I recently purchased this wonderful mini-camera and have shot 2 rolls of film so far. I wanted a small camera that had big-camera features. It has an easy-to-use telephoto lens and accurate viewfinder. The APS film make it practically fool-proof. You drop in the film, wait for the camera to load, then you're ready to take pictures. It is so light (about 10 oz.) that you can easily wear it around your neck with the included neckstrap and be ready whenever you need it. I still have my 35mm camera but I wanted the ease and spontaneity of a palm-sized camera so I could catch all the precious pictures of my little 1 year old granddaughter. This camera fits that description perfectly. I love it.

I purchased the Olympus iZoom 2000 to carry with me to catch those fleeting moments when you wish you had a camera. Overall quality is very good. Picture quality is fine, if not up to 35mm standards. One minor complaint is that the camera is normally in flash mode. You have to push a button twice to turn off the flash. Also - for photo enthusiasts - there is no data visible on the camera's settings for a given photo and no manual overrides. All in all, however, a nice package.

The Olympus iZoom 2000 looks great- sleek, small, light and silver. Judging by the price I thought this would be a good camera, and small enough to take anywhere. Unfortunately I found out the hard way that this camera is by no means perfect. Every picture I have taken with this camera came out grainy and low quality, much worse than my cheaper Minolta Freedom camera I had before. Also, the viewfinder is tiny when you look through it so you can hardly see what you're taking a picture of... I asked a few other people about this, so it's not just me. It's also confusing to control the flash, etc. This camera is NOT WORTH IT, go for a higher quality Olympus or a Canon Elph if you want a compact camera that takes quality pictures. Dont waste your money on this one!

I luv the looks & compactness. But the pixs were grainy and very dissapointing.

I shot pixs on a clear & bright day on the beach and it looked like it was unfocused.

OVerall build quality is good. Easy instruction and ease of APS. But I expected more picture quality. It makes me long for 35mm.

The 2 stars are for looks only!

I have bought this camera for Christmas as a present and to my surprise it did not work when we opened the Christmas presents. I returned it and bought another one just like it. This second one was a dissapointment as well; the zoom lens would never work and it would constantly shut off by itself. I would not recommend anybody to buy this camera. IT'S AWFUL!!

I've had this camera for 1 year and very pleased with the pictures it takes. Two vacations, a brand new baby girl and the expensive 35mm camera is collecting dust. Side by side with the elph, 35mm Olympus and 35mm Cannon this camera's pictures compare. It's so small and light you have to take it with you. Much lighter than the elph and easy to use. Two negatives, the buttons are small and the zoom is noisy.
