Editorial Review:

Looking for a fun and easy-to-use point-and-shoot camera? Automatic features. Simple thumb-pad navigation. An impressive macro mode for pictures as close as 8 inches. QuickTime mini movies. A video out port to view and share images or movies on a TV. High-end optics and a 2-megapixel CCD for clear results perfect for e-mailing or printing up to 8" x 10". All in a compact, stylish digital camera you'll love. Nothing's impossible.Point. Shoot. Repeat. The D-390 is packed with features that automatically adjust to give you the best possible shot at the push of a button, so you don 't have to take a break from the action to get great pictures of it. Even the 2.5x digital telephoto is quick and easy. The D-390 features a sleek, contoured body that's impossible to ignore, except in your pocket. Images big enough for sharp, detailed 8"x 10"prints. Small images perfect for e-mail. The D-390 gives you the flexibility to shoot exactly the image you need. Portrait mode for enhanced skin tones. Landscape mode for richer blues and greens. Four easy scene program modes make it easy and fun to take full advantage of every photo opportunity. A guy juggling at a street fair. Race cars zooming by. A freestyle skier catching big air. Sometimes nothing captures the action like video. You can even connect your D-390 to almost any TV and watch your movies on the big screen. Nearly any computer with a USB port will recognize the D-390 and connect automatically. No software. No hassle. Panorama, sequence and 2-in-1 picture modes. Multi-mode flash, auto white balance and an intuitive menu navigation system. The D-390 is packed with features that make it fun, easy and beautiful.

Olympus D-Series cameras are renowned for combining easy-to-use features with high-quality optics for great-looking results, and the Camedia D-390 lives up to that tradition. Featuring a compact body and 2-megapixel resolution, the D-390 is the most affordable digital camera from Olympus, making an ideal choice for beginners in digital photography.

The D-390 has a durable plastic body with a sliding clamshell lens barrier. Its small size is due, in part, to the use of the miniature XD memory card--the D-390 is 15% smaller than its predecessor the D-380--making it easy to slip into your pocket.

The 2-megapixel resolution will produce images up to 1600 x 1200 pixels for print enlargements up to 8 x 10 inches. The D-390 features a high-quality, all-glass Olympus lens that's specially designed for digital cameras. It also offers a 2.5x digital zoom to help you get in closer to your subjects.

The included 16 MB XD memory card will store approximately 32 images captured at 1600 x 1200 pixels in HQ mode. Images can be downloaded to either a Mac or PC via USB connectivity, which means it can be connected to any USB-based Windows Me/2000/XP and Mac OS 8.6 or later computer without installing any software.

Other features include:

  • 1.8-inch color TFT (transreflective) LCD screen for reviewing and editing images.
  • Built-in flash with auto, red-eye reduction, fill in, and slow synch modes.
  • Four scene program modes including Portrait, Landscape, Night Scene, and Self-Portrait.
  • Movie mode (with no sound) for video at 320 x 240 (up to 15 seconds) or 160 x 120 (up to 60 seconds)

The camera is powered by two AA batteries (included); rechargeable AA-size NiMH batteries are. It measures 4.2 x 2.3 x 1.6 inches and weighs 5.8 ounces. This package includes the Camedia D-390 digital camera, 16 MB XD memory card, batteries, USB and A/V cables, wrist strap, and CD-ROM with Camedia Master imaging software and USB drivers for Windows and Mac.


Customer Reviews:

  • Avg. Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0

  • Mediocre at Best
    If you are a beginner (as in a teenager who has only used a cell phone camera before) this could be for you. It is straightforward enough: slide open the cover and it turns on. Aim, zoom if needed, and shoot. But it can't be quite that simple. No, half the time it "spazzes" out mid-click, leaving you in the dark (literally: the screen goes black for around seven seconds before getting back on track). And I hope you don't want it to take one shot right after another: it takes three to five seconds to write... more info

  • Also disappointed
    I just want to jump on the band wagon and say that this camera sucks up battery power much too quickly. I have bought so many different kinds of battery chargers thinking the problem was with the batteries I was buying. After a year now, I know the short life of this camera is due to the camera itself.

  • Horrible Digital Camera
    This was a waste of money even if it was 10.00 it would be a waste! The camera drains the batteries within an hour or so! NOT WORTH IT AT ALL!

  • good while it lasted
    I was given this camera as a gift and loved it at first. Easy to use, took nice pictures. However, I agree with other reviewers--the batteries drain in days and the lag between shots was very long. Now (1 1/2 years later), even with brand new batteries, I cannot get the camera to stay on to take one picture.
