Olympus Stylus 500 5MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had good experiences with Olympus in the past, so I picked up this camera when I wanted to get into the 5 MP range.This is an outstanding value.The LCD screen is like none other I have ever seen.It is huge.I loved it when I first saw it, and I didn't realize until after I got the camera home that it doesn't have a normal viewfinder at all.The only way to take a picture is with the LCD screen on.That alarmed me because I worred about battery life, but the battery life has turned out to be very long.I've used the camera on many occasions without having the charge the battery.It's long lasting and reliable.

I like that I can charge the battery outside the camera, so I bought an extra battery and always keep my spare one charged up.Some other camera have to be charged with the battery inside, which makes keeping a spare harder.

This is super-light and small.It can be tucked into my purse and it takes up hardly any space at all.I adore the size.

One good test of a camera is how easily people unfamiliar with it can take pictures.I know that I never read the manual.It was immediately obvious how to take pictures or movies or review the old pictures, and other people have picked up on the use of this camera instantly, too.The on screen menus are informative and easy to follow without a manual.There are no obscure codes or symbols to decipher.

In the higher-end camera segment, this 5 MP with a sleek design is an exceptional buy.Highly recommended.
