Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Olympus IS-500 QD All-in-One AF SLR 35 mm Camera with 4.3x Zoom Lens
Customer Review: love this camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this camera for a couple of years now and I still love it.
The quality of pictures is outstanding. It does help to know how to use a 35mm film camera when using the program and manual settings, but if you don't have that experience, there's always "full auto." I used this camera to take photos of a birds and other subjects. The lens quality is typical of olympus' outstanding standards.
It is a bit bulky, but it is also a beautiful and sleek looking camera. In this age of digital photography, it's good to still get and keep a hands on knowledge of 35mm photography. The twin flash system allows for great exposures.
I still have my original OM-10, E-volt 510 and my IS-500 as well as a Canon XTI and powershot SX120 IS. The digitals are fine for immediate viewing of the photos, but if you learn how to use an old fashioned 35mm, you'll excel in digital photography.
This is a great camera.
