Advantages: Compact and sexy!

Disadvantages: Software unreliable

I've been looking for a digitial SLR camera for a while now but I'm not the cleverest person when it comes to photography as I'm just starting to learn. I therefore wanted something simple, compact and easy to use.

I liked this camera as it was simple enough to use and it really does fit in your handbag girlies (once you detach the lens of course) but I've had to send it back as the computer software I got with it would not work on three different pcs. It loaded etc but it wouldn't convert certain photos. So I've had to send it back.

Instead of ordering another one, I've asked for a refund as I've noticed from shopping around a bit more that I was majorly ripped off. I paid £ 430 for this camera and you can get it elsewhere for less than £ 300!!!

I think I will stick with Canon in the future even though this was a nice looking camera!

Summary: I won't buy another Olympus!
