A great point and shoot 35mm camera

Small but versatile. This camera has lots of features. If you are still using film and want a compact camera that does it all, this is it!
Great product + great price = Satisfied Customer

I needed to buy my mother a new camera. She hates digital and rarely gets on her computer. She prefers a film camera which are hard to come by. I did a lot of research on different models and Olympus has several for film. I compared several newer models to this older model and found that even though it was older than most, it still had more options and a lesser price than any other model. More options plus lesser money? I couldn't pass it up.
My mother received the camera and is so tickled with the options available. She said that it's really user-friendly. She's one of those people that are technically challenged and this camera has an excellent user manual that makes it idiot proof. My opinion is this - if you prefer the film cameras don't bother with any other brand and get the most bang for your buck by getting the Olympus Stylus 100.
Beautiful pictures, highly recommended

I am so happy with my first roll of pictures - clear, and accurate to the detail. Simple to use and just enough options to create the best picture in all situations. Olympus Stylus 100 is highly recommended by me!
Disappointing experience
[ Posted: 2006-11-03 ]
I bought the Stylus 100 specifically for my trip to China. It started "eating film" in the 4th roll. I was unable to take any more pictures in China until I finally came upon a disposable - not an easy find. The pictures I did get developed were lackluster, and I wish I could just start over with a different camera. Unfortunately, my only recourse it to have it repaired. I would not recommend this camera.
Small Wonder

I'm a great fan of the Olympus Stylus Zoom line. They're tough, lightweight cameras and the "clam shell" design allows one to slip them into a pocket or small bag without having to worry about foreign matter getting into the works.
I bought this model (100 Wide) two years ago and fell in love with it right away. Now I've just bought another in case Olympus decides to go all-digital and stops making them. The 28mm focal length captures almost 50% more width than 38mm which is standard in this class. And it zooms out to an impressive 100mm telephoto.
Another feature that Olympus has added in recent years (have they really been reading my letters?) is the ability to over-ride the automatic focus and set it at "infinity." This allows one to shoot scenery through a window without the automatic focus focusing on the window surface rather than on the subject beyond.
It has a full range of flash options and does a very good job with "available light" (no flash) providing an automatic exposure time up to 4 seconds. I've used this camera inside European cathedrals with no flash and captured details hundreds of feet away.
