This review is from: Olympus Stylus 850SW 8MP Waterproof Digital Camera with Image Stabilized 3x Optical Zoom (Black) + Olympus M-2GB xD-Picture Card + USB Card Reader + Spare Li-42B Battery for Olympus + Compact Padded Camera Case (Electronics)

What made this so attractive was the package deal. The only problem is that the tri-pod is very small and the case can only fit the camera. I mean there is no room for all the other accessories in the case. So, all the stuff that comes with the kit has to find a separate home. So in my opinion the case is useless. The camera works fine no complaints. The rest of the accessories are pretty much worth the deal except for the mini SD card converter. Why the mini converter when the camera doesn't even use a mini card....anyway, this not exactly a slam dunk deal but I would say it's worth the price and it saved me having to buy several items separately.
