Great Everyday Carry Camera
By AjaxManifesto on Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2023
I bought this nice little camera for everyday carry. I have high end DSLR and mirrorless cameras along with pro lenses from Nikon and Olympus, so I'm not expecting this little guy to beat those other cameras out in image quality. This is a small, rugged, and waterproof camera that can be put in a pocket and exposed to harsh environments. It takes pretty good pictures and video. I partially LOVE the macro modes. I bought the guide light and silicone jacket accessories for it. With focus stacking and the guide light this little guy is very fun to explore the smaller things all around us. Put it in one of the scene modes or leave it in full auto to take photos of events, landscapes, people, etc. Again, it won't beat out its big brothers, but is excellent for everyday carry. As the old saying goes: the best camera is the one you have with you. Some would argue that a cellphone fits this space better. I disagree. This thing is cheaper than the high end cellphones, is more durable (both shock and waterproof), it has advanced computational photography features, and it has a whole ecosystem of accessories. I like the GPS features to include compass, altitude, and temperature. You can geo tag your photos and videos. You can also shoot in RAW format and import your pictures to your favorite photo editor. The free OM Workspace works just fine. Finally, the camera connects easily to the free OI.Share app on your phone so you can send your photos there to share with others. I love this little camera.

Was great but quickly has issues for me
By john cook on Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2024
Only had this about 2 months and had very high hopes for it. I will say that the macro and microscope feature is (was I should say) awesome and takes amazing up close shots. My issue with it is that is developed this purple glow directly in the center of the image and also causes it to become blurry. I am very familiar with cameras and the lens is clean, proper lighting with photos. The blurry purple spot also takes up about half the image with the use of microscope mode and a quarter with photo stacking mode. This camera has never been dropped or wet and has been treated like a high end camera. I was hoping to replace my big camera in the field with this for fungi taxonomy projects but looks like this will not be the case. Have to now send this back in for them to repair or replace. I bought this as a friend has one and has had no issues so I believe it might be a great camera but maybe just my bad luck of getting one with issues.
