Adequate Camera for Extreme Adventures

Date of Review:  May 25, 2008
The Bottom Line: A great little camera for the avid adventurer but picture quality and battery life are huge set backs.
Review: I purchased the Olympus Stylus 790 SW Digital Camera to take on my mountaineering trips because I was tired of lugging my big and heavy Nikon SLR worrying about whether or not it would be damaged by moisture, cold, dropping, or being crushed in the...

Waterproof and sturdy, but picture quality suffers

Date of Review:  Mar 31, 2009
The Bottom Line: It's durable for quick shots you want to e-mail, but for lasting memories, it'll produce disappointing, grainy shots.
Review: I was envious when my husband bought his new Olympus Stylus 790 SW; it was smaller than my Canon point and shoot, had more mexapixels (7.1) and, best of all, it was waterproof. But then I relied on the camera when we renewed our vows at the top of a...

Nice camera, but might return mine..

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: Wouldn't buy one unless the ruggedness is higher priority than the picture quality and the risk to take the shot at all. Would not recommend to a friend.
Review: I got this camera to replace a previous all-weather Olympus I had. I travel 'far away' both for work and fun and I have some mil-spec gear. Waterproof has been great for snow shots although lately I am more often in sandy/dusty places. That said my...

Bulletproof!
5/5 stars
This camera went through extreme experiments where it was dropped 5 ft. to solid ground, drowned in running water, stuck in freezer for 5 minutes, and dumped in sand. Overall it is shatterproof, waterproof, freezeproof, sand/dustproof, and probably bulletproof Just kidding but it still past every test the manufacturer claims. I give it 5 stars. Excellent product. Happy shopping and take care. Thank you. Pros: Great clarity in photos, Optimum zoom capability, Damageproof Cons: Nothing, Nothing, Nothing
