I had a hard time justifying buying this camera because I already own a couple of very nice cameras. However, I often find myself wishing I had a camera that was compact enough to carry with me where a full blown camera and bag was just not practical or outright difficult. When the impulse side of me won out, I went to the store and started comparing small compact cameras. I wanted as much zoom and quality in as small of a package as I could get. The sales person and I ended up on the floor with several cameras out of the boxes comparing the different features. The Olympus Stylus 840 won out for several reasons but the surprise was when I got it home and got to play with it for a few days. Photography was my father's hobby and he spent many years trying to teach me the ins and outs of f-stops, shutter speeds, etc. I understand the concepts but was never any good in practice. When it came to shooting a real event (not just playing with the camera), I always went back to the automatic

I should put in the disclaimer that I am a big fan of Olympus products and hold a fairly heavy bias towards them before I write this review. My experiences with Olympus cameras has always been very good except for one FE170 that I gave away (it was a piece of garbage).
I just purchased this little Olympus after much research because I needed a compact "snapper" that I could easily take to parties/ social events etc. where a larger camera (I have an Olympus SP550UZ that I love) would be too cumbersome. Having said that, I still need it to take very nice photographs as I am not willing to sacrifice image quality for compactness. I already owned a Panasonic Lumix TZ3 that was supposed to serve this purpose but to be completely honest I wasn't entirely happy with that camera. It is a little larger and heavier than what I needed and photos weren't up to scratch a lot of the time. They always seem a bit washed out/ pale and colors seemed sub-optimal/ inaccurate.
I was tossing up between this

I purchased the Olympus Stylus 840 for my wife's birthday in anticipation of an upcoming vacation. It is a replacement of a Cannon Powershot that was purchased in 2002. While still functional and taking better than adequate pictures, the Powershot was getting long in the tooth.
Before purchasing it, I consulted with the husband of one of my colleagues who happens to be a professional photographer. When I detailed what I wanted: small form factor, high quality lens, optical zoom, and quick image capture and recovery, he immediately pointed me toward Olympus.
Since giving the camera to my wife, the camera has made a trip out to Seattle. It's size proves to be one of it's greatest strengths as it easily fits into one's pants pockets or into my wife's handbag. This was something that neither of us liked to do with our old camera. Because of this, I think we are far more likely to take the camera with us and will be far more likely to take pictures (as evidenced by the 70 some shots
