From the Manufacturer Olympus has given the SP-570 UZ the worlds most powerful ultra zoom digital camera an extreme makeover by creating the new SP-565 Ultra Zoom, a smaller and lighter version with the same amazing precision-crafted 20x wide-angle telephoto zoom lens (26-520mm equivalent), but the ease-of-use of a point-and-shoot camera. Photographers searching for an even more portable and approachable ultra zoom to take anywhere will rejoice in the cameras new form factor, and with 10 million pixels and Dual Image Stabilization delivering superior, virtually blur-free images, the SP-565 UZ is proof that good things do come in small packages. The cameras enhanced Face Detection can now track up to 16 faces within the frame and optimize exposure even when subjects are moving, ensuring that family reunion group portraits will come out well-focused. In addition, the SP-565 UZ ensures sharp, brilliant images with a host of other features: Dual Image Stabilization combines the benefits of Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization and Digital Image Stabilization to compensate for both camera shake and moving subjects, helping to create beautiful, virtually blur-free images in any situation; Shadow Adjustment Technology enables users to preview and capture images as the human eye sees them, compensating for difficult lighting situations and maintaining detail in highlights while improving detail in the shadows to produce more balanced photos; and Perfect Shot Preview takes the guesswork out of great photography by allowing users to preview and select various photographic effects live on the LCD screen, before snapping the shot. SP-565UZ Highlights Lightening the Lens Load Lugging a bag full of lenses can slow traveling photographers down, so the SP-565 UZ comes fully equipped with the equivalent of three lenses in one complete camera. The bright, f2.8-4.5 lens provides the equivalent of 26-520mm focal length with 100x total seamless zoom (5x digital zoom). By using the toggle lever with one finger, users can get close to the action with the versatile yet compact 20x super telephoto zoom, while the wide-angle (26mm) lens captures more of the subject in each frame. Its super-macro capabilities capture the subtlest details from as close as one centimeter. The compact lens construction combines aspherical and extra-dispersion (ED) lens elements to deliver edge-to-edge sharpness and clarity. Whether youre hiking through the mountains or shooting a tennis match, this sturdy compact body with wide-angle and telephoto lenses provide the versatility to get the job done. Dual Image Stabilization Dual Image Stabilization enables users to take crisp, clear pictures in virtually any shooting situation adjusting for camera shake and a moving subject. Olympus mechanical Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization keeps images sharp by adjusting the CCD to compensate for camera shake, which often occurs when zooming in on your subject and in low-light conditions when shutter speeds are slower. Digital Image Stabilization freezes the action with high ISO sensitivity and fast shutter speeds that help to prevent blur caused by a moving subject. Face Detection Face Detection tracks up to 16 faces within the frame and automatically focuses (Face Detection AF) and optimizes exposure (Face Detection AE) quickly for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures. Now, your subjects face is in focus whether it is in the center of the target area or not. Manual Controls The Manual, Aperture Priority and Shutter Speed Priority modes give users versatility and control for optimal performance in any situation. Users can express their creative vision adjusting the f-stop for detailed portraits with softened backgrounds, or slowing the exposure speed to create the blurred effect of motion, or just sit back and let the camera do the thinking through the use of the automatic settings. High-Speed Sequential Shooting and Pre-Capture The SP-565 UZ is capable of capturing images at an incredible 13.5 frames per second (with a reduced image size of 3 megapixels). The inclusion of Pre-Capture technology, which works in conjunction with High-Speed Sequential Shooting, enables users to capture the action before and after fully pressing the shutter button. Pre-Capture begins working as soon as the focus is locked, automatically archiving 10 frames in the cameras buffer memory prior to the shutter release virtually guaranteeing that none of the action will be missed even if the users reaction time is slow. Perfect for situations where timing is essential, such as photographing a tennis player serving, children playing or a whale breaching. Shadow Adjustment Technology Shooting outdoors in bright daylight can be tricky because of the extreme contrast between dark shadowed areas and bright sunlight areas. While the human eye is capable of detecting the nuances between dark and light and all the details in between, image sensors traditionally have not been quite as sensitive. The SP-565 UZ addresses this challenge head-on with a new Shadow Adjustment Technology, which compensates for extreme contrast where the shadow areas are underexposed and lack visible detail. With the new technology, users can preview and capture images that have the same contrast as seen with the naked eye. Perfect Shot Preview The SP-565 UZ features a Perfect Shot Preview mode that enables users to preview and select various photographic effects (such as zoom, exposure compensation, white balance and metering) on a live, multi-window screen before snapping the shot. Perfect Shot Preview enables users to see precisely what the image will look like when adjustments are made, ensuring users are capturing the exact image they want. It is an ideal way for novice users to learn about the effects of different photography techniques. Perfect Fix In-Camera Editing Olympus Perfect Fix feature offers quick solutions for unanticipated image quality issues, which may be caused by several adverse conditions. Lighting Fix can be used to adjust any underexposed areas and Red-Eye Fix can be used to reduce the effects of red-eye sometimes caused by a direct flash. Additional in-camera editing functions can be quickly accessed right in the camera by the touch of a button; features available include resizing, trimming, black and white, and sepia. TruePic III Image Processor Olympus enhanced TruePic III Image Processor produces crystal clear photos using all the pixel information for each image to deliver superior picture quality with more accurate colors, true-to-life flesh tones and faster processing speeds. TruePic III also captures sharp images at high ISO settings, which are traditionally associated with increasing image noise or producing grainy photos. 33 Shooting Modes Including Multi-Fireworks The SP-565 UZ makes it easy to take great photos in a variety of scenarios and lighting situations with 33 shooting modes, including a Multi-Fireworks mode. To capture the most stunning fireworks displays, this multi-exposure feature overlays the fireworks to create the memory of a lifetime. To activate any of the cameras pre-set modes, simply select the desired mode for portraits, landscapes, night scenes, fast-action and more. Versatile Memory All Olympus digital point-and-shoot cameras accept xD-Picture Card media. The SP-565 UZ will also come equipped with an adapter, which will enable microSD memory cards to be used when capturing images. The microSD cards are emerging in consumer electronic devices, including mobile phones and PDAs. Users can also easily display photos on their HDTVs. Olympus Master 2 Software Olympus Master 2 software provides the ultimate in digital imaging management. An intuitive user interface makes downloading to your computer quick and simple, and images are easily organized by folders or albums and searchable by date in Calendar view. Also, with one-click editing tools, such as red-eye removal, images can be touched up before printing or e-mailing. Online support, templates, firmware upgrades and other user services are just a mouse-click away. Use the optional muvee Theater Pack to create professional quality slide shows and DVDs from your pictures using any of several built-in templates.

