Found specs on this camera at Olympus Europe web site. Basically it's a 4 MP camera with 3x optical zoom & 4x digital zoom. 1.8 inch color monitor.4 scene programs: Portrait, self-portrait, night scene & landscape. White balance is auto & sunlight, overcast, tungsten & florescent. 4 flash modes. Image processing is True Pic, pixel mapping, noise reduction in night scene mode, function shooting is 2 in 1 & panorama. It also takes movies but without sound, I think. Still image edit is re-size, rotation, sepia mode & black & white. This info. is highlights of what the average person would need to know to evaluate this camera.Lots more is on the web site. I've e mailed Olympus to get information on sales in USA but no response so far. No evaluation on Steve's Digicams either.Hope this helps. Rating at one star since I don't have any experience with this camera.

I had this camera for about 15 months and it stopped taking pictures. When I open the shutter to take pictures, it will not turn on. I try to press some of the other buttons to enable the camera to take photos and it turns itself off seconds after coming on. This camera has never been dropped or handled poorly. Considering it is in a metal case, I expected it to be more robust and last longer than 15 months. Since it costs nearly $200 to fix this, I will be buying a new camera and it will not be an Olympus.
