Rating: Summary: In Love Review: I am in love with this little camera: easy to use, great quality (at least for my needs), excellent price. I could not have asked for more.
Rating: Summary: Excellent camera for the price Review: I have been using the camera for 6 months now and have been very pleased with the results. The resolution is what you get with $600 and up cameras.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Pixels Per Dollar Digital Camera Review: I bought the Olympus D-360L because I wanted a digital camera and I didn't want to spend a lot of money. And the Olympus D-360L have very good "pixels per dollar" resolution. The picture quality in the Olympus D-360L is much better than I expected it to be. And it is really very easy to use. I was also impressed with the software that comes with the camera. Its amazing how good pictures come out in low light with no flash. The 1.3 Megapixel resolution is excellent not only for the range of 'entry level' digital cameras. It is also enough good for professional use: rather often we use my pictures in layout of the Home Computer Magazine to illustrate product reviews and so on. The colours are great! The *****-star reviews this camera has been receiving are right on the money. The Olympus D-360L is an excellent digital camera.
Rating: Summary: Great Camera, Not Compatible with Mac USB Port Review: The camera's great. I'm really PO'D though because the specs state that it is compatible with Macs. The truth is they have some cable you can send away for but it only works with the older Macs. If you own an IMac or any new Apple with the usb port THEY HAVE NOTHING. But they will try to sell you a smart card reader for $80 that does have the USB port. Calling this camera Mac Compatible is deceptive advertising. I'm returning my camera.
Rating: Summary: Great camera, OK Mac experience Review: I bought the Olympus D-360L for my wife as a birthday present. Literally right out of the box we were both taking great shots indoors and out. The quality is great for our amateur needs, and some of the shots even look professional to our untrained eyes. We have yet to read the manual for tips, no doubt the pix will be even better then. My only complaint is that Olympus and all resellers that I'm aware of advertise the camera as platform-independent. However, an 'optional' cable adaptor is required for Mac connecting, and even then only to an older (non- G4, G3, or iMac) Mac's serial port. If it doesn't plug and play for both PCs and Macs, it's not platform-independent. ...
Rating: Summary: GREAT CAMERA Review: I received my camera a week ago and I am very impressed with ease of use and options available with this camera. It takes great pictures. I am usig it to post pictures to the web. I have set the camera to it lowest setting which is all that is needed for web use (480x640) and with the 8mb smart media card included it will hold 122 pictures. I recommend getting a media card reader since it makes downloading quick and easy. Thanks Amazon for the customer reviews. They were a great help in choosing the right camera.
Rating: Summary: A Pretty Good Digital Camera Review: I have really enjoyed this camera now that I finally can download pictures on my computer. It was easy to install the software and now I am sending pictures to all my family members. The camera is easy to use, but a little bit non-intuitive if you haven't read the manual in awhile. Also, the limited ability to zoom and take different types of pictures is a bit frustrating, but you get what you pay for. For posting pictures on the web this camera is fine.
Rating: Summary: It is a nice one at this price, but... Review: I read all reviews here and then bought one from Amazon.com and took many photos using this camera. I thought the picture quality is very nice. But one important function is missing: after I download the photo images to my PC using the CAMEDIA Master 1.2 software, I found that the date can not be imprinted automatically on the right down corner of each picture. I read carefully the camera manual and the software help documents, but no any answer there, so I called the Olympus tech support hot line (1-8885534448). the person there told me both the camera and the software can not automatically add the date on a picture, but if I buy a speicific Olympus printer for printing, the date can be there, or I can manually insert a text box on each picture, I tried but the effect is bad because the date font is not quartz font so it does not like a phote picture. if any body knows how to solve this problem, pls let us know. BTW, I think this function should be very easily realized in a digital camera, but I am really wondering why the Olympus company does not include it in this model.
Rating: Summary: Buy This Camera! Review: I was looking for a point and shoot digital for use in our office where camera technical skills are few. I also didn't want to spend a fortune. Based on other customer reviews, I bought this camera. It is an outstanding value. Out of the box, I took a close-up (8") shot of a flower that everyone is raving about. The water droplets on the flower showed, and the depth-of-field was excellent. In testing the camera, I choose the worst scenario: me facing the sun taking a picture of a person. The sun was setting, putting it just of the subjects shoulder. With the camera set on automatic, the result was very acceptable. Face was recognizable. It was almost "arty" because of the suns rays. The next test was in extremely low light. The results were great. A little washed out on close subjects as you would expect, but overall picture quality was very, very good. This is a great point and shoot camera with enough variable settings to provide some great shots for someone who wants to experiment with low light, action, sequences, etc. Downloading was a snap. Overall a completely intuitive camera. I didn't read the manual until after I had shot a couple dozen pictures. And I only read the manual to learn some of the sublities of using the camera. Five stars for sure! BUY THIS CAMERA!
Rating: Summary: Even grandmas can learn to use this wonderful camera! Review: .... ...purchased this camera after doing much research (magazines,newspaper and online). I am so pleased with it. After reading the manual and "playing with the camera, "learning how to operate the camera, how to load the pictures into the computer... it all came together and "I'm up and running." I took people's advice and bought the...Olympus adapter--well worth it. Much better than using batteries. Camera manual is very user friendly; unfortunately no manual for the software (print out the online-supplied manual). Since I am not very computer savvy nor Windows savvy, I have amazed myself that I was able to accomplish this task in only a few days. Wonderful camera for the money and for my purposes. No regrets at all.
