5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Camera for Average User, November 26, 2005

By	Kieran Sutherland "suthersk" (Miami) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This camera works like a dream. Would recommend it for the average person who wants a good camera for family, vacation photos etc. Takes very good indoor flash photos. Colors and resolution are excellent.

Has a good feel and easy operation. Lens retracts and lens cover closes when you turn it off.

At 4 megapixels you get more than enough resolution for 8 X 10 blowups.

Uses "XD" format picture (memory) cards. Would recommend you buy the 256 MB card or a 512 MB for a few more bucks. I purchased a Fuji 256 MB card and it works fine. Holds about 260 photos.

Can use two ordinary "AA" alkaline batteries. However would recommend the NiMh rechargeable batteries. Bought the Energizer 15 minute charger from Amazon which comes with four Energizer "AA" NiMh batteries. Long lasting batteries and most pleased. I shot a whole day of photos including many flash ones and did not have to replace them 'till late at night. Great charger and batteries. It's at:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000DIIAS/103-2880875-1151054?v=glance&n=172282&n=507846&s=electronics&v=glance

As with any camera, a case for it is advisable. But buy a case at Circuity City or BestBuy rather than online. That way you can walk with your camera and see how it actually fits into the case and how much stuff you want the case to hold e.g. spare batteries , charger etc.

All in all, a good reliable product. Congrats to Olympus.

If you buy it, you wont be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Camera, October 31, 2005

By	Benjamin Britton "~BB" (Colorado, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

[...]

Pros: A good camera for all users. Good picture quality and easy to transfer to your PC (if you use software other than whats provided).

Megapixels. 4.0!

Movies!!! Record movies in quicktime .avi format! A+ (no sound though)

It's a good name brand, with great reviews in computer magazines and on many electronic sites. A sturdy quality camera worth buying (for the right price).

It gets four stars for a couple of reasons...

Cons: The software it comes with isn't really user friendly. I thought picassa [...] was much easier and had more features.

Next, some of the features are spelled out in the user manual. For extreme up close pictures, like you would do for selling items on online, the up close function isn't spelled out... you have to play with your camera to figure it out. (If you buy it, there's a circle button with 4 arrows in it, push it to the right for up close pics).

Also, the zoom isn't as good as it could be... 2.8X telescopic (good quality), plus another 5X digital (which is poor quality). But unless you're a professional photographer, this should do for the average joe.

Lastly, if you're not carefull, you'll lose battery life quickly. It's easy to set it down and forget it, and it goes into a standby mode which still uses battery life. If you forget, it may cost you battery life.

Overall: The con's really are minor compared to the cost to quality benefit you get from this camera... it has more megapixels than many higher cost competitors, but it sacrifices in the zoom, 2.8X.

This is a great camera for anyone to have, great for users of all levels.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unacceptably slow shutter, January 27, 2006

By	Brad S. Williams (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I ordered this based on good reviews here and low price, and because my much older Olympus had been stolen. But after trying it for less than 5 minutes it was back in the box to be returned, even though I burn thirty bucks on the return. This camera makes the cardinal sin of having an enormous (2 to 2.5 second) delay between (a) when you press the button and (b) actually taking the picture. In this respect this camera is slower than my phone camera, and even slower than the 4-year-old 2.1M Olympus I had, amazingly. If you are taking pictures of people who are moving (i.e. anybody who is not posing), and you are trying to capture the moment, this mis-feature will be frustrating for the life of the camera. I'm really puzzled why people would like this camera, unless they are mostly taking pictures of scenery or of people posing.
