 great until it broke October 4, 2008
Debbie Bennett (cal)
Well i brought my camera for taking pictures of me surfing. i read the booklet and made surf it would be okay in the conditions. The first day i shoot night shoot of some friends for 45 minutes. the following day i was shooting some friend in small surf when the camera failed and was broken. im very disappointed. 300$ for a camera that breaks in the first 2 days.
 Useless in poor light conditions October 4, 2008
Ola E. Strandberg (Irvine, CA USA)
My son came home from a school trip with my Canon Ixy 10 (bought in Japan, called Ixus 70 in Europe) dead after dropping it or carrying it in his pocket or whatever. So, I decided on getting a camera that could take rough handling. I had a Pentax Optio WP a few years ago, so I knew that underwater photography is a lot of fun.
This camera is a sturdy piece. It feels MUCH heavier than other cameras of its size, which I can live with, given that you can drop it and all. Its programs are user friendly, the software that comes with it is OK and it takes decent pictures outside, but... Don't even bother inside or in poor light conditions.
Sorry Olympus, but you don't come close to my old (lighter, cheaper but much frailer) Canon in any respect. The screen is not as clear and distinct as the Canon screen either. If all you need is a waterproof camera, go for Pentax.

Tough Camera October 1, 2008
Capt. CJ Lozon (Sarnia, ON)
I decided to purchase this particular camera for the shock + waterproof feature. I do a lot of backpacking/traveling. I wanted something that was small and durable, yet still had good photo quality. I love the waterproof feature for around the beach or on the boat. Shockproof is good and I have tested it a couple of times accidentally. I am still learning to use all the features. My first trip using this camera was a couple week backpacking tour around the UK. Photos were good for the most part. The waterproof feature certainly came in handy as it poured rain most days. The menus are easy to navigate. My only real complaint is the positioning of the lens. You will find you get many shots with fingers in the corner. Overall I am pleased, It is exactly the rugged, small camera I was looking for. Price was excellent compared to other websites, and the shipping was fast.
Good All Around September 30, 2008

I bought this camera primarily for its waterproof, dustproof, and almost indestructible make. Let's make it clear that I am no professional photographer, but I do see some problems with this camera which would easily make me replace it for something else.
The 10 megapixels made it an ever better deal since you can enjoy your pictures up on a big screen, but here is the biggest problem with this stylus. The images don't look quite as nice as you would expect from a 10 megapixel camera. Some appear really grainy, others too dark or washed, and others have chromatic aberrations. I have minimized all of these by tweaking some of the setting in the camera, and have found that the auto setting is only good up to a certain point. Also, higher isos reveal very grainy and washed-out pictures - setting it at 200 and 400 have given me near perfect shots. Sometimes I don't feel comfortable switching it around according to the lighting, so I just go with the preset modes - and there are a whole lot of them which also give very good images.
While the picture quality was really upsetting at first, once I went snorkeling my doubts about the Stylus 1030 SW completely dispersed. This camera goes where no other can go, and the pictures and movies underwater made for some good time.
I definitely recommend it if you're looking for something fun, durable and with good picture quality. However, if you're looking for great picture quality then you're better off going with other models or even an expensive SLR.
* This stylus also has the Olympus Panorama function which takes picture in a phenomenal panoramic view. One of the other reasons why I bought it, and it was definitely worth it.
