Not really worth it. Olympus simply cannot compete with the Panasonic, Canon, and Sony cameras on image quality, nor can they compete on features. The Olympus produces very mediocre images and lacks essential features like:
-Optical IS (the Olympus has Digital IS which just bumps up ISO and makes your images look like crap)
-Wide angle lens (the Olympus starts at 36mm, competitors start as low as 30 or 32mm). Zoom range on the Olympus is only 3x, compared to 5x for the Panasonics.
-Low quality LCD screen. The Panasonic models have screens with 230,000 dots of resolution (320x240).
-No manual exposure mode (found on the Panasonic and Canon).
Basically, look for good deals on one of the cameras I mentioned above. They should cost about the same (save for the LZ10 which is around $150). You'll get many more useful features and better image quality as well.
