Takes great pictures! I love this camera.

 |
| This is the best pocket camera I have ever owned. It is easy to use and takes great pictures. Just slide back the lens cover and it's ready to shoot. Almost idiot-proof! |

Froze up at the worst possible moment
2000-02-05

| I purchased this camera in August of 98, and moved overseas. In January '99, my eighty-one year old father was riding on the back of an elephant in Thailand. When I went to take a shot of this once in a lifetime event, the camera lens froze in the out position and would not take a picture. A moment lost forever! Attempts to get the camera fixed overseas were futile, as they would not honor a US warranty. I sent several emails to Olympus asking some direction but received no response. Also, soon after we purchased this model, my husband and I stood side by side taking the same picture with this and a Samsung comparable model, both on automatic, and found the resulting pictures to have no noticeable difference. Due to the lack of email response by Olympus, I would hesitate to buy another, as this one was money down the drain. |

If you buy only one camera, this is the best

| I am an advanced photographer, worked at it professionally, and posess 8 high-end cameras with boxes of lenses, accessories, etc. I decided to try the Olympus as a "vacation camera" rather than hauling around camera cases stuffed with equipment. This jewel fits in a shirt pocket. We headed for the Pacific Northwest. As a test, I decided to leave all the settings on the camera in the default full automatic mode in order to test its capability in dealing with varying photographic situations. I was amazed. It handled backlight, sidelight, frontlight, full sun, overcast, fog, scenics, closeups, portraits, and anything else I could dream up and produced excellent prints of them all. Don't worry about tiny buttons; you will rarely use them. The important ones are full size buttons. I used only Kodak 800 MAX film with Kodak Premium processing, and could not be more pleased. The Olympus is the best "point and shoot" camera I have used. |

Not stainless steel, just looks it.

| The camera does most things well, but it isn't "stainless steel." Nearly all Olympus cameras are plastic bodied, and have finishes meant to resemble metal, leather, lacquered wood, etc. Other manufacturers offer metal-bodied cameras at substantially higher prices. Aside from that, the camera will be most useful for people who can adjust to small buttons and remember to cycle through the flash modes to select the right flash for the setting. It has good optics for a zoom-lens camera. Use a 400- or 800-speed film, and you'll get fine results. |

Exceptional Cameras
1998-12-18

| My wife and I began using the stylus series years ago - starting with the single focus. Since then, we have collected several, including two zooms. They are so good, we find ourselves leaving our full-size 35mm cameras at home. My hobby is birddog training, and you cannot beat them for ease of operation, picture quality, and dependability in the field. I have had the clamshell frozen shut from freeding rain, warmed it in my hand, and then snapped pictures that turned out exceptional. As the editor of "The Flushing Whip," the official publication of the National Red Setter Field Trial Association (NRSFTA), the majority of the pictures published are taken by our Olympus Stylus cameras. Get your hands on one and you will not be disappointed. Happy Hunting! |
