Indestructible.......2007-01-01
When I first opened this case it made a little hissing sound like an airlock door opening. Well that's really how tight this thing seals. And I think it could take gunfire or being run over by a truck and not even dent. It opens like a clam shell one way. You fill it with cd's. Then you flip it over and open it like a clam shell the other way and fill it with cd's that way. They key is NOT to open it and spread it wide like an accordion. Then all the cd's on the bottom fall out. Trust me, this is not a big deal. You will only do it once. Then you will slap your own forehead for being so stupid and never do it again.

Amazon.com Product Description
If you're new to the world of digital photography, the Olympus D-580 offers just the right blend of easy-to-use features and high-quality optics that delivers vivid pictures. The D-580 Zoom has a durable polycarbonate body with an attractive metallic accent on its sliding protective clamshell lens barrier. It also features a 4-megapixel resolution, 3x optical zoom, movie mode with sound, a bright LCD monitor to review images, and Olympus's new TruePic Turbo image processor, which speeds up the camera's start-up, shutter lag, recording and playback time.
Optics and Resolution
The 4-megapixel D-580 captures 2288 x 1712 pixel images for prints up to 11 x 14 inches. It also has 1600 x 1200 (2MP) and 640 x 480 (VGA) resolution modes. It features a 3x optical zoom that, when combined with a 4x digital zoom, delivers a total seamless 12x zoom. The aspherical all-glass zoom lens is constructed of 7 lenses in 6 groups and has a focal length of 5.8-17.4mm (35-105mm equivalent in 35mm photography) and an aperture range of f3.1-f5.2.
Movie Mode and Audio
In addition to capturing still images, you can also shoot short videos with sound (its companion D-540 has no sound capabilities) at 15 frames per second (fps). The D-580 has two resolution modes: 320 x 240 and 160 x 120. The built-in microphone can also capture short memos that can be appended to each message
More Features
The D-580 is one of the first Olympus models to feature TruePic Turbo, a new image processor that sharpens image clarity, contrast, and color for life-like results. This feature also makes the camera 30% faster in processing images and is combined with a super-fast shutter release time.
The D-580 offers a menu architecture that's easy to navigate for fast access to the right settings with just the press of arrow buttons. Seven preset shooting modes can be accessed through the "Virtual Dial" (viewable through the LCD menu) to provide fully automatic exposure adjustments; these include Program Auto, Portrait, Portrait-Landscape, Landscape, Night Scene, Self Portrait, and Movie.
Other features include:
- 1.8-inch TFT color LCD monitor (approximately 85,000 pixels)
- Optical real-image viewfinder
- 1.5 frames per second burst up to 12 frames
- Built-in flash with auto, red-eye reduction, fill-in, and off modes
Direct Printing
The D-580 is PictBridge compatible, which enables you to transfer pictures from your digital camera to a compatible printer (such as the Olympus P-10), without a PC or image-editing software. All PictBridge devices share three basic features: camera-to-printer connecting, single-image printing, and uniform error messages (in case something goes wrong).
Storage and Transfer
Images are stored on XD Picture Card memory cards. The card's small size, about the same as a postage stamp, helps to keep the camera size down. The included 16 MB card will store approximately 16 images at 2288 x 1712 pixels (at HQ, JPEG setting). Images can be downloaded to either a Mac or PC via USB 1.1 connectivity, which means the camera can be connected to any USB-based Windows 98 Rev2Me/2000/XP and Mac OS 8.6 or later computer without installing any software.
Power and Size
The camera is powered by 2 AA batteries (alkalines included, NiMH rechargeable recommended) or 1 CR-V3 battery. It measures 4.3 x 2.3 x 1.4 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 5.8 ounces (excluding batteries and storage media).
What's in the Box
This package contains the Olympus D-580 digital camera, 16 MB XD Picture Card, USB cable, 2 AA alkaline batteries, wrist strap, quick-start guide, and instruction manual. The CD-ROM features Camedia Master software, Adobe Acrobat Reader and Camera Reference Manual.

