I have one of these cameras and love it. People often forget to consider the audio capabilities of a camera, but the first time you take it to a concert, you will be rudely reminded:-)
si queres filmar un video, lo mejor es una canon, son muy buenas, tenes sonido stereo, podes hacer zoom mientras filmas, recomiendo la sx20 IS ... Particularmente tengo la sx10IS, pero lamentablemente no filma en HD... Saludos desde Argentina
@kungfurocker oh thanks! i found out also that the optical zoom also works during recording but you have to turn off the sound recorder!! dam!! oh well better than nothing!
hey i want to buy this camera but i am not sure about the AA batteries? Until now i was using cameras with Li-on rechargable batteries... Do the batteries of this camera last for long time or i have to charge them occasionaly?
@SAYMYNAM386 Frankly no, I wouldn't recommend any of the Olympus UZ series. You'd be much happier with something like the Canon SX20 or Panasonic FZ35.
Also, is it just me or does the camera take grainy photos/videos when it's in low light? I find that sad because my cheap $80.00 camera takes great night shots and videos but isn't as nearly as clear in the light compared to SP-600's..
@zalievac Yes Olympus has gr8 sound recording , and the image quality for this paticular camera could be the 24 fps 720p that records , it's not that clear in movement situations
@couturexlove1 You have to go into the shooting menu and then scroll down to the white balance option. I no longer have the camera in front of me so I can't be sure, but the white balance options will be a list of icons with sun, clouds, flash, and lightbulbs.
ist´s good...but whre is the bass?

Everyone is saying different things, can you zoom while taking videos or not?
If NOT, can you zoom whilst on normal settings, and then start taking a video? And will it stay zoomed? Thanks in advance

@bobharris77 So, what do you do about audio when doing video on this camera? Is their a place to plug in a mic or something?

@Prophecy23JC Like most cameras, this one has a built in microphone.
bobharris77 1 year ago
@bobharris77 Lol. I know that. You implied that the microphone isn't good and you are rudely reminded. So, I wondered if you used something else.
Prophecy23JC 1 year ago
@Prophecy23JC I think you misunderstood me. I was saying the microphone is excellent but most people don't consider that when they choose a camera.
bobharris77 1 year ago
@bobharris77 Oh, cool. And, you were saying in other cameras they are rudely reminded. Gotcha. Well, thats good to know.

how come my camera makes everyone look orange?
couturexlove1 1 year ago
@couturexlove1 It could be that you have the wrong white balance set, or auto ISO isn't good enough to compensate.

@chrswggl Thanks for responding. How would I change the white balance? I might be changing the wrong setting..thanks in advance!
