Customer Reviews:

Piece of Junk w/ False warrantee and horrible customer service.......2006-10-17

The latches on the battery/ media card door broke within 5 months from normal use and Olympus Service center staff pretended that they lost my reciept to drag out the time (so I get tired of waiting for my camera)and not fulfill my warrantee. After I sent them another copy of the reciept they told me that the repair is not covered because it is "impact damage" which is rediculous... if you scroll down through the reviews you will see that I am not the first person to have this problem with the camera or with the warrantee which Olympus does not deliver on. DO NOT BUY THIS unless you want to lose your money and time.

Dissatisfied with the camera & the company....love my new Nikon.......2006-07-26

I bought this camera for $140 which I thought was pretty good, but you really do get what you pay for. I used it maybe once a week, if that and took good care of it to avoid problems. However, I had it only 6 months before it broke.

One day, 6 months later I went out and needed the camera just to take some pictures for memories. So I hit the 'on' button, the lens extended out only half way and would not go back in. I had noticed it doing this a couple times before, where the lens would go halfway out and would not turn on, but if you just turned it off and then on it would be fixed. So i figured it was dead batteries. However, when it finally broke the batteries were fully charged, so it was not a matter of that.

I took it back to where I got it (best buy) who couldn't tell me anything (yea such a great "geek squad" who can't tell you what's wrong). So they told me they'd send it to the company and have it back in 4-6 weeks. So 8 weeks go by and still nothing, and at this point I was just fed up with Olympus because my graduation was coming up in the next week, I didn't have a camera and it was well over the 6 weeks. They didn't even bother to call and update me.

Best Buy was worthless because all they told me was it was "discontinued" which I found out later it's not, and gave me store credit only towards another one of their "fine quality" cameras.

I refuse to buy anything else by Olympus because they make inferior products, do not stick to deadlines or update you of the status, and don't tell you what the problem was withthe camera. With my "gift certificate" to Best Buy I bought a Nikon CoolPix which was $30 more and I am so much more satisfied. Batteries last longer, much better picture quality, slimmer, more picture taking modes. I'm just sorry I didn't get this one to begin with.

Not worth the money.......2006-06-29

I bought this camera 5 months ago . I used it only thrice. Took a total of 13 shots. Handled it gentle. The camera lid cover was not holding after 2nd use. The batteries kept dropping. I had to put a tape on the lid to keep the batteries in.

I mailed it to Olympus service in Cypress, CA. They tell me that is not covered under warrenty and I have to pay 83 dollars for repir. I told them to discard it as it is not worth even the postage.

I lost all my money.

I felt the camera is of poor quality and not worth even a dime.

Very good value - with picture quality to match........2006-05-02

I got this camera for my Mom when Fry's had it on a One Day sale for a ridiculously low price.

If you are a point and shoot person - give this model serious consideration and not the ones with more megapixel counts. More megapixels don't equate to a better camera. 4 MP is ample resolution for an 11X17 inch print. Plus the images are not as big (in terms of bytes) so the pictures are easier to manipulate and store, you don't need as big a memory card, and the simple fact that the pixels on the CCD are bigger leads to greater light sensitivity and less noise compared to the same size CCD with a higher pixel count.

The five stars that I give it, takes into account certain factors -
1) Its low price -
2) Small size

If the camera was priced twice as high, I would not buy it. But for its current price, it can't be beat.
What I like -
1) Very easy to figure out the menu's. But my mom might still need help.
2) Small size (little like an egg). Easily fits in a purse or pocket.
3) Exposure and color balance is better than a Kodak EasyShare C330 that I was able to compare it with.
4) Uses two AA batteries and the battery compartment/lid is well designed (attention to detail).
5) Has optical zoom with the coverage required in 80% of cases -for additional 10% walk to your subject for 90% coverage.
6) 28MB of camera memory is built in - so you can use it in addition to the external one.
Some shortcomings -
1) I intially had lot of low battery errors which went away after I switched to higher quality NiMH and used the camera for a while (the batteries were broken in before being used on the camera - so this is not a battery issue)
2) The lens opens and retracts rather noisily with a grating sound that is unpleasant to hear.
3) Uses XD memory card is proprietary to Olympus and Fuji cameras only. XD cost's a bit more - and you should factor that into the price when you purchase something. I hate it when manufacturers adopt proprietary formats.
4) The camera did not always figure out white balance correctly under artificial lighting and flash switched off. Not really a factor if you use the camera in the automatic mode only.
5) The mode selector dial on the side would move when taking in and out of a case - so it is possible to take pictures in the wrong mode accidentally.
4) Colors were a little on the yellow side.

Other comments -
The lack of viewfinder is not really a problem I think. The built in LCD works quite well and is somewhat visible even in the sun. The LCD is a bit small, but is quite sharp and works well for framing your subject. Hopefully the smaller LCD will be less prone to breaking.

Its picture quality is not quite what my Olympus C-4000 is capable of, but it still takes pretty good images that represent the scene well. But then, the C-4000 is much bigger, and even now, an equivalent replacement would cost 2 - 3 times as much. Not quite a fair comparison.

For its price the FE-100 is very good value and won't dissapoint you. I think it is the best in its size and price class. Much better pictures than a Kodak C-330 I have compared it with.

In my experience, only Canon and Olympus really have what it takes to make digital camera's that take great pictures. But with a Canon, you'll spend almost twice as much.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!.......2006-02-01

At first I thought that this camera was wonderful BUT it has a lot of things wrong with it...
1. It is NOT for fast picture taking, it takes a lot of time for the shutter to close!
2. If you don't have an arm made of stone then you will get extremely blurry night shots.
3. Goes through battery EXTREMELY quickly
4. There is a very slow rebooting time between shots
5. Zoom is choppy and hard to use
6. Only some of the photos come out when uploaded
7. Without the flash the pictures are very, very blurry
But this camera is extremely easy to use just take it out of the box and use it.
