Review: I have experience with high-quality cameras but wanted something simpler and easier to carry. The Olympus FE-280 won’t give you that crystal clear picture of a distant sailboat or mountain range a mile away, but I was able to capture seagulls in flight about 25 feet away with the sunset behind them with great results. The menu on the camera makes it easy enough for a 10 year old to navigate with a lot of the same functions as cameras costing $500+. In this case you get a bit more than you pay for.
