Not happy!
This is the second MJU 720SW I have had; the first failed in water and was replaced by Olympus (their customer service is very good indeed). This unit also failed in water and ruined my memory card taking over 200 holiday pics with it!!

It has been a good buy overall but there are certainly a few things which I would have liked to be aware of before I bought:
Cons: As with most new digitals the included memory is just a token - you will need to get a bigger memory chip at cost.
If you are planning to get ... ...mean get some kind of case - the LCD screen can scratch and there is no way to fix it without sending back to manufacturer to replace it (as far as I could find).
The picture quality is great but I found that if you didn't hold steady through the shot alot of images came out blurred when using the flash.
It lives up to it's indestructable reputation - I have dropped it, squashed it, submerged it, and feel (almost) comfortable throwing it to other ...
