Thanx for sharing. Mine is past warranty period. I was too busy with work to look into it when I first bought it. Nowadays with the clubsnap forum like this one I don't think I will easily make the same mistake again. At least now we as buyers can be better informed than the sellers for them to...

No, when it refuses to focus, it will not under any lighting conditions. It is also not that type of blurriness we sometimes see for soft portraits, this blur in totally blur and nothing can be figured out from the shots taken. :bigeyes:

That said, I think Olympus HQ, and I don't mean Oly Sg, should recall all their sub-performing SP350s in good faith and replace them with an equivalent spec camera without any questions asked. Only then will consumers ever again dare have their complete faith in the brand.

Thanx cater. I will try it. As for making Oly solve my problem, the guys at the retail shops I frequent told me that it is NORMAL as they have other customers having the same problem with the SP350. I have gone to High Street to "REASON WITH THEM" loudly, but THAT IS THE BEST THAT THEY CAN DO...

Oh no, I would need the Olympus Masters software which I have long uninstalled from my comp. I have even converted all the Oly raw files to JPG and DNG. Anyway my SP350 was updated after the date shown on the firmware update. Thanx again.

Thanx splim for your help. I will try updating the firmware right away!

No use. It seems that mine is not the only one that sucks! I have to thank splim for the link... I am feeling better already. As for my E500, I have long traded it in to a shop for $400. It seems he was doing me a favor as he was going to give it as a gift to a missionary. As for my SP350, its...

Thanx splim for the link. Nice to know I am not alone. I only got to know about clubsnap and dpreview etc sometime after I bought the SP350...sigh

That idi... camera is right now lying in the drawer under this computer screen. I just threw away 4 of the 2700mAh rechargeable batteries because they only lasted 10 shots per charge. In the camera right now are 2 new Ni-MH 1700mAh original Oly batteries that takes about 30-50 shots per charge...

they might tot we are idiot or blind...and could not tell the difference. Funny that was how I felt at that High Street Building that day. My SP350 could not focus at all. So they claim they updated the firmware. But after some time it could not focus again. I suspected it had to do with the...

The best thing about it was Oly China agent gave a WRITTEN 6 months gaurantee for same fault remedy. That is : if the same fault should happen within a 6 month period they gaurantee to repair it again for free.:thumbsup:

I forgot something else. The display of my SP350 kong off on me some time last year. I sent it for repair here in Sg, the guys at Oly Sg told me it would cost $180 to be repaired. Then I brought it to China. Oly China repaired it for RMB300 which is less than S$60 :thumbsup:

I had been a faithful Oly user since the days of OM1, thats probably some twenty years. Then I bought the E500. It was good. But I had trouble getting myself enrolled in their free lesson that came with the camera, despite my calling them a few times. Of course I gave up in the end. Then I...

Here's a standing ovation for your link, Patchow. Clap! Clap! Clap! It's been one of the most exhilarating moments I have had here at clubsnap... looking at your 40D. Clap! Clap! Clap!

Thanx for the info. Nearly bought a grey for $1600 yesterday.
