Well, as some people know, my camera died a month ago. I took it in to the store and got an estimate to fix it... $190... which is more than I paid for the thing! Anyways I'm looking into getting a newer model from RefurbDepot, the Olympus D510... my only complaint about the specs is that it's aperture is roughly 2-4... my old camera was 2-11, giving me nice crisp images, so I'm afraid this one wouldn't give as sharp images. (although the low-light end will still be fine.) The camera comes with sharpening digital filters in the camera, but still... nothing beats optical :) (and this one does have an optical zoom which my old cam didn't.)

Any comments? (And to all you 460L/490 users.. this is the same aperture settings as those cameras, so feedback on sharpness would be useful. Of course current users of the 510 can tell me their thoughts too :D)
