Summary: Just excelent
Review: It is my first digital camera but i have friends with very expensive cameras ($3000+). So I spent a lot of time reading reviews and consulting my friends. I've chosen this one and did never regrett it!
1. color balance is excelent
2. with NiMh battaries (1700Mh) I make more then 50-70 shots with display and flash.
3. the picture itseft is very sharp
Look at my pictures I took with D-230.
They were made with full auto mode
I made NO changes on computer!...

Summary: Nice camera but it burns through batteries like crazy
Review: Just in setting up, understanding how to use it with twenty pictures taken and downloaded to PC, I used 3 sets of brand new Duracell alkaline batteries, and the 1 set of alkaline included in the box (they lasted three minutes). You have to buy lithium or rechargeable. Otherwise nice camera.

Summary: Good Camera, Alkaline Batteries Not Usable
Review: Odd that this camera should come with alkaline batteries. They lasted 10 or so shots. I put new...Duracell alkalines in, and they lasted about the same. The results seem excellent, though I have yet to try it outdoors in daylight. I will try the lithiums, and get back to you. I bought a Samsung 64 mb smart media for it, and it works fine...Aside from the stupidity of giving the consumer alkalines, which don't work worth a darn, the camera seems good.

Summary: one of the easiest to use
Review: Olympus d series digital cameras are very easy to use.
The one i have takes pics reasonably quickly for a digital.
It stops the action of a moving seen quite well, even
driving along in the car! Hint: Only use the lithium batteries, alkalines will not
be suitable for this camera even though it might be
packaged with them. With lithium i did just fine.
The auto downloading usb works great. The camera is
small and light. It shows the pic you just took immediately on the lcd screen, a
big plus for my peace of mind. I print up to 5x7 or 8x10
on photo paper, looks very nice for a 2.1 pixel camera. You do not need to use the program or any program for that matter to download from this camera. All you need is the driver on the cd disk the first time and then its automatic from there.

Summary: Great first digital camera
Review: The camera has many easy to use features and is great for sharing Email pictures. Eats up batteries quickly but with a charger and Ni-MH rechargable batteries the problem is solved.

Summary: Nice Camera
Review: This camera is a great camera for the price. Just set yourself up right with re-chargeable batteries, or lithium. The alkaline are ridiculous.

Summary: nice camera. slow shutter speed. great features.
Review: this camera takes very nice pictures, even at night, but the slow shutter speed, makes it kind of difficult to time 4th-of-july fireworks pics. offcourse, you need rechargeable batteries. very easy to upload images, esp since you dont need to install any software. just plug into any computer, and you have your images. the highest resolution is great, as good as an actual print, but the images are large. overall very decent camera. also, be careful when buying cameras without a lens cover. this one has a nice one.

Summary: 100% Mac Compatible
Review: This camera was'nt listed on Apple's web site as OSX compatible, but Olympus's site said it was. It has worked effortlessly on my imac. It comes with the necessary cable, and works without even loading the camera software. Battery life is a non-issue:just don't turn on the LED. Picture quality is great, just point and shoot.

Summary: Great camera for the money
Review: This is a great camera for the money. It has a good lens, is easy to operate, and has a good selection of features. The image quality far exceeds the vast majority of point and shoot cameras. The small size and lens cover make it an especially good choice for keeping with you in your travels. Uploading images to your computer is quick and easy. Buy NiMH batteries and a charger when you purchase the camera, and you can avoid the alkaline battery woes. This is a great choice for simple snaps one can quickly e-mail to family and friends.

Summary: Olympus D230
Review: This is a great camera for the price, it's even a great camera if it was more expensive. This isn't my first digital camera but it would be a very good camera for a beginner. I read a lot of reviews from newbies and they all complained about the alkaline battery life with this camera, so here is a little useful info. NO DIGITAL CAMERA DOES WELL WITH ALKALINE BATTERIES especially if you use the LCD all of the time which isn't necessary. Use lithium or rechargable NiMhd batteries for the best results. If the occasion arises that you only have alkaline batteries, just don't use the display much and even they will last a while. Buy this camera from Amazon and have fun.