Don't forget extra batteries!.......2007-04-24
The camera takes nice pictures but even with rechargeable batteries, they have to be replaced after about 20-25 pictures, maybe more depending on how often you open and close the camera. I always have to have extra batteries charged and with me because we never make it through an event without having to replace the batteries at least once, ofter more. Also, there is a long delay between pressing the shutter button and the actual taking of the picture. I have missed so may shots because of this!
Excellant Camera.......2007-01-10
This was my first digital camera & I am so happy I bought it. I have had it for two years & have taken several hundred photo's if not over a thousand with much satisfaction (I also get alot of compliments on my pictures). I am a scrapbooker & I take this camera with me wherever I go....it stays in my fanny pack unless I'm using it. I do not use the software that came with it as I already had Google's Picassa2 & was happy with that. I see many complaints have been made that this camera eats batteries. I buy Walgreen brand photo batteries & they last a long time. I will probably upgrade to a new camera this year but I will most likely buy another Olympus camera I think.
Great Camera!.......2006-12-26
I had this camera for about 2 years and I truly enjoyed using it. Great outdoor and indoor pictures. I was especially impressed with the indoor pictures as not that many cameras I owned or tried were able to take great bright pictures indoors. Beautiful, rich colors and very sharp images - it was hard to take a bad picture. It did use alot of batteries, but Rechargeable CR-V3 Li-ion batteries would make a great difference. The only problem was the sliding lens' cover that I think was the reason why my camera broke down. Or may be the batteries were running out of charge - but all over sudden it started bipping, the lens wouldn't come out and then the power would go off. I'm still giving it 5 stars because I was very happy with it and would recommend it to everyone.
Happy it's gone........2006-12-22
I bought a D580 because I had an earlier model Olympus digital camera that was OK and I thought that an upgrade would be an improvement. Picture quality was great with the 580, but hard to get what you shoot because of the l o n g shutter lag and the l o n g start up time, I really grew to HATE the cute little camera for those two reasons. I was using high mAh NIMH rechargeable batteries and had no complaint about battery life at all, just missed a lot of shots because the thing wasn't ready or because of the shutter lag. It does have a happy ending, on a boating trip in the Gulf of Mexico, I bumped the rail and the case with a velcro belt loop came loose and it got dumped in the Gulf, good riddance. I promptly bought a Fuji because it uses AA batteries and the other XD memory cards that I had, I'm now a happy camper.
The "Jaguar "of digitals cameras!.......2006-03-22
I own one of these. Bought it based on past Bought it based on previous Olympus film camera experience.
Big f-ing mistake! Kinda like buying a Jag; better buy two. So you have one to use while the other is in the shop for whatever is wrong with it this time.
Worked great, except for slowww shutter response while we were in Switzerland. Did I say slowwwwww?
It's been all down hill since then.
There seems to be an issue with the battery door, or contacts. When one opens the lens cover at times, the lense does not move out and the monitor does not illuminate. Great for Xmas 2005!
Open the battery door and close it...we're back in business!?#
Yes and no! Sometimes it does, other times, your screwed. NOTHING!
Also, the cards seem to have contact issues. My two 256 cards each had 20-40 pictures on them when alas, I turned on the camera to take a few family Xmas pictures and after getting no response from the camera before reloading the batteries, the first card came up with a format message! I changed cards, while everyone else was clicking away with their SONYS and NIKONS. The other card came up with the same damn message!
No xmas pix this year...Sh*t!!!
I have spoken to Olympus and they require $99.00 to make it seem new again and warranty for 6 months.
You should be aware, I treat my cameras and all of my possesions with the utmost care and respect. so this is not a note from someone who beat-up his camera and expected it to take it. If it costs mone I treat it like money.
The new Sonys and Nikons look pretty freak'n good about now.
