    Strengths: Price is low nowdays

    Weaknesses: XD card is expensive

    Overall Evaluation: Overall a good camera, and I believe it worth the money. However, the unique XD card is really an issue. And the image quality is OK. Hope olympus can find a way to use cheap memoery card.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Great price for a 6.2MP camera, compact design good for pockets, easy to use menus and dials. Decent telephoto.

    Weaknesses: LCD is only way to see what you are shooting, no "through the body" viewfinder.

    Overall Evaluation: If you are looking for a basic camera with high MP, this is a good pick. Nothing too fancy, basic operations with great results, good for entry level photography at a great price.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: 6 MP, 3X Optical, small, light weight, AA batteries, optional settings, built-in flash, good LCD display, good value for the money

    Weaknesses: No viewfinder

    Overall Evaluation: The camera was easy to operate out of the box. The controls are intuitive. Takes good pictures. The price is good representing a good value. If you want a high resolution low cost this is a good choice. Since it uses standard AA batteries, it keeps the cost of batteries down and enables available of off the shelf batteries in a pinch.

    Strengths: easy to use, comes w/ a xD card, zoom...

    Weaknesses: still trying to get the shutter go faster, but I am a newbie..

    Overall Evaluation: This is my first digital camera and it great! It is way better then buying disposable camera's, which I have been doing. It's going to save me money in the long run. Plus now I can erase the pictures that don't come out. It's a great little camera!
