Olympus Stylus 800

[DawnCt1]

I am probably going to get the Olympus Stylus 800. Of course they come with starter kits, etc. Right now I have a Kodak Easy Share and I don't have a lot of stuff but I don't feel I need anymore with it. I have an extra 128 mb memory card and that's it. How much "stuff" do I actually need and is it worth getting those extra "kits". Thanks,

Where are you buying it from. Only some stores have the kits. Some of the kits are worth it but some are not. If you like the stylus 800, you might llike this better...

the kits that come with this at some places are worth it.

I am looking at ABE's of Maine. The total cost with the kit is $417. I like the Stylus 800 because it is weatherproof.

the last two kits would make sense from there. Also try (I HAVE REMOVED THIS LINK IT IS A SCAM SHOP. DO NOT BUY FROM THERE!) you ahve to call for their prices but it usually means they are below MFSR price and they are not legally allowed to publish it.

Dawn, generally those "kits" contain "junk" and are overpriced as well if they contain name brand components. You're usually better off getting memory cards and such separately.

Amazon.com has the camera for $330 with no tax and no shipping charges.
