Nice camera good price on eBay. Smaller than the D-460/D-490, and lighter. Comes with USB plug in, but it will drain your batteries faster, so go with an inexpensive card reader, found on eBay, and save your batteries. It uses 2 batteries, so you will need back up batteries, as you will drain them faster. I like it and the other D series cameras, because of the built in lens cover. Nice feature. The picture cards a very available and cheap, so you can take a gazillion photos with out changing your card. NIMH Rechargable batteries with at least 2000mAh(are a must), Duracell works well and there are others just as good. You need a good reasonably fast battery charger and back up batteries like I mentioned earlier. You don't need anymore than 8 meg pixels , this one is 3.2 and the pictures are just as good as the mega pixel cameras in my view. 3X Zoom could be better,I didn't buy it for the ZOOM, it has a Video feature, which drains batteries very fast, so I don't use it. Olympus make a good point and shoot camera easy to use, fits in you pocket, and the price is right.Read full review
My first digital camera. I bought this one, over other brands, because of the slider lens cover. I looked at the other brands, like Sony, and Cannon, but really didn't like the style. As for ease of use, I rate this one to be among the easiest. I did try out brands whenever I was in WalMart, or other stores that carried other brands. The screen may seem small compared to other ones, of this time frame, but as for me, it was good enough. To turn the camera on, all you need to do is slide the lens cover. Which I think is a good safety feature, but not everyone will like this, as compared to other cameras out on the market. You can view what is stored, on the xd card, by just pushing the quick view button, and then pushing the left or right buttons. As for the movie feature, I have not used it. The battery compartment, and the xd card compartment, are in two seperate compartments, which, after seeing other cameras that put them both in the same compartment, I think that I prefer this style. I have heard other cameras that have had problems with the cover not closing properly, or that you could not get the card to lock into place, after the battery was installed, or vice versa. The one area that I have problems with is the zoom button. I don't like the placement. I think that it should had been put on the inside of the picture button, and not on the outside. I gave this an overall rating of good, because I don't think there will ever be an excellent camera, in order to satisfy, even just one person. If you ever get your hands on one of these, please give it a try. I think you will be surprised...Read full review
This camera takes great pictures. I also purchased a underwater housing & use it for scuba. Works GREAT. Camera takes 2 AA Batteries. Camera went through batteries like crazy & with flash I would only get a couple of pictures before the camera was flashing that battery was low. I then purchased the Energizer 2500 Nimh High Capacity Rechargable Batteries. I can take a lot of pictures with the flash now. I have just purchased Duracell 2650 & will be seeing if I get even more time. I wish they had mentioned this in their Owners Manual it would have saved me from purchasing a lot of extra batteries. I even tried Nimh 1900 capacity batteries at 1st this was also disapointing. I had another Olympus Camera & it used 4 AA batteries. This always seem to have battery power to spare.
This camera was given to me as a gift about two years ago. Since then I have taken it with me wherever I go traveling, hiking, or camping. This was the first camera I have ever had access to and I have deffinately used it for what it's worth. A new 512 MB memory card and some rechargable batteries are ideal for this camera. Nice photo quality and size. view some examples at www.joyouseye.com
I broke my D 560 and decided to get another so I luckily found one on E Bay. It takes very sharp pics (only 3.2 megapixels), surprising sensitive in low light, runs great on my lithium rechargeables. Perfect for snapshots. By today's standards, has been outdone my many newer models but used and cheap it's a great camera.
