I have the Olympus SP 570UZ (20 x optical) and a 1.4 zoom lens from my last camera. I love it! It seems to have a lot more capabilities then most of the point & shoot without the high lens costs of SLRs. I found I can use filters on my lens adaptor tube too.

I have SP-510 UZ - 10x zoom only, but for me it's enough. is quality at 20x is all right?

I have the 570UZ as my travel P&S and the 20x optical zoom is pretty impressive even without a tripod!

I have the SP-550 UZ. It works GREAT! For a p&s it sure has a lot of the DSLR features without the DSLR $$. 18X digital zoom , 7.1 MP
