Summary: Good camera
Review: We checked out all the other 3 Megapixel cameras and much preferred the Olympus based on price and features. The fact that I have had an 35mm Olympus camera for 20 years and have never had a problem with it also helped make the decision.
What's good:
1) Picture quality
2) Features - preprogrammed modes
3) Clear LCD screen
4) Nice software included - even though I use PhotoShop for editing, the software doea a good job of organizing the photos.What's Not So good:
1) As others have pointed out, the lense cover has to be fully retracted to fire it up - not difficult - but often overlooked.
2) No camera case
3) Irritating constant pop up of flash, even when not needed. Other than that, make sure you have extra memory cards, and don't even think about using it without rechargeable batteries.

Summary: 5-Star Camera* * * * *
Review: When I first set eyes on this camera I fell in love with the pop-up flash. Not just that the outcome of it's photos are amazing especially on bright sunny days. This camera is a must have for those looking to take there digital photography to a whole new level, 3.0 mega pixels. I use this camera with a HP Photosmart 1315, and they get along well and always provide me with beautiful, vibrant photos. I was very pleased with my first photo which was an 8x10 of my young nefews. This camera is truly amazing but, there are some must have accessories:
--RECHARGABLE BATTERIES
--LARGER CAPACITY SMART MEDIA CARD, (16MB INCLUDED)
**Go ahead, make the purchase & you won't be dissappointed**
GUARANTEED

Summary: frustration says it all
Review: Wow, what was olympus thinking when they put this camera on the market? Using this camera has been nothing less than a hair pulling experience.Most basic features of this camera are adequete, but the advanced features are very difficult to use and/or not worth the additional cost. The users manual is written as though the user has already taken extensive course study on the camera (example: diopter dial is only referenced in manual in a graphic footnote). Picture quality of 3 megapixel is a joke (especially in lower light levels) and seems to be more of a marketing/sales device. I would strongly advise the average camera consumer to avoid purchasing this
model.
