    The Olympus FE-370 features a compact body that contains the combination of a 1/2.35"-type eight megapixel image sensor and an Olympus-branded 5x optical zoom lens with a rather tight 36mm wide-angle. A 2.7-inch LCD display with 230,000 dot resolution offers the FE-370's only option for framing and reviewing images, as there's no optical viewfinder on this model. Read more

    In conclusion, the FE-370 is a great little point-and-shoot camera that can be taken almost anywhere. Olympus offers users a wealth of features in a convenient package that won't break the bank. If you are looking for a quality camera that won't require hours of manual reading just to figure out how it works than the Olympus FE-370 is the way to go. Read more

    I especially like its ease of use. Just look through the viewfinder, get a good shot and shoot with the mere touch of a button on top of the camera … No need to mess with complicated lenses as with an SLR camera and no need to physically advance the film. Read more

    I tried out the Olympus FE370 8 MP Zoom Digital Camera today at Best Buy. The camera is everything I want including a video feature. The totally cool part is Best Buy is trimming $50 off the already reduced price of $180 for the annual Black Friday sales extravaganza. I will be lining up with the rest of the mob at 5:00 in the morning the day after Thanksgiving to nab my Olympus FE370. Hey, $50 for a little inconvenience. What the heck. Read more

    In a nutshell the FE-370 is a snapshot camera with a bit of extra zoom. It compares well against other similar cameras and offers good value for money. Read more

  1. Great little Point and Shoot

    Reviewer: James R Davidson jr, Amazon

    Bought this camera for my wife at a Circuit City close-out, and it worked fine out of the box. Came with a solid little case (a plus), but it had no pockets for extra batteries and memory cards. I brought it overseas and next time I went to use it for some reason the menus did not respond. After several attempts I gave up and next trip I bought another camera. Read more

    I've made 8x10 enlargements of some of the pics taken with this at family gatherings. They came out great! I'm very pleased with this and would definitely buy it again. Read more

    • I bought this camera about a year ago at Costco. Easy to use and upload pics to my computer. Picture quality is darned good!
    • Battery replacement harder to find. I got one online, cause I couldn't find in store.

    I got this camera on sale for $99 at COSTCO with a coupon back in May, 2009. I was amazed at how sharp the pictures were and how simple it is to use it! I was kind of worried because of the price of the camera but now I can rest easy because this camera is awesome! I would HIGHLY recommend it! Read more

    • - Small camera. - Big screen. - Lots of MP (my old one had 5.0MP) - Takes FANTASTIC pictures!! - Long battery life! - Takes BETTER zoom than my $250 Kodak 5.0MP camera!!
    • Only XD proprietary cards are allowed. Standard ones aren't allowed.

    About J Ledbetter's comment on 18 Mar 09 - 'For some reason that I can't figure out, when you put it in Program mode, it only allows for 5 mega pixels.' - Obviously he has set Fine Zoom ON, if you set Fine Zoom OFF 8 mega pixels is available in P mode. Read more

    • FE-370 is well-built, overall a good compact camera considering the price. The problem is noise reduction rather than noise itself. Picture is smudged in indoor shot a...
