Cons: Middling LCD, picture quality inconsistent,video just OK.

The Bottom Line: Would buy it again, shortcomings and all. Simply nothing else like it out there.

Pros: Water proof, drop proof, easy to use, huge display, rechargeable battery

Cons: Not really a con but not as good picture quality as an slr.

Review: I bought this camera at Sams club without having done any research. I wanted a camera that would fit in my wife's purse and that she could use easily. We were about to go to Disney Land and I didn't want to lug around my larger digital or 35mm slr. I ...

Review: I got this camera to use on trips. After 3 days in my hand, {purchased at Beach Camera}, I dropped in a 1 gig card & off to Colorado to ski. In the snow, on a snowmobile, anywhere, this little jewel did a great job. The real proof is in the prints. I ran ...

Pros: Small, weather proof, great for snorkeling!

Cons: I cant think of any.

Review: I got this a year ago (Oct 06) from cruise ship while on vacation. My previous camera was also an Olympus but only water resistant (we had an underwater case for snorkeling)...then we saw the 720 while on the ship and that it is water proof. We bought it ...
