Review: Love the camera - hate the software! - We bought this camera as something we could easily share with our children, take snorkeling and to swim meets and not have to worry about wetness. It does a fabulous job and we have been very pleased with the results. It's the perfect camera for this price range! I do however have major issues with the software it comes with. It's very difficult to navigate out of and I cannot figure out how to keep it from being the default program that opens whenever I put in a photo card or plug in the camera. It somehow has installed itself on both of my memory cards - the one I use for my cannon photos is now infected with this software! While I'm sure it's a wonderful program, most of the time, I just want my raw files. This immediately opens, boggs down the system, and starts downloading files - even though my systems defaults say otherwise. I would like the option of using this program, so I don't want to delete it entirely. I don't think I'll buy another Olympus because of this virus of a program!
Review: Not what I expect from Olympus - I bought this for vacation in an emergency when my other Olympus got a scratch on the lens and I needed a replacement fast. I didn't have much time to do research, but let me save you the time... *No lens cover. What camera doesn't have a protective lens cover??? *Battery life IS TERRIBLE. I had to bring along the old camera with the lens scratch because I didn't have enough batteries to take many pictures. *I like that it's waterproof and shatterproof, but so isn't the Stylus Tough I had- and it was made much better. I wouldn't purchase again and wish I could have returned it. Unfortunately, it was through a 3rd party seller with a 7-day policy, and we were not back by then.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Love the camera - hate the software!

### ⭐ Not what I expect from Olympus
*by M***L on August 27, 2010*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent and tough "real" camera. great for kids too!
*by P***M on July 30, 2011*

Excellent! Works wonderful. Great picture, great video. It is easy to use and durable. I bought it for my 7 year old son. I looked at child durable cameras, but they were plastic or had poor quality and low usage. We planned a trip to Sea World and we realized that this camera is perfect. It can go into water, even salt water, and can handle minor drops. It is a real tough camera (that can even survive a clutz like me). Now other family members want one of their own!
