5 out of 5 stars Good Camera   February 13, 2007

I have to say, after reading some of these reviews I don't agree. This is a great size camera that takes nice pictures. Toss it in a bag and go. I don't know of any Digital Camera that works like we ALL expect them too. This is a good camera for the money as well.

VERY pleased with the product. Light weight, thin, not too bulky, large viewing screen, rechargable battery out lasts regular batteries, great pictures and movies with good sound. No problems, highly recommend. Decent price. Consumer Reports recommends as a "Best Buy".


2 out of 5 stars Unreliable   January 18, 2007

The first Stylus 800 I got was defective, when powered on it went straight to an error screen. The merchant replaced it for free.

I've had my second Stylus 800 for 10 months. For the last couple months the lens cap has required coaxing to open or close. Last weekend it stopped opening altogether and I had to permanently remove the lens cap. So much for its water resistance, and I wonder how long the lens will survive with no protection.

Additionally, if I try to zoom, then it goes to an error screen and I have to cycle power to get it to work again.

Sometimes it takes photos at a lower resolution than I have it set to, I'm not sure why.

I also have difficulty pressing the power button when wearing gloves. A minor irritation.



5 out of 5 stars An improvement ...   January 16, 2007

... over the Stylus mu 410 and C-5500. As light and watertight as the 410, but with twice the resolution. Easier, far lighter, and with a better choice of automatic shooting programs than the C-5500, and with 60% higher resolution. This is our new hiking camera for 2007. The drawback: downloading into the nice, old Camedia program doesn't work well on a Mac G4, works more or less ok on PC with Windows XP. In both case you have to download 'from media' with camera attached. With the G4, high resolution doesn't go via email, necessary to scale down to 2500x2000 pixels. With a new Intel based MacBook Pro emailing via Camdeia was impossible in all cases, but when I installed the new software (Olympus Master) downloading was extremely fast (the PC can't keep up), and one can email the highest resolution photos quickly via Mac's Mail program, to which the new Olympia Master connects automatically (everything goes here via hi speed DSL, of course).


1 out of 5 stars Very poor picture quality   December 15, 2006

I got this camera more than a year ago and the picture quality was so bad I took the camera back after a month. Pixilated, smeared, unsharp images is what I got. The camera store checked it (I bought it at their recommendation)and found it equally appaling. The gave me a replacement immediately. Although slightly better - it is still very poor and I have barely used the camera - finding the Panasonic FZ20 5 megapixel gives me far better results. I will never even consider an Olympus again.
