Great Camera, June 24, 2010

This review is from: Olympus FE-4020 14 MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Zoom and 2.7-inch LCD (Blue) (Electronics)

This is a great camera,it takes great pictures. It is easy to operate. very light weight so you can take it with you everywhere. I have a few other cameras (DSLR) but find that most of the time I really do'nt want to lug around a big camera. So having a small camera makes it easy to take it along. I love this camera. The only thing I would like is that the battery would last longer and they are hard to find.
