Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Olympus Stylus Zoom 140 DLX 35mm Camera
Customer Review: Great photos, tiny camera.
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased a 140DLX, and I just got my first set of pictures back. I have NO formal photographic training, but I was simply blown away by the quality of the photos I got back. To me, they looked similar to photos I've seen from really expensive, complicated cameras with all those removable lenses.I wanted to buy an APS camera, because of the simplicity of loading film. If this is a concern of yours, buy this camera. It's ridiculously easy. APS film shots tend to look grainy, because the negative is smaller than 35mm, so there's another plus.
To me, the coolest feature was spot metering. You can get some really incredible color and life in your photos, and you can also simulate "focusing" on one object, while having other objects in the scene out of focus.
I suggest reading the entire manual, then blow a test roll (find a willing sibling, like I did) on the camera with different camera settings and lighting conditions so you can see what it will do when you really need it. And make SURE to try spot metering on things in the foreground and background so you get the concept. You'll be really impressed with this camera!

Description of Olympus Stylus Zoom 140 DLX 35mm Camera
Fully automatic operation focus, exposure, loading and rewinding. Al weather construciton provides worry free protection against the elements. Spot mode for pinpoint accuracy, macro closeups from as near as 24", self timer w/12 sec. delay, 38-140mm zoom lens, variable power flash w/red eye reduction, auto color balancing, night scene flash mode, fill flash modeThe Stylus Zoom 140 offers great styling, multi-option flash, and splashproof construction--but its most impressive feature is its ultra-powerful 38 to 140mm zoom, one of the longest we've seen on a point-and-shoot camera. The smooth, stepless zoom let us take great close-ups of faraway subjects. We've finally found a point-and-shoot that can compete with professional SLRs when it comes to telephoto capabilities.
The Olympus Stylus Zoom 140 gave us fully automatic operation--when we opened the sliding lens cover, the zoom extended and the flash popped up automatically. The powerful 38 to 140mm zoom lens extended and retracted smoothly, giving us great close-up shots. We liked the multiple flash modes, which let us choose red-eye reduction, night-scene flash, and more. We also found the spot metering feature, for hard-to-gauge lighting situations, to be useful. Our only difficulty with this camera was in opening the battery compartment.
The Olympus Stylus Zoom 140 offers a handy panorama switch that lets you take panoramic photos on a roll of regular film. (You can take an entire panorama roll as well.) If you do take panoramic shots on a regular roll, you'll have to get them specially reprinted in the panorama format.
The Olympus Stylus Zoom 140's sturdy construction and sleek form make it easy to carry and hold. The camera is weatherproof, meaning you can use it in rain, in snow, and by water, but you can't submerge it.
Pros:
- Sleek, stylish form
- Extremely powerful 38 to 140mm zoom
- Wide range of flash options
- Panorama switch
Cons:
- Battery compartment is hard to open
