As per the recommendation from Amazon below
Buy this item with Olympus 202027 2GB M Type Xd Card (Retail Package) by Olympus today!
I bought this camera with the 2GB memory card. Since the Xd card is retail package, it need additional shipping fee. Adding it up, the memory card cost me more than 29USD.
While browsing again after few days because my camera had arrived while the memory card is still pending, I found out that there is a newer model of this memory card 202127 which cost less than what I bought previously.
This newer model has stock in amazon, which mean if i buy it together with my camera, i may already get my stuff with a newer model + slightly cheaper price.
I will be off from USA in few days, just hope I can get the memory card in time.
Next time I won't look for Amazon recommendation anymore.Olympus 2 GB xD Picture Card Type M 202170

Amazon had a great deal on this camera (Olympus Stylus 770SW 7.1MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Silver)) just before our family went on a beach vacation. This seemed like a good purchase for our family because our children like to take pictures and this camera is not only waterproof, but shockproof as well.
Who knew how much the kids would enjoy having their pictures taken underwater? My wife even thought that feature was great. I was happy to carry the camera around in the pocket of my swim trunks without worrying that anything would happen to it. A fellow guest even asked what kind of camera we had that we were able to bring it in the water. I explained it was an Olympus and that Amazon had them on sale. I later heard the woman talking to her husband about the waterproof Olympus she saw.
At 7.1 megapixels, the photo quality is good enough that blow-ups and crops are possible. Underwater shots are very clear even at 6 feet of distance. A 1 gigabyte xD card will store almost 600 photos, which is a good amount. All in all, I could not be happier with this purchase. I look forward to many other vacations with this camera.

Nice size camera! Since I don't like to read manuals and I'm not technically savvy, what I liked most about the camera is that it's very user friendly. Easy to figure out without any reading. Video works great...went whitewater rafting and took some cool pictures. Purchased a mini tripod and the timer is simple to set and takes great pictures. So far the hardest thing is downloading the pictures to the cd that it came with. But I just need to spend time using all the features to the program. I would recommend if you're doing a lot of video recording or recording for long periods of time, to buy an extra battery.

I suppose I could easily do a video review and really show off the camera - but I'm in writing mode at the moment. At any rate, we bought the camera to take underwater photos on a snorkeling vacation - where it performed perfectly - but I love it for food blogging. The macro feature takes perfect food porn pictures effortlessly, and if you get a bit of bechamel on your lens, it washes or wipes right off. I'm neither a trained or talented photographer, but I've been very happy with this product, which we've had for a year.

I bought this camera in anticipation of a long planned trip to Hawaii. On my fourth snorkeling trip,(no more than 15 feet deep) the camera quit. Went back to the boat to change the battery and water poured from the inside. Sent Olympus an e-mail seeking help and got no response from them until five weeks later giving me their standard warranty BS.
