Digital camera Review: OLYMPUS 790SW
Summary: 5 Stars
THIS CAMERA IS GREAT, TAKE REALLY GOOD QUALITY, COLOR, DIGITAL PICTURES. I CARRY IT AROUND ALL DAY IN POCKET SO IT GETS A LOT OF WEAR AND TEAR AND IT STILL WORKS GREAT. CANT SAY ENOUGH GOOD ABOUT IT. IF YOU NEED A CAMERA THAT CAN GO ANYWHERE UNDER SEVERE CONDITION THIS IS THE CAMERA TO TAKE. IT'S NOT A SLR BUT YOU CAN TAKE IT PLACES WHERE YOU NORMALLY WOULDN'T HAVE YOUR SLR. GREAT CAMERA, GREAT PRICE.Digital camera Review: Olympus 790

The product itself arrived in perfect condition and was timely shipped, -- no problem with that. In looking at the image of the "kit", I thought I was buying a nice neat little gift package arrangement, but actually all of these parts were separate items, and were packaged individually. Had I known this prior to purchasing, I would have custom made my own package and would have substituted some of the "package" items for more useful items. Also, I'm not sure this was the most economical way to buy these items.
Overall, I was pleased with the purchase - everything was in perfect condition, and the camera itself has been great so far.
Other than this, I have no issue with this product. Everything was in first-class condition.

It is hard to give an opinion on this product as it was a Christmas gift to my son and his wife. As far as I know, they are enjoying their camera and have not said anything negative about itDigital camera Review: Orange-ya-gonna read?

First let me say, while not the highest MP's on the block, the advertized "oopps-proofing" of this camera drew me in. Drops from up to 5 feet can be weathered, its submersible, can operate in temperature conditions to 10 below 0, and the portability are all sure fire winners in our family. Now onto the software: Can I say WOW? Very user friendly (as I have YET to crack open the book). Was able to literally shoot right out of the box, navigate the settings on the camera without issue(still more to learn I am sure, though), and with a simple plug in of the USB, uploading is automatic! SOOOOO much easier than my first digital camera circa 1994 (yes, you read me right)....AND WORKS SEAMLESSLY WITH Nice editing tools within the software, thus no need to import pics into Photoshop or the like to correct red eye, etc. You can even email right out of the software v. attaching pics of old camera softwares gone-by. Camera boasts the ability to shoot video as well (although I'd recommend the 2GB card, which likewise allows for tons of still images should you be away on vacation and unable to download/free up space). Case colors are eye catching too. All in all, considering the rough-in-tough capabilities (without the tank look of many electronics that are made for active and or clumsy users), the requisite/acceptable number of mega pixels (note I did not say stellar, just acceptable), the software (both in and out of the camera) and the large viewing screen (considering the overall size of the camera to begin with), this was a good buy for our family's needs.
