Editors' Comments

The weatherproof Olympus Stylus 400 offers point & shoot simplicity in a rugged and stylish body. Like the 3-megapixel Stylus 300, the 400 offers practically no manual controls, so advanced photographers may want to look elsewhere. For casual snapshooters who need nothing more than a durable and dependable camera, however, the Stylus 400 should fit... read more

Batteries are a joke! (Jack - 11/21/06)

4.2 out of 5

Very nice point-and-shoot compact camera (DC Resource - 7/15/03)

The Olympus Stylus 400 is a competent point & shoot. The all-weather body is a nice addition, the camera takes relatively good pictures, and it comes with a remote control. The absence of manual controls, the lack of an autofocus illuminator, and image noise are all cited as drawbacks. read original review

5 out of 5

Built like a tank ... takes great pictures (Steve's Digicams - 7/15/03)

An overwhelmingly positive review of the Olympus Stylus 400: It takes excellent images, its weatherproof body lets you keep shooting even after the rain starts, and its compact size makes it easy to bring anywhere. Mild image noise is present in low-light conditions. read original review

4.8 out of 5

One of the better compact digicams out there. (Imaging Resource - 7/15/03)

Delivering better color than the Stylus 300, the Olympus Stylus 400 receives a very good review from this expert. Long battery life, good performance, and a weatherproof body make it one of the better compacts available (4/25/03) read original review
