Digital Cameras Ratings

I purchased this FE-3000 from Amazon.com on 5/4/2009 and when I went to download pictures on 7/25/2009 the LCD was out. I sent it in to the company (Olympus) and they came back with the story that the LCD was leaking and it must have been dropped and they wanted $69.91 to fix it. I have never dropped it or abused it. I have had three other Olympus cameras and never had a problem. I will never recommend this company again if this is the way they treat a long standing customer.

I just received my Powershot SD940.Originally I had purchased the Powershot SD780, but when this one came out two days later I returned it.I liked the bigger LCD on the 940 rather than the 780’s smaller LCD with an optical viewfinder.The 940 also has a 4x optical zoom compared to the 780’s 3x optical zoom.Something else I had not noticed until I received the product is that the 940 has an updated menu system.The menus are laid out more logically and can display help menus to inform the user of the cameras functions and options.This feature is not offered on the 780.After owning both cameras, I would recommend upgrading to the Powershot SD940 unless you need an optical viewfinder.The 940 offers better zoom, bigger LCD, updated menus, and stronger performance (I found that the menus operate more smoothly and with much less lag than the 780).These are both great cameras, and I should note that the 780 is a bit smaller and lighter.Unfortunately they both have rather flat buttons that are not raised above the surface which made it a bit hard to operate at first, but I quickly got used to it. I still STRONGLY recommended!
