Product Description:
Camedia D-510 Zoom gives you all the freedom - or control - you need in an easy-to-use, take-anywhere digital camera. This 2.1 megapixel camera shoots great photos with its 3x optical zoom while its 9x digital zoom brings you closer to the action for even greater detail. Its Auto Connect USB feature makes downloading your images to a computer a cinch so all you have to do is drag and drop and your photos are visible for you, and anyone else, to admire. If you decide you simply want to print your photos, you can insert the D-510's removable SmartMedia card into an Olympus P-400, P-200 or P-330 printer and receive high-quality output in a matter of minutes. There's even the included QuickTime movie mode so you can record those can't-miss moments in video as well.D-510 Zoom features a sleek and ultra-compact body, and easy to use controls. It has Olympus 5.4mm - 16.2mm f2.8 - f.5.6 (wide) f4.4 - f8 (tele) aspherical glass lens (equivalent to 35mm - 105mm on a 35mm camera). Built-in flash modes let you decide how your pictures should look. They include: auto (low- and backlight), red-eye reduction, fill-in (forced on), forced off, slow shutter synchronization (first curtain), and slow shutter synchronization (first curtain) with red-eye reduction.

Amazon.com Product Description:
The basics of the Olympus Camedia D-510 break down pretty easily: 2-megapixel resolution; 3x optical zoom lens with autofocus, built-in flash with red-eye reduction, fill, and slow-syncro modes; and a 1.8-inch LCD screen. There are also some more advanced features to go along with this baseline functionality. Particularly useful is the burst mode, which allows shooting of up to two frames per second. Also, a QuickTime movie mode lets you capture up to 66 seconds of footage. There are a number of special effects, including monochrome, sepia, and re-size. Images are generally captured as JPEGs, but you can also choose to use the uncompressed TIFF mode.

Most digital cameras ship with a USB or serial port, and with a set of software drivers that allow you to download your pictures to your computer via an image-editing program. Olympus has gone one step farther, and essentially built the functionality of a USB card-reader into their digital cameras. What this means is that for the newer versions of Windows and the Mac OS, you don't need to install extra software. Simply plug the camera into your computer, which recognizes the camera as a removable drive. You are then free to drag-and-drop your pictures wherever you like.

Power requirements are standard at four AA, or two CR-V3 lithium batteries. The D-510 uses SmartMedia cards, and ships with an 8 MB card.

- Best of the Bunch
This review about an older camera is to help those who still have their D510, help those who may be looking for a very good used or refurbed older digital as an entry into digital photography without spending alot, and to debunk some of the bunk you will find in comments here due to not reading the full manual on CD. The printed Manual, which would be the one a reader would start with, is close to USELESS. Don't stop with this one. It does not do this great camera justice.

- Versatile Camera
I've used mine for two years so far and gotten alot of mileage out of it. What I really love is that it doesn't require special software to download pictures. When we go to visit, we can just plug in the camera with the USB cable, treat it as a removable disc, and transfer our pictures to our hosts computer before we leave. One downside is that the viewfinder doesn't quite frame the picture accurately. For close-ups, I have to turn on the LED screen or I cut off half of the face...

- A Real Battery Hog
This camera has served me well and takes beautiful pictures. However I spend so much on batteries. Have tried regular, heavy duty, and alkaline and none last. If I don't take batteries out after each use, they won't last overnight. If one buys this superb camera he might want to use an adapter rather than rely on batteries (unless he has won the lottery).

- The green of nature is missing from the pictures.
This camera is good overall except 2 major issues I discovered. First, the colors of outdoor shots were not accurate most of the time, specially the trees and grasses never looked as green in the pictures as in real world. I believe this is a major defect. (Another reviewer also mentioned the same problem.) Second problem is the long shutter delay. You will not be able to catch the best moments in life.

I will not buy another Olympus digital camera unless I am convinced they fixed such defects.

- excellent camera
i really like my d-510, close-ups are beautiful, it performs extremely well - although the 'panorama' feature simply does not work anymore on my relatively new camera

i do not like the sliding lens cover or the wait between shots or only being able to view pics when camera is shut

i wish it recorded sound with the quicktime movie feature
