A recent CNET newsletter (26 March) announced the following:
Olympus - SP-570 UZ
Olympus has combined the body of a compact point-and-shoot with the soul of
an SLR. This full-featured 10-megapixel camera offers 20x optical zoom, dual
image stabilization, full manual controls, face detection, and more. FROM:
$498.00.

Is this going to be an improvement on existing digital cameras of that genre
for recording bird sightings? Perhaps even prodding the 'biggies' like
Cannon and Nikon to improve their digital cameras in this genre?
