Broken camera door from first day. Take a pass
340891
I bought this camera about 2 years ago and only just getting to review it. The batter door was broken from first day of use and I've only used it 2-3 times after sticking tape on it and holding it firmly while in use. Can get embarrassing when you ask someone to take a picture and the batteries slide out...garbage camera. Would not buy again had I read the reviews.

Bought this camera for my 7 year old who wanted a real camera. Four days after we received it the shutter lens wouldn't open on its own, two weeks into using this and the battery door fell off, guess I got what I paid for.

I retained this warranty to cover a Nikon J4 Camera Bundle.  In March 2015 the camera's battery door was broken so I sent it in for repair (they use a company called United Camera).  The camera was sent back "repaired" and I didn't use it till I took it to Europe on holiday, the battery door popped off yet again the first day of use.  So when I returned on August 18th I sent the camera back to repair the door yet again, and had to include the lens which was reading an error.  The camera and lens was sent back on August 29th when I removed it from the box and opened the battery door it popped off... so once again they DID NOT REPAIR IT.  I also couldn't check to see if the lens was repaired because I couldn't put a battery in the camera. On September 3rd I returned the camera and lens for the 3rd time to United Camera.  I called Smart Guard 9 times since to try to get to the bottom of this, and see what is going on with my camera...each time they are polite and reassuring, telling me they are waiting for a part, but I still today October 14 do not have a camera or a lens that works.  It is my opinion that this company does not honor their warranty.  At this point they should have replaced both the lens and the camera.  I used Square Trade on eBay with a 100% satisfaction.  When I sent in a product that could not be repaired I received a check within 2 weeks.  I am not sure why AMAZON, such a reputable company would attach this company to a product they sell

I just bought this camera and like it for the most part.  I have not really gotten a feel for batter life, but it has been running so far with one good charge at least 45 minutes in all.  The major gripe I had with it, was that if I wanted to take video without having the door open it was almost impossible.  I wanted this option so I can mount the camera to my bike and video without the screen flapping in the wind.  Normally there is a sensor that turns the camera off when the door with the screen is closed.  The only way to shoot video with the door closed was to set it for motion sensing and then get it to start recording, then close the cover - and then if I was lucky it would record now and then when it detected enough motion.  That obviously is not adequate if the intent is to shoot video (with the screen closed).  I ended up voiding my warranty (mine was used and did not have one anyway :-), and took the whole thing apart to find out how it worked.  The door with the screen has a small rectangular magnet near the bottom that activates a sensor in the camera body when the door closes.  To be able to use the camera the way I want to, I had to remove the magnet.  Seems like a poor design when it is not even possible to change this behavior using software.  Now at least I can mount it on my bike or whatever without needing to have the screen open.  I am not sure why they added this "feature" in the first place except that maybe they got tired of people complaining about battery life because the left it on all the time.

The night mode is not too bad if there is some light - it also has exposure adjustment so it can be bumped up +/-1 to help with the night video.  This is a cheap camera so low light is not it's strong point, but video is good enough for my needs.  Focusing is all digital which is not even a feature IMO.

The mount portion that attaches to the camera and screws into the device cracked in half the first time I used it.

Everything was going good until I had to transfer the front camera, then I couldn't do that. Not worth breaking it. Get a professional. Had to put my old screen back on. Want a refund.

I received this camera last year for Christmas (12/2004) and it is almost unusable now because the sliding door in the front doesn't switch the camera on. The door is on a thin, plastic rail that has bent and now it isn't positioned properly to hit the on switch. If I push the door in while I slide it open, it will turn on; however, in the middle of taking pictures it will shut off again.  I treated the camera like gold, too, always keeping it in a protective case and it was never dropped or banged up. I find it very frustrating that an expensive camera like this could be designed so poorly.

The camera itself has worked great, for the time that I've used it.  The reason I'm giving the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II a 1 star rating is Olympus's repair process. The system they use to manage, track, and contact customers about their ongoing repairs is archaic, at best.  Here's why:

I sent my camera in over a month ago after the shutter system stopped working (which happens to be a common problem if you Google it), and I received an email containing my name, a link to their repair website, and my repair order number.  Once you navigate to their website, you will fill in your name and your order number, and you are brought to a page that contains information regarding your repair order, including your repair status.  I checked this periodically for 1.5 weeks, when I finally saw that the repair status had been changed to "Pending Approval".  I waited another week, and the status had not changed.  I finally called them, when they let me know that they were waiting for me to submit payment details before starting the repair.  They hadn't request payment details from me beforehand in the process, and they hadn't notified me that the repair status had changed and required payment in order to continue.

