   Summary: Over exposure
As an earlier reviewer had stated about problems with the camera we to are now experiencing the same problems. Pictures taken indoors in low light were fine. Anything with window light or light from a light fixture became streaky. Additionally, pictures taken outdoors in any kind of sunlight looked completely overexposed.

We are now looking for a different make.

   Summary: Love this camera
Bought this one from Amazon this year and I have taken hundreds of pictures with it. Have even had some shown on our local TV news show. Easy to use and the pictures are outstanding!!! I LOVE this camera!!!

   Summary: Strange Problem
I received this camera as a birthday gift. The pictures turned out so well and the camera was so easy to use everyone in my family eventually bought one. However, after one year of use the camera started malfunctioning. (Naturally after the warranty expired) Pictures taken indoors in low light were fine. Anything with window light or light from a light fixture became streaky. Additionally, pictures taken outdoors in any kind of sunlight looked completely overexposed. These problems have rendered the camera completely worthless. My brother, who also owns this model as well, is just starting to encounter the same problem. His camera is also approximately one year old.

   Summary: Excellent photos
I purchased the Olympus D-550 from Amazon last year. Since then I have taken plenty of excellent photos with this camera. I haven't looked into adjusting any of the settings- I simply just point and shoot. After returning from trips and sharing photos with friends with different cameras, the photos from the Olympus D-550 have always been of better quality than my friends' pictures. My friends have mostly Canon digital cameras, which are smaller, more popular and trendier, but the quality is nowhere near that of the Olympus D-550. It also takes good photos in low light situations. You do need to buy rechargable batteries with this camera, as the batteries will run down probably after 2 full days of taking pictures. But I think this is a problem with all digital cameras and should be expected. If you are interested in excellent quality photos and are okay with having a camera that is slightly larger than the current Canons on the market, I would highly recommend this camera.

   Summary: 5-Star Camera* * * * *
When I first set eyes on this camera I fell in love with the pop-up flash. Not just that the outcome of it's photos are amazing especially on bright sunny days. This camera is a must have for those looking to take there digital photography to a whole new level, 3.0 mega pixels. I use this camera with a HP Photosmart 1315, and they get along well and always provide me with beautiful, vibrant photos. I was very pleased with my first photo which was an 8x10 of my young nefews. This camera is truly amazing but, there are some must have accessories:
--RECHARGABLE BATTERIES
--LARGER CAPACITY SMART MEDIA CARD, (16MB INCLUDED)
**Go ahead, make the purchase & you won't be dissappointed**
GUARANTEED
