Great photos, light weight 
2002-07-22
I bought this camera because of the light weight, the date/time stamp and the zoom capability, and I am very please with the purchase. We have two young kids and use the 115QD to take a lot of photos. The photo quality is very good (may be close to the Canon AE1 SLR that I used to use) under a lot of different lighting enviornments. So far we have no complaint about it, it is reliable and take great pictures.
Not Recommended

I loved the features on this camera when I first purchased it. However, on only the 2nd or 3rd roll of film, I noticed the pictures (particulary the zoom pictures) were fuzzy. Olympus diagnosed the problem as the lens being off center. Now only 2 years later, the lens cover has broken off and the motor is not working properly. I am now looking for a new camera, but definately not an Olympus.

I had this camera less than two years when the slide cover switch broke. I took it to a camera repair shop and they said THEY SEE IT ALL THE TIME and it would cost [$] to repair. Not wanting to take their word for it, I shipped my camera to Olympus and they came back with a [$] repair estimate. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR. DON'T BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK. IT LOOKS PRETTY IN THE STORE, BUT OBVIOUSLY NOT MADE WELL!!!

Wow! What a camera! Resolution? Phenomenal! Picture perfect, as a matter of fact. I have yet to experience any electromechanical problems with this camera. The camera is exceptionally well crafted and finely appointed. The camera sits well in the hands and is easy to maneuver during photo opportunities. Exceptional picture quality! Are you looking for a camera that makes you, the photographer, look like a professional? Then you've found what you are looking for!
somewhat disappointed 
2001-10-03
I, too, have had problems with my Olympus camera and hoped it was not standard for the brand. I have always owned Canon SureShots, but wanted to try something different when the last SureShot wore out. But like the customer from Cincinnati, the viewfinder is off center, the focus is, of course, affected by this problem, the flash does not function properly and washes out the subjects. I was told when I sent the camera and some sample prints in to Olympus for repair that my prints were shaky, and they sent it back. I wanted to like the camera; it has superb features. It is extremely light and it's easy to use. But up to this point, I have not been convinced to fall in love with it.
great 35mm camera 2008-04-29
really great camera, takes really nice photos. If you need a great 35mm camera at a low cost this would be it.
Amazing Quality Photos ! 2008-01-28
I have had this camera for over 6 years and have gotton some brilliant shots from it. The clarity and richness of color is really amazing- it rivals digital cameras. The camera is pretty lightweight and easy to carry around. The only downside of course being a 35 mm- you have to scan the photos to a disc before you can upload them onto the computer. Some pictures have a bit of noise/grain in them, but not much. They can be reduced with software.
An Excellent Camera with a Great Telephoto Lens 2003-08-02
The camera is compact, solid but light, and very easy to use. The images are very good to excellent. All the features seems to work just fine. The telephoto lens really brings images in. Its relative resistance to water-spray helps with boating photography. So far it has worked without a hitch. Though I own a digital camera, I believe that a film camera like this is still preferable for travel or for taking many pictures in a short time. All you have to do is plop a new film in and keep going, and then drop it off for development and you will end up with photos that will not fade out in a few years. I highly recommend this Olympus for an uncomplicated way of handling photography in an economical fashion and ending up with excellent results.
Very nice camera, BUT.... 2003-02-17
We have bought six Olympus's for our large family of grown children. They are easy to use, relatively inexpensive, and compact. But, they have a major flaw. On three of the six cameras we have bought, the lins cover has broken and this prevents the camera from operating. The authorized service places in Houston Texas say they can not get the parts to repair this product deficiency.
