i have one. how to snap a panorama picture? the option is disable for any type of pic scenes!! could anybody tell how. i'm using 4G XD M+ card.

Does this camera record videos?

[aremdvna]

Yes it records videos.

You have to use a Olympus XD M+ or H memory card to record at the best quality for the length of the card. You can record at 640x480 30 fps up to 18 minutes and 14 seconds on a 2GB XD M+ card.

If you are using the included MicroSD to XD adapter you can only record at 640x480 30fps for 10 second clips. If you want to record lower on this adapter you have to lower the fps to 15 or switch to QVGA mode.

Is there anywhere to buy it?

[faithfuldissenter]

I own one, got wet and destroyed; send it for free repair under garantee; but they told me that if it gets wet again they won't fix it.

[xStalkerxx]

hey man! does it really works fine after you take it out of the water? im afraid to submerge it underwater

[davomrmac]

Yes, works totally fine, very nice camera.

Iˇm ging to buy one, good review

[hunteratsea]

i just bought it..and had try it underwater...fantastic..the pics is good..

[patsfan83]

Woulden't the water get into the camera through the little holes in the speaker?

[davomrmac]

Everthing is sealed with rubber covers, seals, etc.

[KevyNova]

Good review but I am also interested in the video/sound quality of this camera. Would you recommend it for shooting youtube videos?

[davomrmac]

If you want something purely for doing this, then go for a Creative Vado. If you need the underwater ability though, then this is good, but for video you need good visibility.

[Warpedpeon]

Amazing review Dave! I like how you show more than just the camera, you give the whole picture and all you get. Thanks for another great review!

[alastairwparker]

well i was just guessing that the picture would blur since, ya know, it was under water

[chinanigans]

but wouldn't water blur the picture that you would be taking underwater?

[davomrmac]

Hi there, as you can see from the images on the Geekanoids website (just under the review), the water does not blur the photo. This was in a well lit pool, so in the sea it might be a bit more murky, but the flash would help there. The performance of this camera for the price is amazing.

[callmejosiah]

great review as always, I owned an Olympus awhile back and never had any complaints about it, so I can imagine not a whole lot has changed with the cameras they've produced since then... by the way, what video format does this camera shoot in, and is it iMovie compatible?

Awesome review
