I bought one for my husband and I liked it when I was playing with it for a while to set everything up for his needs.... so I bought another one for myself. I really like the selection of the colors and the camera itself is very easy to use. One thing I didn't realize until purchasing this camera was the memory card needed for. This camera has to have a XD card and it's not SD card that most camera uses. If you own SD card already and not planning to purchase another kind, this camera might not be the right choice but even if buying a new card, price is still be very attractive.

I had this camera in red and it was recently stolen in a home burglary, so I am looking to replace it asap. I'm not even looking at other brands or models. I am amazed at how the price has dropped since my original purchase, especially if I choose a different color (red is oddly more expensive than the other colors). I took some grainy video when I first got the camera, but after tweaking the settings, it worked very well for me for both video and still-shots. It's easy to use, the menu system is intuitive, and the pics were turning out great for me. It's also compact enough to slip into my purse or pocket.

This review is from: Olympus FE-340 8MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom (Pink) (Electronics)

I bought this camera a little over a year ago and liked it so much, I went back to the shop and bought another one for my daughter. However it is now 13.5 months later and the camera, one month out of warranty, stopped working. Specifically, the little button that turns on the power jammed and it will not turn on at all. The local Olympus dealership wants more than the camera cost originally to fix it - he says it is a short in the on off switch. The camera cost $225 last year and had a lot of nice features but the quality of the workmanship is so poor (despite being a Japanese camera, it is actually made in Vietnam) that I would not buy any other Olympus product after my experience.
