Comments about Olympus FE-230 Digital Camera:

I got the camera on short notice before a business trip to Hawaii. I did not have time to "learn" to use it, but found it very intuitive and easy to use. I carted it on a helicopter ride, in a submarine dive, to a luau and all around town. Most shots were great! On the negative side, I did not get great shots in low light, and it has a very long lag time, but does have great features like shake stabilization. All told, a good camera.

Comments about Olympus FE-230 Digital Camera:

Took a trip to Washington D.C., used camera for sightseeing, people shots, low light banquet room shots and video loops @ changing of guards @ tomb of the unknown. Camera was awesome, everyone wanted to use it. Performed well in most settings. Cons: Pics were dark & grainy in low light distance (50 ft.), also very slow lag time when in auto mode. LCD also dark in low light settings. Despite cons, still a great camera. With a little more experience, I should be able to correct these problems.

This camera has IMAGE STABILIZATION and it's really works. Taking picture never has been easier like this. no more blurry shot. No more dark or black picture. It's take a bright, clear and detail picture almost any situation.
