Editorial Reviews:

Expand your view of the world. The FE-290 was built to let you capture more of all your favorite people and places. The wide-angle lens combines with 4x optical zoom and an extra large 3.0" LCD to fit more in every photo you frame. It's ideal for shooting everything from panoramic landscapes to indoor group shots where there isn't much room to back up.

Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5 Awesome Camera, but lacks manual settings
I've had this camera for about a year and I absolutely love it. The pictures are crisp even in low-light conditions (I hate using the flash, I prefer to take photos using available light), and the video capture is clean and clear with good sound quality.

The only places I see room for improvement are: 1) there is a bit of a lag between hitting the shutter button and the capture of the photo. 2) there are no manual settings on the camera whatsoever--no shutter speed, iso or focus adjustment. Last of all 3) the battery life is a little bit weak, but at least additional batteries aren't expensive.

All in all though, this is a great camera and it takes a beating, too. I've dropped mine a few times and it holds up great.

Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5 A lot more camera for a lot less money!
After 26 years of being in the hobby of photography, I have already outgrown the stage where I thought that the best cameras were simply the ones with the most number of bells and whistles. There was a time when I wouldn't even consider something inexpensive, thinking that surely it's features weren't the latest. Maturity has given me the wisdom of realizing that as far as my point and shoots were concerned (and I've had so many of these through the years), I have never really availed of much of these whatchamacallit features! The point of having a point and shoot, after all, is to be able to just point and shoot (and leave all the adjustings with your SLRs)! A few days ago, I ordered the affordable (inexpensive, not cheap) Olympus FE-340 and FE-290. Yes, I ordered both of them! I was attracted by the 5x optical zoom of the FE-340 and the 4x (with wide-angle) optical zoom of the FE-290, and I couldn't decide which one I wanted more. Well, it turns out that the combined price of both units were still less than the price of one comparable unit of another brand. More importantly, I simply trust the lens of the Olympus since I know that it is a long-time optical company that created an optical product, not just an electronics company that decided to dabble in cameras.

I like so much my camera but the battery unloading very fast. The moldels Olympus Stylus 710 The loading of the battery is more intense and it lasts more. In this Models FE-290 the wide screem 3 inch it is a success.

Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5 Simple with a Lot of Features
I love this camera. I was in the market for a digital camera for a while. I've been searching and testing for a long time. While, I'm not a professional photographer, I'm very picky about the things that I purchase. One of the important things that I was looking for in a camera was slimness, yet most of the cameras that were slim had very few features. This one is great, it's slim with a lot of high tech features, yet still easy to use.

One of the biggest plus is moving shots and shots behind glass still come out crystal clear! This camera is great and at a reasonable price.
