Olympus D-460 1.2MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom

Summary: my first digital camera
Review: brought the d460 to replace a 35mm camera. By the time I figured out how to use it properly, I was steadily getting very dissapointed with the digital zoom. When you are in an auditorium, taking pictures of your children performing, you cannot get a good close-up. Picture quality is great as long as you are taking stills, scenary, and no action. I've had it for about 3 years and I'm making a better choice next time.

Summary: Good
Review: I bought this camera back in 2000 off the internet from www.buy.com. I've since then taken thousands and thousands of pictures with it. Its a wonderful camera but as of times today it is becoming extremely dated. Some of its features have been improved upon in recent years. I have a friend that has an Olympus C-5050 and viewed some of his photos that were taken. The rich color and detail compared to my old camera can be easily seen. The time when digital pictures will meet or exceed the detail on 35mm is almost here! I bought this old camera for 2.5X the price it is today so that goes to show what 3 years can do to prices. But the picture you want to take probably won't wait that long. I would recommend the Olympus line of cameras to anyone! They are a strong performer and reliable too! Take a look at www.consumerreports.com (requires subscription) and see for yourself! My old camera had beer spilled on it and it still takes the best of photos today. For those that want it all check out the new "E-1" model that will soon hit the market. Its bound to set the standard in digital cameras.

Summary: Customer Service for this camera is lees than desirable
Review: While the camera is performing great! There were some accessories that did not work with the camera. I tried repeatedly to contact Olympus and received the runaround on numerous occasions. I will not buy an Olympus product again. Customer service and support is the focal point of any good business. The marketers at Olympus obviously missed that day of instruction when they were going through customer support training.

Summary: GREAT CAMERA AND EVEN BETTER PRICE
Review: I BOUGHT THIS CAMERA 2 YEARS AGO AND IT IS STILL GOING STRONG ABSOLUTLEY GREAT PICTURES I LOVE IT. AND SINCE I BOUGHT IT SO LONG AGO THE PRICE WAS HIGHER IT WOULD STILL BE WORTH IT TO ME TO BUY IT AGAIN AT A HIGHER PRICE BUT LOOKING AT THE PRICE NOW ITS AN ABSOLUTE STEAL.
