    Comments about Olympus Stylus-9000 Digital Camera (Champagne):

    Great camera, some things could be better.
    Great Zoom, Great 1st shot from turning on camera.
    Good button position; the shot button could be a little stiffer if you press too hard then it just takes the shot.
    Auto Focus could be better. Once shot is taken you have to hold the camera there for half a second for the shot to save otherwise it blurs out.
    The only other thing that I did not like is the charging. If it could be charged with a USB cable it would be an awesome feature.
    Landscape feature most time stitches pictures oddly. Not very smooth.

    Comments about Olympus Stylus-9000 Digital Camera (Champagne):

    The camera is excellent, good quality, good lens, good images. Only downside is when battery running low pictures from scene selections come out blurry and moved, so you need to have a full battery charged specially when taing picture at night.

      This is a great pocket size fully loaded camera. The zoom is amazing and can capture whatever you're trying to shoot, from closeup to distant. This was a step up from my "old" Olympus and it's perfect. I would recommend it to everyone.

      Comments about Olympus Stylus-9000 Digital Camera (Champagne):

      I have yet to stop loving this camera. It is everything I've been looking for, for several years. I have not found anything that I dislike about the camera except there isn't a separate view port. But that is fine. Its minor. I am still learning to use the countless settings and functions it has. Auto AND manual settings. Now that probably the best part. I love the 10X Opt. zoom and the different uses for it. I already had a microSD card and I won't have any problem running out of space. I could go on and on but you get the idea. Freakin cool!!!!

        Comments about Olympus Stylus-9000 Digital Camera (Champagne):

        I use the product for recreation: pictures of friends, family, special events; and for some amateur photography (usually outdoors). The zoom quality is excellent and you can tailor the settings to fit your specific need very easily, without much of a learning curve. The only thing that could be better is the shake control or internal stabilization, but I think it may be the best you can get for this type of camera. Overall, this is an excellent product and the price is the cherry on the sundae.
