5 out of 5 stars Better than I expected.......2007-12-25

This is my third camera in 6 months; I tried Lumix and Canon before. Either the quality was not acceptable (Lumix) or the camera drowned by accident in a drink (Canon) - the Stylus 790 has so far exceeded my expectations with great picture quality and the peace of mind it can take a drop or a plunge in the water and keep on ticking. Highly Recommended (so far).

4 out of 5 stars Excelent camera, waterproof worth it!.......2007-12-24

i will never buy a product that i have to take care of it!!!!!
with this camera there is no worries, you can wash it, crash it, dump it, try to scrash it, NO PROBLEM!!!
i had a party last week and the camera get all dirty with food, i just take it down the tap in the kitchen sink, dry it with a towel and continue shooting.
With a 2 gb card you can take in the best quality about 520 pics, the battery last like an hour (i bought two more)
BOTTOM LINE: if you need a NO WORRIES camera that takes good pictures (no SRL quality) go for it.
The only con is the lag between pictures with flash, it takes a few seconds to reload.

4 out of 5 stars Olympus stylus 790 SW.......2007-12-24

I like the camera. It is simple to use as point and shoot. I'll get into the complicated stuff as time goes by. The transfer software is somewhat different that what I am used to, so I have some learning to do, but it works well enough. The test will come in June, on the Colorado River, when I get to use it for the purpose for which I bought it.

5 out of 5 stars Small is beautuful.......2007-12-23

I'm still figuring out all the bells and whistles, but so far, I'm mightily pleased with this camera. The built-in user guide makes it easy to figure out which setting to use for certain shots. The stabilization feature is great for low-light and fast-action shots. Overall, I think Olympus has developed a splendid and intuitive user interface. Most of all, I love how compact and attractive it is. ai can carry it in just about any pocket or purse and be ready to take all those shots I missed because I didn't have a (good, bulky) camera with me.

3 out of 5 stars Image Quality Just Isn't There..........2007-12-23

I might be spoiled by my Canon Rebel XT, but I have been very unimpressed with the image quality of the 790SW. I bought it because I was traveling to a tropical climate that had some high-crime areas. I figured having something that could stand inclement weather and stay hidden in my pocket would be good to have.

I've taken several dozen photos, with as many of the settings as I could play with, both preset and custom, and have been unimpressed. The photos actually look grainy, as odd as that sounds for a digital camera. The colors are not especially accurate. Also, it requires flash for just about everything.

If you need shock proof and water proof, then get this. If not, there must be better cameras. Unless I can find a way to get reasonable shots, I'm probably going to sell mine after this trip and get something else.

P.S. My standards might be too high; I haven't really seen non-SLR photos for a long time. Also, although I understand why they have their special memory card, I would have preferred getting a camera with a more standard card.
