    pleased, few complaints This replaced my Olympus Stylus 710 that was dropped 1 too many times in the 2.5 years I owned it. During those 2.5 years it had traveled all over North American and to 3 other continents and served me very well.
Very small, very easy to use, tons of features and settings yet easy to just point and shoot (which is largely how I use it).
The benefits of the Stylus 840 over the older camera are more optical zoom, larger lcd, and more megapixels (though for my purposes, ~6 MP is more than enough; picts with this at the highest setting are close to 2MB). There are a few other nice new touches too.
Biggest draw back? Olympus dropped the All-weather protection which is VERY disappointing and why went with Olympus in the first place. In fact, if I didn't already have a case, extra batteries, 2GB memory cards, and familiarity with the controls from my earlier Olympus, I might have considered a Canon.
With that said, I quite like the Olympus and have no regrets or complaints with the quality of the picts.
    Great camera! This camera is great for everyday users. It's relatively simple to figure out but has more complicated features for the more advanced user. The in-camera panorama feature is one-of-a-kind! The image quality is great. Slim and portable. The battery life is very decent.
    Great for us This is the first above-avg camera I've bought. It is small, durable, takes great shots, and has a fast shutter. No complaints
    Love this camera! I love, love, love this camera. It takes GREAT photos! I have been amazed! It's fun to experiment with all the extra settings but works awesome on automatic. A friend purchased a similar camera the same time I purchased this one. We compared photos and features and she immediately returned hers and traded for this same camera. I highly recommend it!
    Awful Picture Quality I was highly disappointed in the photo quality of my new Olympus Stylus 840. It takes the worst, grainiest pictures I've ever seen! I have no idea what camera the people below are reviewing.
