"Design Flaw"
Pros: The Macro Mode is better than most cameras and the video had better sound than other cameras
Cons: The Olympus Stylus Cameras has one major design flaw which is the battery cover. A piece of cheap plastic is screwed onto a metal hinge and when you push the hinge closed the plastic is what keeps the door closed. It eventually breaks w/normal use
Summary: This would be a good camera for everyday use, but I will not buy another Olympus until they make the battery cover stronger that it will not break from just opening and closing the battery cover. Their warranty is worthless as they will claim that you have dropped it when you try to get it repaired.
