Great camera for value
By J Sae
I own 2 other cameras a Nikon Coolpix point and shoot 12MP and a 15.1 Rebel T2i DSLR.

For a 200 dollar camera, it really isn’t all too bad. 14MP and 5x optical zoom. Lens[ 4.7-23.5mm 1:2.8-6.5 ]

OVERALL feeling: (4.8 of 5)
It has pretty clear picture taking capabilites and is very USER FRIENDLY. Panaramic function works amazingly well. The camera itself is a great size and looks pretty slick, it doesn’t look like a cheap camera. I think anyone would be happy with this purchase. It has a HDMI port and can take SDHC memory cards. You charge the camera battery with the battery in the camera, and the power cord is plugged into the camera itself, that is a nice feature, to not have to pull the battery out all the time to charge(like the coolpix i have). The buttons light up when touched momentarily and the camera has a nice power save option; all nice features.

HD VIDEO: (4.8 of 5) Not too shabby, volume is a little low, but im pretty sure there is a speaker option. I noticed it today. It definitely is always a nice feature to be able to capture video, in High Def no less. Only downside is that you can’t take pictures while video recording, i like that option on my DSLR.

Lighting: (4.3 of 5) you have a few different options depending on location: sunny, cloudy, what type of indoor lighting i.e 3 different flourescent settings and 1 incandescent. Weird thing is cloudy works better indoors under flourescent light better than all the flourescent settings. Very slight exageration of the yellow hue. Cloudy whittens things up and makes the room look as if it were under regular incandescent bulb lights. All in all, you can place it on WB auto, and the setting the camera auto selects works better than fine.

I am quite satisfied and feel anyone else would be as well..and i spent 250 buying from an overpriced Postal Exchange lol.

Near perfect
By Old Jim in TX
I have used cameras of one type or another for close to 50 years. Had my own darkroom back in the days of film. Have had digital models since 1M was as big as they got. Wanted a small one to carry around. Cell phone cam is just too much trouble and too limited.

Read all the reviews for all the small Olympus, Cannon, Panasonic, et al. Used my girlfriend’s Cannon. Decided that since an old Olympus E100RS Sports Photographers model was the best I have EVER used I would stay with the brand.

I love this little thing! It is hard to hold still on long tele shots and I doubt I will ever get used to not having a viewfinder but I still love it. Have used it in Program mode mostly and played with some programed Scene shooting. Love the Super Macro best of all. Have some great close ups of my honeybees.

Does everything it is supposed to and does it well. People who have had problems using it just didn’t Read The F****** Manual. I downloaded the manual from Olympus’s web page as soon as I ordered the camera. I enjoyed reading about it while I waited for it. Didn’t wait long. Amazon got it to me in record time. Ordered late Monday, used free delivery, still had it on Friday. Thanks Amazon!

I don’t like the software that came with it. Uninstalled it on day two.

Good results for a fair price
By S. J. Bennett
This camera takes mainly good photos straight out of the box. There’s no real need to play with the settings which I like. My main use for this camera is photographing people, and I preferred using the standard Auto setting as opposed to the portrait scene setting – in portrait, the pictures were mostly a little too pink. The standard auto setting reproduces skin tones nicely. It does seem to be a little soft on detail indoors though – you can’t really tell it’s 14mp unless you’re outdoors on a sunny day.

One gripe is the processing speed – even with a quick card, after you take a photo it takes a good 8 seconds before the camera is ready to take another one. That’s annoying if you just missed ‘the’ shot, and then the next opportunity happens while you’re waiting for the camera to sort itself out.

The video quality could also be better – especially on the sound front, and it suffers badly from over exposure in sunny outdoor settings. So don’t buy this camera if you’re looking for the best of both worlds, but if you just want good pictures for a reasonable price this is a contender.