(I also bought this off of Amazon 5 months ago, which falls underneath their warranty period, but the seller wasn't a Licensed Olympus Seller, so I recommend double checking who you buy the camera from)

After submitting my payment details, they told me they'd send it out as soon as possible. I continued checking the link for another week for the status of my repair, when I finally saw that they had attached a UPS Tracking Number to the page. I saw on the UPS Tracking Page that it was set to arrive in a couple of days, but I didn't receive it on the scheduled day.  After waiting a couple of more days, I called Olympus again, requesting an update on my now-lost camera, which they said they'd file a claim for.  They told me that the package had arrived successfully, and to check with my neighbors to see if anybody had received it (I live in an apartment building surrounded by other apartment buildings, so this was amusing), and gave me a lost claim number. They told me to call back sometime in the next 7-10 business days, which was their estimate for completing the claim, with the claim number as reference.  At this point, I was incredibly frustrated that they had no way to notify me about any updates in any of their processes, so I looked into my delivery details with UPS directly.  It turns out they had delivered it to Michigan, instead of Washington where I live, which I quickly notified Olympus about, hoping to see if there was any way to speed up their lost claim process.  They still told me to call in 7-10 business days.

TLDR; Olympus's repair process does not contain any modern software system that sends notifications to customers.  This has resulted in an incredibly lengthy repair process that will make you never want to deal with Olympus again.  If you're considering buying a mirrorless camera at this price point, I recommend going with a product from a different company.

When I first purchased this camera, I loved it. I was sleek, chic, and took nice pictures. I took about 450 images with it (not a lot) in the first year. Then, less than 30 days after the one-year warranty expired, the shutter and lens ceased functioning properly. It either continuously opens and closes when I turn it on, or it stays stuck open. In either case, I can't take a picture. My research for troubleshooting revealed this is a common problem. I tried a new battery, and every other recommendation I found. No success. I called Sony Service Center. They admit it is a common problem, but wanted to charge me a minimum of $107 to fix it. I suspect that if it is a common problem, it is a defect. They asked the "escape responsibility" question, "Did you drop the camera?" No. The camera looks beautiful - not a scratch on it - I kept it in a case. Right now, it functions as an attractive paperweight.

If I knew then what I know now, I would do more research and purchase a more reliable brand that repairs DEFECTS at no cost. As nice as it was when it was working, it is worthless to me today, 13 months and only 450 images later.

bought this camera to take along a hawaiian holiday.  the first few days with it, camera worked great.  Took it snorkeling, swimming in the pool.  Images and videos were nice and clear.  the 4th day of heavy usage, it wouldn't turn on and when I opened the battery door, water came out.  rest assured, I always checked to lock the door to prevent any accidental leakage but this thing was just dead.  So beware.  I guess next time, I will just with a go pro.

Went to pull the SD card one morning and found the unit lenses were moist. It was obvious that water had gotten in somehow. The camera was useless. I called Moultrie and they told me they did not guarantee their cameras to be water resistant (much less water proof). Surprise, surprise!
So what good is game camera that has to be installed outdoors if it won't keep moisture / rain / fog out? I didn't even get one season out of it. Subsequently, I took it apart. Cleaned and dried it, put new batteries and a SD card back in it. I tried to turn it on but the slide switch was also broken (plastic separated from the circuit board). It now partially works with no help from Moultrie. At least now I can get a few (non panoramic images). I reinstalled it with a roof over it. Oh, one other thing. It uses B batteries. Six of them and goes through them quickly. So, when you are looking make sure you find one that used 9 V batteries since that battery seems to last longer in most things. If not available that way get one that uses AAA or AA batteries!

The camera arrived defective, buyer will not offer a replacement.

This item had little to no cosmetic wear on it but as soon as i opened the camera to take the first photo the screen was just black but you can see the menu and toggle through it.

I will recommend to purchase a brand new one, if this happened within the first openning of the packgae I don't want to know what would of happened to it after the first 30-90 days.

The waterproof case has a latch that is broken, came broken. No way to close it and lock it.  Instruction booklet is useless. Camera is basic at best. I've had a few problems with it staying on while filming audio is horrible and you can not use a separate mic.
