

By sandyssc

Got this camera a week back and thought of posting this review after using it for a week. Very good build quality except for the zoom ring. Features are more than an enthusiastic photographer could ever need, Very easy to access and use. By far one of the...

The AF is slow and fails to find focus at times. The zoom ring should have been more precise.

Olympus SP-570UZ

By Tina Ferrell

I have upgraded to the Olympus SP570 UZ from a Fujifilm Finepix that I bought 7 yrs ago. I wanted a camera that had the capability to do great macro work as well as nature and family pics. After playing around with it I am satisfied that it will suite all...

Okay, I do like this camera, but if I had the option to change a couple things .... The manual has very small print and amounts to about a 100 pgs with index. It could be more user friendly. 2. I like a button zoom rather than the ring - it adjusts more a...
