Hi, I recently bought this camera, did I make the right choice ?

Question

http://www.jjmehta.com/products/olympus_mju840.html

After like 70 photos it constantly alerts low battery but it can take about 200 shots but yet the alert sign is annoying.

I bought the blue color.

Answer 1

8MP is pretty standard for a digital camera, however 10+ would be great.

Olympus is a trusted, solid brand, especially with cameras.

It looks like it will do a really good job and suit your needs, unless you are a professional photographer, its good for the average person.

Being that its Olmpus' most recent camera is great, as its up to date with technology of the time.

But if your really concerned, look up cnet.com.au and see their reviews on cameras.

Answer 2

I say Olympus is a trusted brand

The battery situation could just mean that there's regular alkaline batteries in it, replace them with either lithium batteries or rechargeables.

Answer 3

The Blue ones have that problem for some reason but the silver ones don't alert till you've shot 175 pics.
