I bought an Olympus FE-26 with 12.0 Mega-pixels and gave it as present to a friend of mine. She came back with enthusiastic words as she liked the easy way to operate the camera, the small size and light weight but with good size of screen (2.7"). She is happy with her present an I believe that this camera is recommend if you want simplicity and good quality if you're on a budget.
This is a good camera. Good 12 megapixel resolution. Good screen size. Menu navigation is not the easiest but you can learn pretty quickly. Camera size is not the smallest but unless you are planning on keeping your camera in your jeans pocket size is ok. It does not have a rechargeable battery it uses two AA batteries, which is not ideal.
The reason I was interested in this camera number one it's an Olympus; the second reason was for the price-$85.00 on e-bay for a new in box 12.0 mpix is a very good price, although this camera do'es not have the image stabellizer like the more high end stylus camera's Olympus make's but if you take your time with this camera and use a film shutter finger-"slow and steady" you will get fantastic picture's with this little camera; the print's you get from your computer with what ever photo software you use you will love the result's you get for a camera in this price range which are just as nice as the one's I get with my Olympus E-3, so if you want a high mpix camera low price that you can do more with your software this is the camera you want.
I liked this camera cause it is easy to use, Has some features that are a little confusing to find if you do not read instructions (like me). lol but over all it works good except that in dark places it doesnt really look good in the camera. for example the picture doesnt like if its really high quality. But over all its a good start :)
olympus to my point of view was not a good make because i never herd of it before but i got this one for a friend because it was for a good price but i gave him mine thsi camara is way better the image on it is awsome better than my old panasonic the pictures are great and very good resolution 12.0 megapixels is great.my next camara for sure is going to be an olympus.
