Summary: wow----...
Review: A great digital camera, but with a size that is almost small enough to be stuffed in a pocket. Simplicity of operation makes this camera user friendly. It is kind to batteries and your pocketbook. The camera is loaded with digital features and options......but..
Best of all it produces excellent photos.

Summary: Great starter camera...
Review: This is my first digital camera. The reason I chose this one, is because a friend of mine had a similar model and I found it very easy to use. A very reasonable price for a camera! I went to 2 parties this weekend and took my photos, downloaded them and put them online. It was very simple for the average computer user. Now I can share my memories with everyone!

Summary: You've got to get this camera
Review: I just recieved my camera today and have taken about 50 pictures already!! This is by far the best camera for the money. The image quality and the resolution are crystal clear and with the optional San Disk reader downloads are quick and easy....

Summary: It's great! I love it! But keep the SLR...
Review: I have had more photo fun and taken more pictures since buying this camera than during the rest of my life put together. With no film to lose I can really make sure I like a picture by doing what the pro's do: take a lot of pictures and select the best ones. I generally run the 460 at maximum resolution since it isn't particularly endowed in the pixel area. The color rendition is excellent as well as the autoexposures. Basically, if you can see it, it can photograph it. Some of the night shots are quite impressive.

The 3X optical zoom is good. I wouldn't have a digital camera without it. The lens is prone to "barrel distortion" where straight line things like poles and trees at the edges of the frame appear to bend toward the center. A little strategic framing can make that less of a problem. The camera is rather slow when trying to do live action shots. It takes about a second between button press and shutter release. This is an eternity when trying to photograph my son doing a bike trick or catching a hawk on the wing.

Being an old SLR hobbyist, I miss my telephoto and my filters. I miss an instant shutter release and other areas of total control. In fact, we're shopping for a replacement for our old Canon AT-1. An SLR digital camera with the capabilities of a film SLR is just way too expensive for me right now. So I will continue to have two cameras: my super fun and somewhat amazing D-460Z and my SLR. Each with its own strengths, each with its own creativity.

Review: I received my Olympus D-460 Digital about 3 weeks ago, It has been very easy to figure out, I've taken dozens of pictures of my grand-daughters and all sorts of things, and they have all came out great, it was easy and fast to download onto my computer, easy to make adjustments to lighting and just all around great, what you see in the view finder is what you get a picture of. I also got the smartmedia floppy adptor to transfer the images to the computer, I think the batteries have held out real well and still going strong, but I did also get rechargable batteries.

Summary: Great Camera For The Price !
Review: I have had this camera for about 6 months now. Have taken many pictures with it. The lithium batteries that came with the camera lasted for a very long time. I did not use the lcd display though. If the lcd display is used you will see very short battery life. I bought an optional ac adapter to save battery life when uploading pictures onto my computer. I also bought a set of rechargeable NiMh batteries w/ a charger. Both are a must!

I am a resolution freak, so this camera doesnt deliver the resolution quality I hoped for. But then again, I am a very picky person and to the "average" person the quality is probably fine. Most people that see the pictures I take comment on the great quality.

I have never printed any photos out yet since my printer is archaic and I know it wouldnt do a good job. So I cant comment on this end of things.

I have had the camera in for service. This was my fault though. The camera took a pretty good beating on the back of my atv this spring. Ended up costing me $108 to repair. Quite a bit considering I paid $280 for the camera. I found out the hard way that digital cameras are quite a bit more sensitive than your average 35 mm film camera! And yes, I was pleased with Olympus service department.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good product
Review: No complaints, outstanding pictures.

Get yourself a 64mb memory card [price]will give you 256 picture capacity.

Also get rechargable Ni-MH batteries and charger (any brand). Otherwise you will be buying lots of batteries.

Summary: FUN BUT LIMITED
Review: I bought this camera at Xmas for my wife and have had alot of fun with the pictures. I bought a HP 970cxi to print the pictures and am a little disappointed at the color quality. It isn't bad but it ain't great either. When I print from cds i get with my 35mm the quality is great so I feel fairly sure it is the resolution or something that is at fault. I had a problem with the camera and had to send it in for repair. It was back in 2 weeks which i thought was acceptable. NOt a bad camera for the price. I paid more when i bought it last year(so what else is new)Go with higher resolution if you can afford it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not bad at all
Review: I think this was a damn good camera. Two cons- the battery liffe isn't too long, even with the batteries they give you, and the zoom isn't the greatest. I have never seen such good quality pictures ever- this is the best in its class! SO- if you want a camera get this one! ...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I'll never use a 35mm camera again!
Review: After some careful research, I decided the Olympus D-460 Zoom was the digital camera for me, and I wasn't disappointed! This is my first attempt at digital photography, and I wanted a camera that would take pictures of excellent quality, but wasn't too complicated to use. (I don't know much about manual settings for different situations and lighting, etc.) I love the way you have a choice as to whether to just point and shoot, or to adjust things first. The settings are so easy to understand and the menu so intuitive that even I can change the settings manually if need be. I did purchase immediately the following accessories: a USB reader, a 64 MB SmartMedia card, a battery charger and two sets of rechargeable batteries, and a case. I considered these items "must haves" for the sake of speed and convenience. I would recommend this camera without reservation to novices and experienced digital photographers alike. The picture quality is amazing, and I've already had some prints made by Ofoto.com from pictures I've taken on this camera. You would never guess that they weren't made from conventional film. You can't go wrong at the price I paid for this camera!
