Reviews on Olympus Stylus 790 SW and Olympus Stylus 850 SW?

Question

First of all, which one of the two cameras would you say is better? There is a BIG price difference and I wanted to know if they were that different. Second, are they even that good of cameras? I have read some other reviews and most people say that they are simply amazing, yet others say that they are horrible! I have been wanting a good digital camera for a long time now. I would be using it mainly for nature photos, but also random, everyday photos. What would you suggest? Does anyone have any picture or video clip samples taken with this camera that I could see?

As for the 850 SW, it's too new and there are still no available reviews (at least not good enough).





Anyway, the 850 SW model doesn't seem to add anything interesting in terms of additional photographic quality -or, for that matter, even operative qualities.





So, if the 850 SW is that much more expensive, I'd definitely suggest going for the 790 SW model.

Answer 2

if the photos are superb, then i do no longer think of there is no longer something incorrect with it. my old digital camera made a "beeping noise" once I push down on the shutter button to concentration it. btw, how is the digital camera in water? i'm questioning approximately getting it.

Answer 3

I haven't used the camera but this site is full of reliable reviews on cameras
