This review is from: Olympus Stylus 750 7.1MP Digital Camera with Digital Image Stabilized 5x Optical Zoom and CCD Shift Stabilization (Black)Got it yesterday. In green. Actually it's a shiney yellowish-green. Nice feel. Fits well in shirt pocket. Very light; particullarly compared to my Pentax Optio 550. Good, nice size LCD. Easy to use yet with nice availability of choices for customization. Well written manual (you can find online thru google) and onboard help menu. Photos come out fairly nice. Tried indoors in low light with several scene settings, outdoors, macro, and supermacro. Colors look true, fairly sharp without noticable artifact. Used in South Florida morning daylight outside without any trouble with LCD viewing (camera has no classic viewfinder). Have read reviews of washout in bright sun: have not tried that yet. Overall, I'm happy with the camera thus far.*Next Day follow-up: LCD does wash out in bright sunlight. Also it's reflective, making it quite difficut to use. Cupping or baseball hat helps enough to be able to use. I'll definetly order shade screen when Delkin comes out with custom shade for camera. Would lower overall rating to 3 stars if using out in bright sun much.
This review is from: Olympus Stylus 750 7.1MP Digital Camera with Digital Image Stabilized 5x Optical Zoom and CCD Shift Stabilization (Black)I purchased this camera to replace an olympus 400. All in all, it takes great pictures. The image stabilization works very well. I took some test shots at dawn from a freeway bridge (low light conditions & bouncing from traffic)and the camera performed excellently. The shots turned out great. Good color saturation, and fairly sharp image. It also is weather resistant as was the 400, which was one of the MAJOR reasons I picked Olympus. I have had a camera "fry" because of a little rain during a picture shoot.It does seem to go through battery power quicker than I would like, especially if it is being used outdoors in the cold. But I planned ahead for that by buying two extra batteries just for that issue. The lack of an optical viewfinder, screen is in use all of the time, I suspect is a major culprit. I usually turned off the screen on my older camera to conserve battery life.As with many postings for this and most newer point & shoot cameras, the lack of an optical viewer is a critical flaw if shooting in bright environments. Between the reflected glare, and dim screen images, you just can't see a thing while composing your shot. Just point, shoot, and hope!I was looking at Digital SLR's for a next camera when I bought this camera. I'm not sure I'm through looking.
This review is from: Olympus Stylus 750 7.1MP Digital Camera with Digital Image Stabilized 5x Optical Zoom and CCD Shift Stabilization (Black)I have a Sony Mavica (which I love), but I needed something compact and fairly weatherproof to bring to an archaeological field school. This camera survived lots of blowing sand and dust, some light rain, being banged around in a daypack, and in the process acquired some dents and scratches, yet it still performs like a champ. The photos are fantastic. Yes, the LED screen is VERY difficult to see in bright sunlight--under those conditions you have to feel fairly confident about your ability to compose the shot, and for this reason alone I didn't give it five stars--but thanks to the autofocus and stabilization feature, the photos aren't blurry at all. Please note that although this camera is water-resistant, it is most assuredly NOT WATERPROOF. It will not withstand submersion.Purchase an extra battery because the battery can't be charged while it's in the camera. Overall, this is an excellent little compact camera. I'd purchase it again in a heartbeat.
