Olympus - FE-170 —

I have owned two Olympus digital cameras over the years. The FE-170 is small and inexpensive. It is easy to use and delivers very good pictures. It is a rugged camera and survived a car wreck with me. It takes great close-up pictures, and the digital zoom is excellent.

Olympus - FE-170 is recommended by hotrod77
