Customer Reviews

Food Porn without Pain
I suppose I could easily do a video review and really show off the camera - but I'm in writing mode at the moment. At any rate, we bought the camera to take underwater photos on a snorkeling vacation - where it performed perfectly - but I love it for food blogging. The macro feature takes perfect food porn pictures effortlessly, and if you get a bit of bechamel on your lens, it washes or wipes right off. I'm neither a trained or talented photographer, but I've been very happy with this product, which we've had for a year.

Undependable and No Support
I bought this camera in anticipation of a long planned trip to Hawaii. On my fourth snorkeling trip,(no more than 15 feet deep) the camera quit. Went back to the boat to change the battery and water poured from the inside. Sent Olympus an e-mail seeking help and got no response from them until five weeks later giving me their standard warranty BS.

Not very waterproof and hard to take pictures with
I had this camera flood once although it may have been user error. Olympus fixed it and returned it. Then the next time I used it anywhere near water the screen stopped working. Well it comes on for a couple seconds but then goes black. This doesn't seem like a water issue but I don't know what else it could be. So I am not sure whether to send it back to Olympus or forget about it. Also, in general while the pictures are OK for what it is, it's really hard to take pictures with. You can't see a thing on the screen in daylight or under water and the screen illuminator feature doesn't seem to do anything. I got lots of pictures of fish going either into or out of the picture, not fish nicely centered on the picture. When the picture does come out it is nice, but it is not easy. Perhaps I am spoiled by DSLR but I was hoping for something a little better and more reliable.
