Summary: Easy to use digital camera
Review: This camera is quite easy to use and we're learning more every day. We just learned how to transfer images to a VHS tape and really like this option. We come home from our trips anxious to transfer the images and relive each event. We normally upload our images to a web site that will print copies of the photos for us, so we never have to deal with the hassel of going some place to get prints made. We would recommend this camera to those out there who are just getting into the "digital" age.

Summary: A family treasure
Review: I liked my Olympus D-460 zoom digital camera so much that I recommended it to 2 sons and bought it for another son as a gift. I get great action shots of the grandchildren and border collies in our lives, and stunning, color-perfect close-ups of flowers--dew drops, insects, and all. It is compact and light enough to pop in my purse or jeans pocket, and the cover control makes that a safe way to go.

Summary: Great Digital Camera
Review: This is my first digital camera. I have had it and used it extensively since August of 2001. Sharp pictures, good color. Downloads are slow - perhaps this is a digital camera characteristic - I don't know. I bought a larger storage card for it and it works really well. I am buying a replacement and hope to find something that works as well with the movie and sound feature. No reservations in recommending this camera.

Summary: Fantastic Point & Shoot Cam
Review: This is my first digital camera. I have been using this camera for nearly 5 months. The quality of prints I get are fantastic for a 1.2 megapixel camera. I am able to get prints up to 5x7 with good color tones if the correct setting is chosen. I like that the flash is manual (it doesn't automatically pop up when it detects there isn't enough light) because it gives me a little more control. I have never had a problem with the lens cover hitting the lens when closing it. The lens cover basically is a "two click" close; one to activate the lens to swivel down into the base and then the next to complete the closing of the cover. The only thing I would improve this camera with is for Olympus to add more accessories in the kit. I had to go buy batteries, battery charger, larger memory card and a camera bag, which added up very quickly.

Summary: Love this camera!
Review: I originally owned an Olympus D-340 digital camera -- loved it! Then the tiny Canon digital camera came out.. so I sold the D-340 and bought the Canon digital camera. While it was nice and small, it didn't take the quality of pictures that the Olympus did, nor did it fit the hand right. I sold the Canon digital camera and bought this one in January of 2001. I also bought some rechargeable 2AA batteries at the same time and finally had to use them. The batteries that come with the camera (lithium, I believe) JUST died this January (2002)! I have taken hundreds of pictures with this camera! (Maybe thousands!) Anyhow, the camera is designed to fit your hand. The size is about what a normal camera might be. If I had a bigger purse, it would probably fit. I just bought a small digital camera bag for it. I can toss in the battery charger, etc. I like the quality of the zoom. The only thing that I don't care for is that the flash has to be flipped up in order to use it. I guess this is good and bad. Good because if you DON'T want to use flash for a picture, just don't flip it up (less having to do with settings, etc.). Bad, though, in case you forget to flip it up when you need the flash. All in all, I will definitely stick with the Olympus brand for digital cameras.

Summary: The best digital for a rank amateur at reasonable price
Review: I am a newspaper columnist covering the environment, art, drama, book launchings etc. and so need a camera for close-ups, distance,reproducing paintings etc.For a newspaper columnist and senior citizen with no photographic know-how (I used to be assigned a photographer to accompany on assignments) this digital is invaluable, halving the work involved in getting my copy to the office. Praise for my photographs from professional newspaper photographers, and requests for copies from the artistic community here are, in my opinion, entirely due to the ease of use of this model. I use my camera every day,it has never yet let me down. I visited this site to check the latest price for my insurance because if I should lose it I wanted to know I could replace it straight away with another Olympus D460 Zoom.

Summary: 2 strikes and your out
Review: Purchased a new olympus d460 camera for xmas present. Worked good for about 30 days, then the zoom lens stopped and the motor kept running. Could not turn off so had to remove batteries and sent in for repair which will be [price]. While the camera was in for repair we bought a refurbished olympus d460 as a backup since we had all the extras. We got 20 min's of use out of that camera when it went compleatly dead, so here we are with 2 camers both of which are in for repair. In my opinion Olympus has a real problem with their zoom lens or else we were extreamly unlucky

Summary: Simple and easy to use...resulting in great pictures
Review: I have had this camera for 1.5 years now. It is very easy to use. Easy menu allows one to explore various camera settings. Really good at taking pictures close up in macro mode. Suprisingly sharp pictures for 1.3 megapixels. Great first digital camera. Only downside is uses AA bateries really quick. But I would buy this camera again.

Summary: reliable camara, decent performance
Review: I've had this camara for over a year now. It has proven to be an important part of tech life. I use it to capture random things in the apartment to show my co-workers, family reunion, and work. Pro: Decent operation, decent resolution for its time.
Con: Lack of usb connection. 8mb media takes up to 10 minutes to download via Serial cable. The program it supplied "Camedia" blows.
