Spotlight customer reviews
Excellent choice - great photos right out of the box.

The Olympus 1200 camera takes great photos right out of the box and will take spectacular photographs after applying the knowledge found in it's easy to read manual. Even without the manual and using only the easy onboard guide that the camera presents, your photos will be sharp and clear.
It's my opinion that those that have posted a negative response to this camera have left their posts prior to owning the camera for any length of time and learning its easy features.
In an earlier review someone stated that even a baby can use it. I won't say a baby can use it, but I know for a fact that a five-year-old was able to take super photos, and we have the prints to prove it.
For those that are not aware, buying a higher mega pixel camera does not increase sharpness, it only means that the prints may be made larger or cropped without losing as much clarity. If you plan to make reprints no larger than 8x10 the very highest you need is a 8MB camera.
This camera, at 12MB is mostly being used to make huge poster size prints. We are very happy with the sharpness and overall results of the Olympus 1200.
Great item as I thought I'll buy more in the future thanks

this is a great little camera, the only thing i think it needs is to have digital zoom or more of optical range, 3 isn't much, but asides from that, it's great. i would recommend it.
You pay for what you get.

I am sorry to say that I have been very dissapointed about this camera. Besides the stylish and slim appearance, this camera has lots of features. But what I really need is the picture quality. Even though it has 12 Megapixels, doesn't mean the picture will look great. So if you want a good quality for your home with an acceptable cost, I would proudly recommend you to use Canon Cameras, the only manufaturer I trust.
