Hey /p/, I was just wondering what you guys think of this camera. I don't really want to drop a ton of money on a DSLR at this point, but I do want a camera that can zoom fairly well and can take nice pictures.

I don't know a digicam with a zoom lens that doesn't zoom well, most are pretty fluid in that respect. As for the nice pictures, I think that depends a lot on the person standing behind it while you fire.

Well, the Olympus SP570-UZ has a sweet 20x zoom and it's not that expensive either.

The problem with Olympus cameras is Olympus memory.

2 GB cards. Forever.

And they're $40 each. The same in SD is like ten bux.

I got a 16gb ultra CF card for my Olympus, 150$.

Never running out of room for pictures is fun.

I've heard that dSLR's zoom really well.
They take the best pics too

Newest Olympus cameras (including the 570) can take microSD cards via an adapter.

The most retarded thing is, that adapter is purely mechanical, which means they HAVE a fully functional SD controller in the camera, just chose not to put a SD slot in it because of their shitty marketing.

That depends on the fucking lens.
It's like saying 'I've heard this BMW radio makes the car go really fast'.

so you buy a compact flash card........
you dont really make a point, unless the person is upgrading and have alot of money in sd cards.

even then its not a good point

s5 is great. for $300 it's a deal.

everyone is expecting an s6 in September though. it's gonna be about $500 with some new stuff. might not be worth it.

Stock of the s5 is slowly running out too. prices have been fluctuating a lot lately.
