Bought this camera as an upgrade to what I had. Nikon 4 megs. Easy to use and the quality of the pictures are fantastic. For this amount of money, what a bargin. This was my first Olympus and it won't be my last,

I've had my SP-59UZ four months. I've taken several hundred photos during this time. The camera takes excellent photos and is very easy to operate. The optical zoom and image stabilizaition are GREAT! I highly recommend this camera.

I've had this camera for about 6 month, and I love it! It's simple to use and the pictures come out great! I highly recommend it.

Very disappointed with Olympus. I own 2 other Olympus cameras and was very satisfied, bought this camera and after shooting several hundred exposures was not satisfied with results only about 25 % of shots were in focus. Contacted Olympus with my concerns, but they never returned my inquiry. Sent camera back to 17 Th Photo and purchased a Cannon S5 IS. 17 Th St Photo is an excellent retailer and the Cannon S5 IS, in my opinion is a much better camera.

Great camera! I've Had Several olympus cameras analog and digital. The 560 ultra zoom does it all. Just finished ordering a high speed memory card for this camera so I can take better action shots. This Camera is well worth the money.
