Generally, some of the advantages of the Kodak V570 compared to super zoom competitors include: it is slightly smaller (super compact (101×50×20 mm) vs professional size (123×84×98 mm)), is thinner (0.8" vs 3.9") and is slightly lighter (175 g vs 494 g).
However, on average it has a significantly narrower aperture (f/3.9 vs f/3), has a much narrower wide angle lens (39 mm vs 24 mm), has a much smaller screen (2.5" vs 3"), has a much lower resolution screen (230k dots vs 921k dots) and doesn't have image stabilization (none vs lens).
