Waterproof and sturdy, but picture quality suffers
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 mountain in wintery conditions, and when I... Read full review »
Adequate Camera for Extreme Adventures
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 pack.
The Stylus 790sw on paper seems to...

Nice camera, but might return mine..
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 cameras tend to get lost/stolen/given away before... Read full review »
I love it!
I love this camera and would recommend it to any amateur photographer looking for a more rugged or outdoor camera. I loved the fact that it was shockproof. That is something that drew me to this particular camera in the first place. I have a tendency to drop things so its an excellent feature... Read full review »
Great little underwater camera with video! Updated
My Olympus Stylus 790SW digital camera had to be sent back to Olympus after its first use this year. The darn thing turned on, but all operations were frozen. Olympus fixed the camera, but to my dismay never indicated what the original problem was. I only received a notice on the slip inside the... Read full review »
Pretty amazing camera
This camera was pretty amazing. I bought it in preparation for a vacation which included snorkeling a coral reef and subject to general abuse expected during other sporting activities.
The camera was simple to set up. We bought a 1 Gig xD card for storage and after a few home shots took...

Would return mine if I could
I would definitely not recommend this camera for anyone buying it for the waterproof feature. I have a great Canon camera that takes excellent pictures but bought this camera to take underwater photos and for use when kyaking, boating, etc. I used it once under only a few feet of water and after...

Awesome
I love this camera. I have used it kayaking and in the pool to take movies and awesome pictures. I have taken it snow skiing in some very cold conditions, and has worked without fail. The only problem I am having is getting it from my Wife. Read full review »
okay shots on 'auto' outdoors, but set your ISO indoors
Have had this camera for a few weeks and taken indoor pictures, and some outdoor winter pictures. Wanted ONE camera that was rugged enough for outdoors but also for indoor portraits for newsletters and glossy mags.
Indoors, you're best to set its ISO manually to 400 or less otherwise...
