Sony W170 or Olympus 1010 for $300?

Question

hi, i am looking for a camera so i can take graduation pics and use it for editing photos on photoshop. I have narrowed it down to two cameras. The first is the Sony W170 and the other is the Olympus 1010. From what i have read both are really good cameras. The Olympus seems to be getting slightly better reviews and has 7x's zoom verses 5x's zoom. But at the Store the Lady told me the sony will have better picture quality. Which one should i get. I need to get it tommorow. thanks

Answer 1

Yeah.  I'd go with Sony.  Olympus is a good brand too, they just don't last as long as a Sony does.  Plus you'll get better picture quality from the Sony.   Hope it helped!!   :)

I think you should get the Sony one because they usually last longer, at least with me.
