Pros: Flawless. Easy to use.
Cons: The Stylus 410 records audio...Stylus 400 is obsolete as a result.
Summary: A previous reviewer had some issue with Dell Dimension computers...works great on my system. Whatever the problem was there...it is NOT the brand of computer. Getting the camera working with the computer was a snap. The camera comes with a USB ... read more

Pros: Compact size, lightweight, delivers high-quality shots in high-res mode, easy to use
Cons: Steady hand required for sharp pictures; viewfinder is a bit smaller than I'd like.
Summary: I studied the market and analyzed several other cameras in this price range w/similar features before I bought this one...and I love it. It is very durable (I'm a klutz and have dropped it repeatedly, already!) and lightweight--a good combination for me. ... read more

Pros: Compact, weather proof, sharp lens, good picture quality, good features
Cons: Uses xD cards, cannot use "regular" batteries as a back up, no manual controls.
Summary: Even though I’m very familiar with photography, I wanted a small, light weight camera for travel, party type pic’s, etc. All cameras in this general price range have their pros and cons, but since I have two of the Olympus Stylus film cameras, I ... read more

Pros: *Weather proof *size *looks good *controls are relatively easy to use.
Cons: *** Horrendous picture quality!! Returned camera after 2 weeks.
Summary: I own the same camera that uses regular film and I love it. I was looking for a digital camera, and it made sense to try the digital version. This camera's body is really nice. The size is great, and the weatherproof feature was a must for me (lots of ... read more

Pros: Operates in in temps down to 32°F--perfect for the snow.
Cons: Another type of memory...
Summary: Finally, a digital camera that can be used on the slopes without fear. Made to take the pressures of low temperatures and rain or snow, this little camera is a godsend. We first purchased it’s smaller brother, the 300, but before we could even get i ... read more

Pros: Takes fantastic pictures, vivid colors.
Cons: Instructions and ease of changing settings are poor.
Summary: Compact, small, very light and nice design. Was able to take it on several vacations. The place where the lithium battery is stored is right where you thumb hits while taking pictures and that opens the battery storage area easily so you need to be

Pros: Seems to be a nice camera.
Cons: Will not download the photos to my Dell Dimension computer.
Summary: I just bought this camera but can not get the pictures to load onto my Dell Dimension Desktop. The Dell computer refuses to recognize the Olympus as a hardware device. I am running Windows XP Pro with 256MB of Ram and a 40 gig hard drive. The support

Pros: Stylish, compact, weather resistant, easy to use and produces good digital images
Cons: Camedia 4.10 software doesn't provide for deletion of files from the medial card.
Summary: The small size of the Stylus 400 makes it easy to carry with me most of the time. Its weather resistance is ideal for the wet SE Alaska climate, and it has performed well under both wet and snowy conditions. It takes very good pictures, even in low

Pros: Compact size. Good resolution. Relatively water repellant.
Tiny memory card. Takes good quality photos.
Cons: Movement will blur photos. Use with tripod. Multiple menus complicated. High learning curve.
Summary: I bought this camera from Digital One, Brooklyn, N.Y., on eBay. They don't take PayPal, so I had to call them with a cc #. After 15 minutes on hold, I had to listen to the spiel for the extended warranty, which I refused. Twice. Then I got what I thought
