Olympus Camedia D-595

 

Good image quality. Low price.

Small LCD. Slow bootup. Some distortion on both ends of the zoom range.

The Olympus D-595 Zoom offers good image quality at a good price, but that's about it. If you want extras, you'll have to look elsewhere.

Good, not great

 

I will keep the camera, it was a good starter, but I will upgrade sometime in the near future definetly.

Camera is a little bulky, Very grainy pics at high ISO settings, taking video outside facing the sun produces purple vertical lines. Takes about 4 seconds to turn on. My friend tried to turn it on. He hit the button, but nothing happens for a second....
