Olympus FE-340 8MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom (Red)

Just love my little red Olympus camera. I had previously owned an Olympus digital camera but was in need of one with updated features (optical zoom, larger view, slim body, lightweight, etc). In all ways this camera has met my complete satisfaction & was an excellent price on Amazon. Very user friendly, takes great shots! Would recommend this camera 2 beginners & 2 those more experienced who wish 2 take along a compact excellent camera.

My 12 year old daughter bought this with birthday money & just loves it. It is incredibly user friendly & takes amazing pics & video. Highly recommend!

This camera is great 4 taking on a trip or just 2 take in your pocket. Great pics!
I recomend this camera.

Olympus FE-340 has a good sized LCD, 5X zoom, & is very user-friendly specially 4 people who are simply point-and-shoot photographers.

PROS:
-- Camera has 5x zoom, looks solidly built, comes in great colors and
the control buttons are very intuitive.
-- Has a Guide option which describes possible shooting scenarios
(like shooting something behind a glass, shooting with bright
backlight) & you only need 2 select which scenario applies &
the camera provides you with the optimal settings. You just select it,
then point & shoot.
-- LCD screen is good sized & clear.
-- Provides 4 different preview shots at once (splits LCD display in 4)
& gives you the option 2 select which shot looks best 2 you.
-- Image quality is good. Nothing spectacular, just good.

CONS:
-- Only takes xD picture cards.
-- No burst mode (this is the continuous shooting mode).
-- Write speed & flash recycle time is very slow.

If you like fast burst mode, faster write speed, & SD card compatible,
try either Canon SD1000 or Casio EX-Z80.
