Olympus C765 Review: The camer
a has been superb in taking detail photos of my architecture models. No details are forgotten when using the zoom. Everything u need to take quality photos are at your finger tips. Only set back was that the camera came with a 16MB storage card. Also the price was too high, even when buying at CompUSA. Other than that, the product is working just fine.
Olympus C765 Review: I got this camera recently as a replacement for my 4 years old C-700 that broke when I dropped it to the ground by mistake. Although some reviewers said that this camera is bulky in comparison to other popular digital cameras, I find it more compact than my old camera and does not look silly even if you bring it to a party & etc. However, due to its protuded lens part, it won’t fit into a small camera case so choose a medium camera case if you are looking for one.
The camera is pretty fast and gives a clear photo. Tripod is a must for a dark room since a hand vibration could cause blurred photo like most digital cameras. It doesn’t bring out big red spots like my old camera in the dark room, but taking photo with a night mode is slow. Taking video with this camera is pretty good in a lit area. The instruction booklet is hard to use and playing with a camera might be a better learning technique. You can set the camera in Japanese, English, French, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and Russian (prob) so the camera itself is user friendly for international people.
Olympus C765 Description: Here’s your chance to shoot like a celebrity, sports or wildlife photographer. With the extremely compact C-765 Ultra Zoom in your hand you’re able to move into new subject areas and aesthetics. For example, its 10x zoom power lets you capture a frame-filling shot of your favorite player on the pitch. This digital camera not only gives you the optical power to explore new territory and subjects. With its four million pixels, innovative TruePic Turbo processing system and array of shooting features, you can be sure your images have the clarity and color to really come alive.
Olympus C765 Review: This camera takes great pictures. This is my first digital camera and I know how to do the basics. The manual didn’t do a good job explaining how to use the more detailed features. The camera is very light and I like the fact, that it shuts off, after it is not being used for 3 minutes. I am very happy with this purchase.
Olympus C765 Review: I bought this camera one year ago,after doing extensive research for 2 months reading other reviews online. I have never had a camera capture the true pure colors of what I was photographing like this little gem does. I love the 10 optical zoom and even took a few not too bad 40x digital zoom of birds outside my dining room window. However, like life it does have it’s little quirks. It is not the greatest camera for low light indoor pictures ie.in a restaurant. The camera needs a tripod for low light focusing.
Also, Olympus really should include a better paperback manual instead of having it on a CD. I actually went to my office & downloaded the CD to paper and understand now why Olympus put the info onto a CD! I now have a 124 page BINDER! It took me a little while to get use to the tiny XD card & the lithium ion battery. Use to it now, no big deal. I had no problems when I went to Italy,using an adaptor convertor,some people on our trip did though with other camera models. I bought my adaptor at Radio Shack. To download pictures easily to my lap top I use a DAZZLE digital media adaptor.
Olympus C765 Review: My husband just bought us this camera, and we love it. We’re both long-time photographers, and have run the gamut from high-end SLRs to PHDs (Push Here Dummy.) This camera is excellent for everything we do with it, from adding images to our website (see www.pathfindersfarm.com to compare some photos which were scanned in to those which came straight from the camera) to selling things on Ebay, to making prints to send to grandparents.
It is simple to use, easy to get started (no need to read the entire manual unless that’s your thing), and painless to transfer files to computer or printer. I do agree that a larger memory card is a must-have from the get-go, and we also purchased the USB reader, although you can connect the camera directly to your computer with the provided cable if you wish.
The only downside I’ve found is that it can be hard to see the screen in bright daylight, but it’s easy enough to switch to the viewfinder in those situations. The color is clear, the depth of field excellent, and the detail glorious. If you’re thinking of buying this camera for home or light office work, don’t hesitate, go for it!
