The Olympus 820 is crap - do not buy this piece of junk
For 20 years I've been a user of the Olympus Stylus cameras first film and then a Stylus 410 (took on the appalachin Trail for 2100 miles). They were great! However beware!! This 820 is trash. Very, very poor quality pictures, even during the day. This company needs to repay folks for their purchase. They should not get away with putting out a product like this. There are too many folks that have the same poor quality that I have.

Very Disappointed
The Stylus 820 has a short battery life, the inability to turn the power off while connected to the computer to conserve battery life, it locks-up while taking pictures requiring removal of the battery to restart, the images are often blurry even when using a tri-pod, and the cheap plastic battery cover broke the first week and had to be replaced. Crap! Crap! Crap!

Please don't purchase this camera
I am a huge olympus fan and was looking for a small camera to replace my chunky C-765. The Stylus 820 was given to me as a gift and I've tried to use it, but every photo is blurry. I've adjusted the settings, I've used the highest quality settings, etc - nothing changes it. And I'm not shooting professional photos, but when an average group photograph in the middle of the day with no extremes (lighting, colors) and it STILL can't turn out? Its just a bad camera. Its begun to freeze on me, requiring me to take out the battery and put it back in. Its too late for me to return it to Olympus, but I'd just strongly discourage anyone from purchasing this camera.

Look away! Do NOT buy this hunk of junk!
I take many many pictures and I absolutely HATE this camera. The only pics that come out barely average are the outside pics. The inside pics are dark and blurry. I have messed around with the settings and still cannot get any sort of improvement! Do NOT buy this camera. For what I have been readng you want the Fuji Finepix f40fd, the Cannon Powershot SD1000! I purchased the Fuji and so far LOVE it! The higher the ISO number, the better. Good luck! Happy shopping!

Very pleased with the camera.
This camera is easy to use and takes great pictures. Perfect for my needs. This is the 3rd Olympus camera I have owned. I consider myself a loyal customer.
