Summary: Please watch yourself for a unstable but expensive camera
Review: I bought Olympus C765 at Apr. 28, 2004. At first, it was the great experience. Everything worked and I only use the camera for about several times since. Recently I found out the navigation bar and OK button is not working at all. In a word, I can not upload picture, erase picture, and view the pictures from one to the other. This is very expensive camera and I paid $419 for it. I never expect the camera broke so quickly. It is on the way to Olympus repair center now and I have to pay the shipping for it.

Summary: Best Camera I've Ever Owned
Review: I cannot express how great this camera is. Not once has it let me down in ease of use, advanced features (when I need them), true color reproduction, contrast, or anything else that makes a picture a "good" picture. You just can't beat the 10x OPTICAL zoom -- not lousy digital zoom -- either. Get yourself an extra rechargeable battery, a couple of high-capacity memory cards, and have fun with one of Olympus' best consumer level cameras ever released.

Summary: Excellent Camera
Review: I have had this camera for a couple of weeks. It is extremely easy to use in any mode, has a great optical zoom, acheives auto focus almost always, has good flesh tones and color saturation, and it has a truely superior Macro and Super Macro funtion that works extremely well. Even when zoomed in close I haven't had any problems with blur from camera shake. Even though there is no Image Stabilization feature on this camera. In general this is an excellent camera.
The only complaint I have is that It didn't come with a wrist strap. Otherwise a superior performer.
Experience: Casio Z4U, Kodak DX7630, Fujifilm E550, Olympus D-580 and now the C-765

Summary: A great upgrade for digital camera users.
Review: I just purchased this camera and love it. Prior to getting this one, I had been using my Olympus Camedia 3030. This one has several things that really make it better than the old one:First and foremost, it has the 10x optical zoom. I often found with the C-3030 that I couldn't get close enough in on people and animals if they were more than about 20 feet away. This one solves that problem. Second, the lag time from pressing the button to the shutter releasing is significantly reduced in this camera. I can actually capture my son before he has left the picture frame. It still isn't as fast as an SLR, but it is light years ahead of where it used to be. Third, I have noticed significantly fewer red eye issues with this camera. This is a big deal for me since everyone in my family is fair skinned with blue eyes. Last, the battery is a Li rechargeable. It only takes about two hours to get a full charge. Picture quality is exceptional. I haven't had any problems with the zoom lens (but I do try to steady the camera on a fence or something if the zoom is fully extended). All in all, I think this is a great camera. Admittedly, I don't use all the bell and whistles -- mostly the automatic settings. Oh, and one other thing I like -- it is easier to control the flash with this one since you have to open it to use it. A Few Cons: It may be overpriced compared to the competition. The battery and charger come with the camera, but a spare battery costs approx. $50.00 (and you can't use AA's in a pinch). You'll definitely need to buy a 256MB card right away. The one that comes with the camera only holds about 16 pictures. The digital display window can not be adjusted or turned -- so it is hard to preview your images in some bright light situations.

Summary: well worth the bucks
Review: I love the small size which provides great portability and it's hard to believe all the great features packed into this little gem of a digital camera. The zoom lens is a much used feature as is the built in cropping and other editing tools. You really need to read the instruction manual to get the most out of the camera - after reading it I discovered just how much I was missing! Although you certainly don't need to read it to be able to use the camera as it's very easy to operate. I was advised to get at least 3MP for good end results when printing the photos and the 10x optical zoom cannot be beat. This camera produces extremely clear photos that can be enlarged to 8x10 without loosing clarity. My belief is that it's not worth spending $150-200 on a digital camera if you end up with grainy photos - just keep your regular camera until you're ready to make an investment for the higher grade camera and if you are ready, I highly recommend this camera. I know the dollar amount could make this purchase a question mark but it's well worth it!

Summary: Great Camera
Review: I replace my old Olympus 450 with this camera. I loved the old camera but it did not have all the features that I wanted. The new camera is great. It takes great pictures out of the box. If you spend the time to get to know all the features it takes even better pictures. I love being able to customize the settings. The zoom is the best feature of the camera. Allows you to get very close to your subject. Battery life is great but I would buy an extra battery because it does not give much warning when it is going.

Summary: LOVE THIS CAMERA
Review: I reviewed tons of digital cameras before buying the C765. I'm glad I did. This camera is lightweight and small which is what I was looking for. The 10X zoom is great! I've gotten clear shots at full zoom w/o a tripod almost every time. The macro and super macros are awesome. The pic quality is absolutely incredible. The battery life is good, using the flash it's going to putter out sooner so I recommend getting a spare. Recharge on the battery is quick too. You will need a 256 card right away. I was worried about the electronic viewfinder, but it's not posed a problem at all. Most of the 10X zooms, at least all that I reviewed, have EVF's. I've only had a few problems focusing indoors. Like all digital cameras there's a minor lag and if your toddler moves as you're taking the pic, you'll get a blurry shot. This is such a minor problem considering how many great shots I have gotten in and outdoors. I've had this camera for 6 months now and just love it. I was able to use it right out of the box. I still have more to learn about it, but have been having great success w/ the auto settings, I've not needed to play w/ the manual ones yet. I will!

Summary: Love it!
Review: I've had this camera for a couple of months and I love it. The pictures look great and it is very easy to use. Its big and boxy so it won't fit in a small purse or pocket, but its worth hanging a camera case around your shoulder if you like to take high quality outdoor pictures.

Summary: An excellent combination
Review: I've had this camera for about a month now, and it's easy to use and takes great pictures. For people who don't know much about photography, it has point-and-shoot convenience; for those who are more experienced, there are lots of features you can set manually. The pre-set macro mode is great fun--it allows you take some gorgeous extreme close-ups. You do need to keep your hands extremely steady or use a tripod to prevent the picture from being too blurry (using the action shot mode also helps, since the shutter speed is faster). I bought mine for $339, and it's a really good value for the money. The only minor complaint I have is that the propietary XD card is pretty expensive and you need to get the Olympus brand if you want to take panoramic pictures, but I managed to find a 256MB chip for $40, so really I don't have too much to complain about. If you're looking for a decent mid-range digital camera, I highly recommend this one.
