Olympus FE-240 Review

Review Summary
Reader Score: 8.63 (out of 10)
Review: "The attractive, compact FE-240 measures 0.8 inch thick and weighs less than five ounces. Its small metal body fits comfortably in most pockets. Despite its small size, the camera's various controls are easy to manipulate, with buttons large enough for big thumbs to use.

Despite the Olympus FE-240's sluggish performance and almost complete lack of manual settings, it's still a pretty good camera for new users. If you simply want to take decent photos and don't want to fiddle around with a lot of menus and buttons, it's an acceptable choice...."

They're essentially identical cameras, except for the lens. While camera speed is not amazing and LCD is not always great outdoors, the camera takes solid, pleasing images. ..."