Olympus SP-565UZ 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Optical Dual Image Stabilized Zoom

• La tapa del lente se sale en forma permanente. No tiene un modo de ajuste dejando al lente sin proteccion.Luego, estando guardada en su bolso, al extraerla y habiendola guardado apagada y con la tapa del lente puesto, la encontre encendida y con su lente expandido.Busque si tenia una forma de seguridad para el apagado/encendido pero no lo halle. No hay forma de evitar el encendido accidental de la maquina.Creo que ambos detalles descriptos contituyen problemas y determinan serias falencias en una maquina que, por otra parte, tiene multiples funciones y prestaciones mediante las cuales se aspira a posicionarla en un alto nivel en el mercado de las maquinas compactas, careciendo de dos detalles aparentemente menores pero que en absoluto lo son.Le agradeceria que me ofrezca una solucion a ambos problemas o adonde debo recurrir para ello.
• Just got this camera recently but here is my initial take. Ideally I\'d like to have a camera that can take intelligent pictures without much guess when in auto mode. Some of my pictures in auto mode will come out nice and others will come out blurry, even in good light conditions. Any settings saved in auto mode or scn mode are reset just by changing modes or turning off the camera. So if you don\'t want to use iESP and want to use spot focus instead, you have to keep resetting it each time. Settings will only be saved in P, A, S, M or video modes. Macros come out really nice. Zoom is great, but can loose focus in auto mode especially if zoomed to the max. The evf switches to lcd screen after each shot, so you have to watch it on the screen after each shot and not on the evf. When switching between scene modes, you have to go through lots of buttons and you cant see how the image looks through the lens, instead you see the built in images representing each mode and then it switches to a text description for each mode. I miss having the scenes on the dial and to be able to see the images as they appear while going through each scene. The feel and the construction of the camera is excellent. If Olympus can just work on their user interface and the auto intelligent mode, this camera can rock. Sometimes when you have to take a quick shot, you want to rely on the auto mode.
• I just got this camera and first of all I\'ll say that the olympus 565uz requires you to put some effort into learning its features, but right off the bat in scene mode you can take awesome pictures. The 33 stored scene modes really give you a wide array of settings so that you can just point and click in most situations.The ability to manually change every last little detail is awesome though because there are going to be situations where the picture is just not right, but rest assured you can make it right with this camera. Just takes some learning and playing with manual settings.The pictures are very crisp, detailed, and the colors are amazing. Also I\'ve had a lot of success with night shots. I\'m amazed at how it pulls the light out of anything it can and takes a real good shot.The zoom is very nice as well. At full zoom I\'d say you can get a real nice shot at about 200 yards. 100 - 150 yards the thing you are taking a picture of looks like its pretty close with a good amount of detail. I have not tried shots beyond 200 yards yet, but as I said you still get a pretty nice picture with an OK amount of detail at that distance. Plus beyond the 20x zoom you can do a 5x digital zoom within that picture. The only thing I will say about 100% zoomed is that it requires the lighting and situations to be pretty good otherwise you\'ll get blurred images. Like if you are trying to take a picture of a deer that is 200 yards from you but there is another one that is only 100 yards from you right in the line of sight the focus of the 100 yards will blur the 200 a bit.But for the price it\'s pretty dang good at a distance.Other than that I\'ll say I love the panorama feature. It takes a picture then lines it up on either side so you can pan the camera line it up and take the next picture. Comes out awesome.Also the built in flash is very good. Exactly what you\'d expect.There are cons thoughThe first is that it takes xD card max 2GB so you\'ll have to buy a couple of them because 10mp pictures are not small.The second is the LCD is sort of small, but the overall camera is very compact which is great for carrying and traveling, but with that feature you lose LCD screen space.The third is that it doesn\'t use mini-usb chord to connect to the computer. It resembles a mini-usb very much, but its a proprietary thing that you\'ll have to not lose. Seems I have a mini-usb with me no matter what I\'m doing so this is sort of a pain because now I have to remember to grab this specific cable.The fourth is that it uses AA batteries to run. Some might think this is not a con because you can get AA batteries no matter where you are, but I don\'t like it because charging is not quite as easy. Though there are battery charges for AA batteries that you can plug into your car. So it\'s not that big of a deal.I consider the cons external though in that you can work around them easily where as internally the camera functionality is top notch at this price.
