was this camera worth buying

At the price point, absolutely. It takes good quality photos and videos with minimal user skill required. My only concern is making sure I have a spare set of AA batteries close at hand.

I personally feel this camera is a rip off its a stripped down bare bones camera with no memory the 40 power zoom would be great if Olympus didn't use the cheapest lens made long distant zoom is nothing more than a big blur spend your money on the more expensive Olympus 3d hd 20x zoom camera mine cost 369.99 + tax and shipping just plan on $400 or more for a real Olympus trust me you will be glad u did one last thing a lot of the cameras out there are refurbished and you will find in many cases the seller fails or simply forgets to state that fact to them its a new camera.

Despite my purchase, I'm the wrong guy to be asking. I'm sure it's a good, versatile camera. But I was deluded as to size. I wanted something that would slip in my pocket -- this is too cumbersome to do so. I am neither recommending nor not recommending. Good luck.

It was a OK camera, however the E500 is a better one. I upgraded my to E510 the semi-professional and still have it and have not changed it for the purposes. However, if you want a beginners SLR then get the E300.

yes....it's a great little camera. Takes great pictures as well as video. We have recorded a few videos and used for our powerpoint presentations at our church. Very nice.

No, this camera was junk. I returned it because it stopped working after 1 week and they said they would refund me shipping and they didn't.

Yes but buy something more modern unless you're getting a really good deal on it. I got it back in December for $50 and wish I had spent more on a Canon or Sony.

I only had the camera for about a week before I returned it. For simple photos, this camera is fine but otherwise I would advise against getting it and perhaps spending a few more bucks on a better one like a Nikon or Canon. Otherwise yes, as I recall it came with all of those

Yes, I am very happy with this camera. I use a Leica M9, how ever it is not suitable for all circumstances, this camera fills in the gaps.

the camera is awesome! hard to find in stores and reasonably priced. not issues interior or exterior and takes really great pics and easy to use. I hope that I answered your question

Yes. It is a new camera. The bundle is very worth the price. The only downside is that the additional lenses are really bad, non professional but the camera is excellent.

Just wondering if you purchased this camera and, if so, what you think of it. Lisa Gelber

Yes I bought mine brand new years ago. I did not expect it to be a very good camera as I paid a heck of a lot for it. But I did get to lens with it one close the other far. It is totally computerized but you can do your own shooting if you wish. Here is what I can say about the camera. You would think only 14.2 mp wouldn't give you a perfect picture? Well let me tell you the pictures it gives are way to perfect and I will say I'd like to see you shoot a bad picture! As you won't. I'd buy it and have the best fun you ever have experienced!

Yes, generally it takes good pictures. It also has a little box that recognizes faces. The sound quality on the little videos it takes is amazingly good.

No. The camera was obsolete three months before you bought it. Save your money for your next camera. Parenthetically, the DLux 6 is a very good camera. I use mine a lot for still shots and video and the color accuracy is excellent and the pictures are sharp and excellent to look at.

It is a good camera for taking any kind of pictures. I think you'll like it,and the price is good.

It is certainly a good camera for its price. In bright light pics and videos are good. HD quality and Wide-angle are not as good as some expensive cameras, but the 3-D Pics and 3-D videos viewed with 3-D glasses (Blue/Red) were amazing. As a starter 3-D Camera it is ideal.

Yes. Great camera for the price. I've taken over 1200 photos. 3- burst mode settings. Nice
