great little camera December 14, 2009

I have owned my camera since 2006 and I love it. I think its a great bargin, it has lots of features and enough bells and whistle to make it challenging if you want to get out of the automatic option and try some different kinds of digital photos. Easy to use!
 AWESOME! November 26, 2009

I have used this camera for 3 years. It has amazing picture quality, easy to use, and has an AMAZING battery life. I love this camera and if anything ever happens to it I will promptly buy the same one if still available!
Olympus Stylus 710 Review February 16, 2009

I love this camera! It takes beautiful pictures and is easy to use! The screen is very large for the sleekness of this camera.
Love the camera, hate the battery door! January 2, 2009

We've had this camera since April 2006. I've been extremely happy with it overall. It's light, easy to carry around, has a fast shutter speed, decent zoom, reasonable price, and takes pretty good pictures.
However, my battery door broke. My friend has the same camera and it's happened to her TWICE. Each time it needs to be fixed Olympus' customer service charges a flat rate $105 repair fee and then they try and get to to pay them an extra $x to upgrade to a newer version of the camera you already have. It's a total racket. Although they won't tell you this directly, you CAN order a replacement part and fix this problem yourself. I was able to find one online for twenty-two dollars, including shipping and it was very easy to replace. I hope this helps someone! :)
Good camera, but I think there are better November 13, 2008

I used this camera on a trip to the Galapagos Islands and mainland Ecuador. It is capable of getting some truly great shots and many of my photos look professional quality. I will spend more time on the downsides of the camera than the up, because it seems like the reviews are innundated with positive reviews already. And the camera certainly does have its drawbacks. Granted, I was a fairly heavy user, spending weeks in the rainforest and on fine, sandy beaches, hiking and doing other activities.
First off, the LCD screen cracked, which isn't a huge deal, but some other reviewers may say it is very hard to do... it's not that hard. Next, other parts did come loose, although they didn't fall off, and made the camera a little harder to use. Although it is marketed as weather-proof, a better term is slightly weather resistant. It couldn't seem to get a decent photo off in the rain, even when we stumbled on a tapir, quite a rare sight.
The zoom is practically worthless, but better than nothing, I suppose. On all of my pictures, I have to adjust the color saturation because the camera's normal pictures are somewhat dull-colored compared to real life; not a big deal, really, just an extra hassel. The "mode" settings suck, rare does one actually give you what you want. Night pictures are impossible, it is very hard to set the camera to a slow enough shutter speed to turn out with a good picture. The camera has an incredibly hard time in bad lighting (into sun, cloudy skies, etc), though so do all cameras, however, this one seems a little bit worse than most.
After saying so many bad things, I feel a little guilty, the camera really is pretty good overall. It is slim and easy to carry around. The quality is great, as long as the lighting is good. The macro is amazing.
Bottom line: I just want you all to realize the drawbacks it has before buying. It is a good camera, and pretty cheap nowadays so if you are on a budget, this may be a good pick.
