Excellent versatile and durable October 12, 2008
This camera is the perfect all around camera with better than average image quality, durable housing, simple controls with the right depth of complexity for customizable images with great battery life.
We took our camera on a cruise - this camera was perfect. Underwater, bouncing off the ground and then taking great shots moments thereafter ..could you ask for anything more?
great go anywhere anything camara to have aroud October 9, 2008
i have throughly tested this camera,i brought it in to a jungle and stomped around with it for a month. took it in the ocean down to 15 ft droped it couple times but it kep on going. the pictures come ouit good and so does the video its a fast and easy camera to learn. down sides are the zoom is terrible. but they offer decent costomer support and they back up there warrentes. for 300$ its 10 megapixls and a video recorder with water capabilities. they have lots of great accessories for it to so if you wanna go deep or not have to worrie at all about ur camera then u put out 120+$ and you got a waterhousing. good buy for first timers and adventures.
 Great Gift for Friend on the Go October 9, 2008
I bought this for my friend that is heading to China to pick up his "to-be-adopted" daughter, Lily. My friend uses gadgets but is generally uncomfortable with electronics and the intricacies of tweaking options, downloading pictures, etc. He is also pretty rough on stuff. I can see him dropping the camera, splashing it, etc.
So this camera seems a perfect fit for him. So far he says the shutter delay is much less than his previous camera (an old model Canon point and shoot). He says he has great comfort knowing this camera is indestructible. I can see him using it more knowing that he isn't likely to ruin it by having it with him all the time. He loves the video feature.
I didn't get a chance to see the image quality so I cannot comment. I wish I could.
I'll add more to this review later if I get more specifics from him.
The best choice for underwater. October 8, 2008
I bought this camera for one thing and one thing only; it's ability to take photos underwater up to 33 feet without any other housing or attachments. I'm very satisfied with that aspect.
Check out the user photos for some pics I took from Grand Cayman. 90 percent of all my underwater shots (even when I couldn't see the screen because of glare or brightness of the sun) were very nice.
The scene selection menu is very helpful when you need a quick way to get just the right settings for a photo.
Out of the water, the pictures are fine if you aren't trying to zoom very far. I'll keep shooting all my out of water photos with my Sony DSC-H5. The Stylus just can't hold a candle to 12x optical zoom and a Carl Zeiss lense.
Olympus Stylus 1030 SW is great October 6, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We went to BurningMan this summer and the dust destroyed my Minolta digital camera. I searched for something dust proof, water proof, shock proof and the Olympus was the answer. After it arrived it took very few minutes to read instructions and began taking excellent pictures. I look forward to another week on the Playa with a camera that will take the abuse.
