Great little camera

This is a fantastic little camera and I highly suggest you shoot some photos in the punk mode in the Majic heading. All the photos are sharp and great contrast. This is my 3rd Olympus camera. I began with their first digital SLR the E-300. Still works great then I bought the compact 1010 camera and still works and I gave it to my friend. This new camera is a true gem.

Awesome Camera

My girlfriend purchased this camera for me as a gift. I needed something compact to take to concerts that I attend. At the last show that I saw, I was very close to the stage and because of the lighting and movement of the artist I thought that I would have an issue. I was able to find the proper settings and take some great photos. I was really excited when I saw them. I plan to purchase a larger Olympus camera shortly. This camera rocks!

All but one of my shots were blurry

I was so excited to receive this camera in the mail. I put the battery inside the camera and immediately began testing it. I went outside to take pictures of my peach blossoms and noticed that when I zoomed in on a flower, the flower would stay blurry while the background was crystal clear! I tried several different types solutions (macro, micro, scene change, etc), and nothing worked! I started taking pictures of my dogs in broad daylight and they were coming out blurry! I also tried taking pictures with flash and they were blurry also. After reading all the reviews on this site, I was really looking forward to my camera. But I did a little research on sites such as Amazon and CNET and found that there were other users who had the same problem as me. I am so disappointed. And I’m sending it back for a full refund.

Great camera and awesome pics

PROS: Great build and awsome pics, great low light pics with zoom on. Battery last long time and awsome features.

CONS: Only one i have so far i not happy with the night shoot on camera it is set too low. Need to be able to set faster iso speeds.

Have this camera for about a week and love it. Awsome pics and features for a small light weight camera. Build quality is great being metal, easy to handle and use.
First time i have used an Olympus camera used to us Canon or Nikon would this camera is equal to both these brands,


Would defently recommed to a friend or someone looking for a great point and shoot with great zoom lenth camera.

I'm Very Happy

I bought this kind of last minute before going to Alaska. I knew the last time I wished I had a better zoom but did not want to pay a lot for a camera. The 10X zoom works very well and I was very pleased. It is easy to operate. The only negative is no VIEW FINDER. I had one on my last two cameras and I love them when in the sun. Could not find a camera with one without spending way to much money.

Beautiful Photos Taken With the Greatest of Ease

I bought this camera because of the zoom. Not only is the zoom great, but the ease in using this camera is phenomenal. I would recommend this camera to anyone. For the price, it would be hard to beat.
