What others said in review
CNET has a review of the Olympus Stylus 760 and writes, " Our testing yielded reasonably sharp photos with well-resolved details in the center, although there were a few spots where postprocessing smeared some edges–a common problem in compacts. Colors tended to be a bit too cool but appropriately saturated, and measured noise was surprisingly low, appearing as only a moderate grain even at ISO 800. At ISO 1,600, however, the photos exploded with noise-driven speckles and fuzz. As you’d expect from the narrow, short-range zoom lens, distortion was almost nonexistent, barreling only slightly at the edges at its widest. Though its images aren’t perfect and it’s a bit sluggish, the Olympus Stylus 760 is still a good compact camera. Its light, pocketable design and logical, simple features make it a fine choice for anyone who wants a small camera he or she can take nearly anywhere."
Steve’s Digicams has a review of the Olympus Stylus 760and writes, "the Olympus Stylus 760 continues the tradition of the Stylus line by offering good image quality, great performance, and sleek design all packed in a weather resistant shell. This model rose to the top of our list in this series. The image quality could be better and unfortunately it uses the incredibly slow xD memory cards that Olympus and Fujifilm designed (we hope someday they’ll switch to SD). If you’re in the market for a versatile little pocket-digicam that you can take out into the rain, look no further. With an MSRP of about $249.99, we feel it offers an outstanding value and should be a very popular model this year."
