Summary: One of the best purchases I have ever made.
Review: For my needs, this camera is perfect. The 8MB card is bigger than most cameras offer and holds enough pictures for me, and even if I want more, I can just buy another card. The quality of picture is great, even at the medium level, and when I order pics from (on-line) they come back looking great. The menus are easy enough to understand but do all that I need them to do. The panorama function is the coolest thing about the camera, even though I have yet to use it anywhere other than my office and apartment (when I go to the Grand Canyon it'll come in really handy). The software is good. The LCD screen is clear. The picture-taking options are very useful. Even the battery life is fine (other people have complained)... I bought two sets of NiMH rechargeables with a charger and I always have enough power. If I have one complaint, it is that it doesn't have a USB connection... the Serial conntection is slow, but as long as you are prepared to wait a bit (go have a sandwich maybe), it is not a big deal.I have already used it for a friend's new baby and the wedding of an old college friend. The ability to put these pictures on the Internet so that friends and relatives can see them has made me a very popular chap. I have a Canon Rebel 2000 SLR for those times when I need a higher quality picture, so for my point-and-shoot needs the Olympus D-360L is perfect.

Summary: Stopped working after 4 months and customer support was bad
Review: I had great success with the camera for several months. I would have given it 5 stars. It made it though two vacations and took wonderful pictures. It was very easy to use. After downloading the last set of photos to my computer, the shutter release just stopped working. Customer service said it was batteries and sent me to (a store) to get a special set with a special charger... 12.8 hours later (have to charge the batteries myself) the camera still does not work. Called csutomer service again (28 minutes on hold before I talked to someone). They lost my records in their new system, they said the last guy I talked to was a moron and I did not need the new batteries and that I need to send the camera in because it simply broken. I was unhappy with the expertise of customer service and am dissappointed to have the camera stop working from one second to the next after only 4 months.

Summary: Hands down entry price winner
Review: If you don't need a zoom lens & if you're not into huge picture blow-ups, this camera can't be beat. It takes beautiful pictures in all conditions. Fairly simple to operate also. You'll need an ac-adapter because of battery life & that's about it other than a card reader. The serial port connection is slow.

Summary: A Camera for those of us who can't afford a $1000 camera...
Review: ...But still want good pictures....I was skeptical about getting an entry-level camera due to the fact that most of the work I do is web design. Boy, was I wrong. The images compare to the highest of cameras. The interface is very easy (if you know how to read, haha). I had no problem with the serial connection taking a while (I ALWAYS have other things to do whilst uploading), and batteries don't run out too fast if you're one of those people that don't use the LCD display for every image. All in all, beautiful camera, beautiful pictures for a beautiful price.END

Summary: Great first digital camera
Review: I love this camera! It has lots of features and lots of options. It also takes GREAT pictures! I recently brought ours to a professional wrestling event where we had pretty good seats and it took better pictures than the Kodak film camera we brought with 200 speed film in it! I also brought it to my cousin's wedding and I used the various quality settings and I took LOTS of pictures on the 8mb card included. We still haven't gotten another card and still lug around our film camera with us for pictures we can wait to develop or we don't want to share on the web, eventhough we have a scanner. A digital camera is a neat thing to have, we use ours at least once a week, even if it's just taking pictures of our cats. It's especially great for the web sites I webmaster and to share pics almost instantly on the web with family and friends. The only thing I don't like about this camera is the lack of a zoom lense, it doesn't take very good pictures when you are far away at sporting events like Major League Baseball games, and the LED screen really sucks up batteries, but it's a great digital camera. If you want this or any digital camera I would suggest you get rechargeable batteries. So, if you aren't sure if you want or can operate a digital camera, get this one! It's easy and great for a starter digital camera.

Summary: PALM USERS - BE AWARE
Review: I received the D360-L as a gift and it has performed admirably. I have even received reasonable battery life by using the view finder exclusively. A major problem was downloading via the serial port on my PC. I have the Palm V software on board and the Palm V synchronization software kicks in whenever the PC is turned on. This in turn made it impossible for the computer to find the camera and download pictures. The solution was very simple but was not to be found in any printed matter available from Olympus or Palm. I found the solution in an "oh by the way" comment in a product review magazine. Simply select from the Palm synchro menu the option that requires synchronization to be manually activated. Re boot and the download will run flawlessly albeit somewhat long.

Summary: Great Shots!!
Review: This is one of the best investment I made. I used the camera for my vacation in Florida last August and I couldn't believe the sharpness and quality of the pictures when I printed them out. The camera came with its own software for the PC. With the LCD monitor I can delete whatever pics I don't want. Go with rechargeable batteries because it tends to run down if you take pictures with the monitor on. But the camera is great!!!!

Summary: Impressive and Fun.
Review: This is my first digital camera, although I've used them before. After getting to know it and adding some much needed accessories, I can say it really is a great camera, at a reasonable price. The quality of the pictures is astounding considering it is a relatively basic model. The first thing I would recommend ordering with it is a Sandisk reader. This is cheap and a must have; it downloads all your pictures in an instant and thus saves the clumsy,time,and battery-consuming process of loading them by direct camera-to-computer method. If you've read about the battery life problem you'll be prepared for burying the included batteries on the first day. Others recommend rechargeables, but I've always hated them. They don't last long, and I don't like the hassle. I put in new lithium batteries and they really last. As far as actual picture taking, the only two negatives I see are problems with blurry images of moving subjects and the lack of a real zoom feature. The zoom feature on this camera merely crops in on your existing image. However I see these points as minor as the beauty of the picture quality, and sheer fun in using this camera make it a winner. Besides, if you want to zoom in on a shot, just take three or four steps in, and you'll be saving yourself about ... bucks. Out of all the regrettable purchases I've made in my life, I can say this is not one of them. Be careful though, being able to erase and retake shots may lead to severe camera addiction.

Summary: Probably as good as people say it is, if it works.
Review: I can't give many stars to a product that has been returned to the manufacturer. I haven't received a replacement yet. If the replacement works as well as what other reviewers say, I will happily return here and upgrade my review. Until then, a single star will suffice.

Summary: Extremely Pleased
Review: This is my first digital camera. However, I have used numerous digital cameras. This is, by far, the easiest I've used. I had it set up, running and downloading images in about five minutes. The software included with the camera is easy to operate, even for a dummy like me. The pictures are as clear as any I've seen coming from more expensive cameras. I recommend this camera to anyone buying their first one.
