The camera was complete with the box and cable, which many of the listings do not have. The instructions are easy to follow, the camera is a basic model,and the price was very good. I have not owned a compact digital camera for a very long time, and had forgotten how easy they are to use, the pictures can be loaded onto a computer or laptop, and the images are of a good quality.

As an owner of the original Olympus 1.3 megapixel camera I was past due for an upgrade. I liked the features on my original so figured a newer version ought to be an improvement. I was not disappointed. This 5 megapixel has great resolution and fantastic ease of use. The small size makes it easy to carry in your pocket or bag/pack to take it any where. Using a 1GB xD you can take hundreds of photos at high resolutions. Keep larger cards to hand for recording video. The only down side I've found is that the Pict Bridge cable isn't compatable with all printers. This is not really a big deal as I just put the xD card in the printer instead. You could also run the cable to the computer.
Olympus cameras; This is my 5th Olympus camera. 1st one got stolen; still got 2nd camera. 3rd,4th and 5th cameras were bought for the wife and grandchildren. Brilliant photos achieved with all cameras and all users. Best bit is that they are so cheap on e-bay; for the money, you can't really go wrong. Excellent cameras; would recommend to anyone.

The scene modes are a bonus, with the easy selection via a dial. It could have benefitted by a bigger lcd panel but the quality is excellent for a first time digital camera user. Howver i am a big fan of the olympus range of digitals.
I bought this for my 9 year old Granddaughter and it did not disappoint, being quite small. There are 10 preset shooting modes for simplicity, 'Auto' seems to cope with most situations. The on/off switch on the front is ideal for little fingers and there is an adjustable power off mode to save batteries (2x AA). The 5.1 megapixel is more than enough for excellent picture quality, the only restriction here is just 4x zoom - which is digital zoom. Now the bad news - this camera takes XD memory cards, completely different to the normal SD, so if you need a new card expect to pay £15 to £20 for one of a decent size. To summarize - A great compact camera for young and old and I'm glad I bought it.
