Olympus C 770 UZ
When i bought this i never knew that it is going to last just one year. It looked as though the camera was designed to last just one year, as the problems crept one month after the warranty period. The two problems were:
So not even a "Made in Japan" tag and a reputed company like Olympus can maintain quality. So any dump camera would do.
Now i have another problem with this model the charger does not seem to work. I need to see where i can buy it in Bangalore. I saw the price of a new one at Rs12k+.
- I cannot switch off the camera!! It is always in playback mode on switching off. I need to take out the battery to prevent draining off
- Zoom does not work. We hear the motor moving but no change in Zoom.
So not even a "Made in Japan" tag and a reputed company like Olympus can maintain quality. So any dump camera would do.
