Editorial Reviews : The compact Olympus Stylus Zoom 115 QD camera has a precisionautofocusing system that ensures sharp, clear pictures. Its fullyautomatic operations include autofocus, auto exposure, film loading,and film rewind. The 3x, 38-115mm zoom lens lets the photographershoot everything from wide-angle views to telephoto close-ups. The variable-power flash provides soft illumination, giving your subject natural skin tones even at close range. When your subject is backlit or under artificial light, the color-balancing flash fires automatically. In night portrait mode, the camera automatically lowers the shutter speed to ensure that both foreground and background are properly lit for night scenes. If your subject is in both bright light and dark shadow, the fill flash softens the sharp contrasts, giving the scene a more natural look. However, in those cases when flash photography is not permitted, or if you want to capture that 'moody' special effect using just available light, a flash-off mode is also included.
Buyer Reviews : Ten years ago my Dad purchased an Olympus All Weather camera for me for my birthday when I was still in college. Prior to that time I had been using a Kodak 110 to capture all of my fishing and backing images. Let's just say it did not fair well with the rain, snow, dirt and pine needles that came it's way. Enter the Olympus...
Having survived almost every imaginable torture my original camera final met its maker when it fell from a cliff in the Cascades. I knew what I had to do; replace it with a Stylus.
As with the original Olympus I used for years, the 115 QD has demonstrated that it can take fantastic pictures in questionable circumstances. Although the camera is very small relative to my large hands, I find it easily manipulated and steadied. It takes near flawless photos. Unlike it's grandparents, the 115 can comfortably fit in one's front pocket and takes virtually no space on camping and fishing trips.
I figure I'll have this camera until it takes a leap of faith, as did my previous camera. Olympus is shooting 100% in my book.
