autofocus slr cameras

That "inner voice" told me that this was the camera I wanted. I checked it out in the stores. I liked the way it looked, I liked the way it felt. The fact that it was a 35mm SLR, and a good zoom was a must.
I checked prices on this camera EVERYWHERE. You will not find a better deal on this camera than here at Amazon.com!
So the incredible price sealed the deal.
It is so easy to use. It has an automatic feature that does it all for you, right down to the focus. Or all the settings for a professional.
BUT! I got my first pictures back today, and WOW!!!! The color is brilliant, the images sharp! We took pictures at the zoo, and they look like they came out of a magazine!
The only drawback is the size. It's a little heavy and bulky, but preserving my precious children's faces in such a quality photo.... I don't mind! I couldn't reccomend a better camera

I have been using this camera for two roles of film and must report complete satisfaction. I rated it 4 stars only due to its weight. At 23 oz. it is a bit heavy, but nothing to prevent me from hanging it on my neck for a few hours. Compared to a Canon Rebel or the Minolta Maxxum 4, I would highly recommend the iS-50. If you are buying an entry level SLR and expect to operate in auto mode most often, the Olympus is perfect. If you want something with more horsepower, expect to use manual or semi auto more often, are going to want additional lenses, then buy a Canon Elan or Maxxum ST. I simply wanted a good 35 mm auto SLR to take high quality pictures. The iS-50 is fit for purpose.

Although all the gadgets were a little overwhelming at first their instruction manual is very helpful and helped me not only with the camera but a little general photography. It would have been nice to get some batteries with it but if that's the only gripe I've got I'm pretty impressed.
