Digital camera reviews of Olympus Stylus 1030SW 10.1MP Digital Camera with 3.6x Optical Wide Angle Zoom (Black)
Digital camera Review: Olympus 1030 SW
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought as replacement for old Konica-Minolta Dimage Xg (broken display).
So far happy of this optimised purchase when looking for sleeky design and increased protection level.
Optical viewfinder + manual focusing function would make this camera perfect = having everything I need.
Digital camera Review: Olympus Stylus 1030SW
Summary: 4 Stars
This camera is a great beach camera. It is waterproof to 33 Ft and can withstand bumping and banging. It was fun to take it in the water and shoot pictures snorkeling, boating, swimming, etc. The picture quality is very good, but we did have some issues with the video. When zooming in while taking a video, the video quality became very blurry. Also, the way the camera is designed your fingers get in the way of the speaker and you end up with a bumping noise on your videos. The only other complaint is that while the camera itself is durable, the finish on the camera scratches easily. After only a few days of use, it looked very 'beat up'. While this doesn't affect how it works, it looks bad cosmetically.Digital camera Review: Olyumpus Digital Camera 1030 SW
Summary: 5 Stars
The reference camera is excellent. My wife has the older version, 720 SW, and this is improved and more rugged for my clumsey hands. The zoom lens never extends beyond the plane of the case so there is no chance of damage if dropped like my last camera. It is easy to operate.Digital camera Review: Perfect gift for those a little less than careful...
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my mom and I also bought one for my boyfriend, they both have exclaimed it was their favorite Christmas gift. It's durable, sleek, and lightweight. It does not give away the fact that it is - for all accidental occurences - virtually indestructible.
The options for taking different types of pictures are numerous, but if you are able to take good care of your camera, you don't really need to add the option that makes it able to endure 220lbs of force. The zoom option is also not too significant, if you really like taking close-ups from far away, I suggest a different model.
Digital camera Review: Stopped working after 3 hours of use
Summary: 1 Stars
I received this product several months ago as a gift. I like to snorkel and my girlfriend gave me this as a generous gift. I used it this weekend to take pictures during a boat trip. After taking some great pictures and video and recharging the battery, I powered-up the camera only to find that the digital display on the camera is no longer working. The camera appears to power up, takes pictures, but the display does not come on. Since I have only used this camera on maybe 5 occasions for a total of 3 hours, I can only deduce that there is a defect either in the design or a defective part. I am sending the camera back to Olympus for repair or replacement. I will follow-up regarding their service. Stay tuned.
