The best features offered by the Olympus 790 camera is that it’s shock proof, waterproof and also freeze proof. These features are what you would buy this digital camera for really. The screen is a bit of a let down and also it would have been nice to have a view finder in addition to an LCD screen as the sunlight makes it hard to see the pictures you are taking sometimes if you use it a lot outdoors which we do.

The camera does take some nice pictures with its 7.1 mega pixels and its face detection technology makes sure you get the optimal focus in those areas you really need. For the outdoor users there is also plenty of scene modes to choose from to help with taking the ideal photograph. In total the 790 model has 23 scene modes which includes a beach mode, snow mode and 4 modes dedicated to underwater use.
