@ploeg8393: Why is that? I've heard they're like a DSLR, minus the viewfinder, but compact! I've heard of the slow focusing, but Olympus released a firmware update that fixes that.
Been thinking about getting one...
Here are 2 actual reviews for those who need more than a one liner from @ploeg8393. Both say it's a decent camera.
awesome camera, just bought 2 of them
I got the same camera from them through buy.com, and I will say that this is a fantastic deal. Given the cost, you could buy a point and shoot. Or this camera with a much larger sensor and better low light performance. And the ability to change lenses down the line as well.
