Summary: great stuff
Review: it looks pretty nice. and thats what you'll get inside. excellent functions with its looks. i found it very easy to use but the camera seems sorta fragile with the lens and the slide. but havent had any problems yet. also its splash proof (semi water proof) so it'll be good taking photos in damp environments (rain, fog, blah...). so far i havent got any real complaints but to judge this camera by its cover.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Oly115QD, afine choice
Review: Its a nice easy to use compact with just enough extra telephoto lens for many purposes. Olympus is clearly the leader in compact 35's, I think its their main market.

Wife likes it better than my Canon Eos, I do to. You cann't turn the date system off if that matters.

Unit is made in China instead of Japan. Probably reduces cost. Hopefully quality and durability are good.

Summary: Poor Customer Service
Review: Perhaps I got a lemon, but my camera took poor quality shots, the viewfinder was off center, and the zoom broke. I sent it in to Olympus for warranty repair, and they said the camera was damaged by impact and refused to repair. I sent it back, and they have now agreed to rebuild, but the process has taken 2 months, and I still don't have my camera back. I judge a company's products on how they handle problems. I will never buy Olympus again. Perhaps my problem was the rare exception, since I bought based on Amazon recommendations, but I wanted to share my story.

Summary: An Excellent Camera with a Great Telephoto Lens
Review: The camera is compact, solid but light, and very easy to use. The images are very good to excellent. All the features seems to work just fine. The telephoto lens really brings images in. Its relative resistance to water-spray helps with boating photography. So far it has worked without a hitch. Though I own a digital camera, I believe that a film camera like this is still preferable for travel or for taking many pictures in a short time. All you have to do is plop a new film in and keep going, and then drop it off for development and you will end up with photos that will not fade out in a few years. I highly recommend this Olympus for an uncomplicated way of handling photography in an economical fashion and ending up with excellent results.

Summary: Very nice camera, BUT....
Review: We have bought six Olympus's for our large family of grown children. They are easy to use, relatively inexpensive, and compact. But, they have a major flaw. On three of the six cameras we have bought, the lins cover has broken and this prevents the camera from operating. The authorized service places in Houston Texas say they can not get the parts to repair this product deficiency.

Summary: Photo Enthusiast from Michigan
Review: Wow! What a camera! Resolution? Phenomenal! Picture perfect, as a matter of fact. I have yet to experience any electromechanical problems with this camera. The camera is exceptionally well crafted and finely appointed. The camera sits well in the hands and is easy to maneuver during photo opportunities. Exceptional picture quality! Are you looking for a camera that makes you, the photographer, look like a professional? Then you've found what you are looking for!
