Product ReviewsOlympus Stylus Epic Zoom 80 35mm Point & Shoot Film Camera

A super item from a super seller.

My old similar camera finally gave up the ghost and would no longer work because the sliding from was cracked somehow. This one is so similar I didn't have to learn how to use it. It is an excellent camera for someone who doesn't want to have to stop a focus to get a good shot. I am not a professional photographer and have no desire to learn to be one so this one fits me perfectly. It fits in the bottom of my small purse quite well and is with me whenever I wish to use it. Great!!Read full review...

Digital is nice but my heart belongs to my Olympus 80 SLR

Digital cameras are fine and do have a purpose in life but my heart belongs to 35mm. I photograph horses primarily and my digital camera is not fast enough to catch a moving horse. I had one of these when they first came and loved it, it has since gone to camera heaven. This is the third Olympus Stylus Epic Zoom 80 that I have purchased via eBay recently. My goal is to make sure that I have one as long as I can still buy 35 mm film and have it developed. Long the the 35mm SLR! :)Read full review...

Just what I needed

Arrived one day earlier than expected, the scuffs weren't too bad, the front body was in shiny gorgeous condition. The scuffs added character, really. Battery is at full, and the camera works and sounds as it should--putting in fresh film is so easy it's a dream. Thank you!Read full review...

People Are Giving 'Em Away, So Get One

I bought one of these because I have a non-zooming Infinity Stylus that I like, and because of some good writeups by the likes of Matt Denton, etc. about the little Olympuses. Also bought it because, hey, people are giving these away. Be aware: in the battery compartment, there's just a tiny stiff wire that makes the positive connection to the battery, and when my camera came in, the wire wasn't in the right position. Had to jigger with it before the camera sprang to life. Then all was well. It's a 3v battery.Read full review...

almost exactly as presented

everything is almost exactly as presented, though it is more visibly used than the pictures implied (front of the camera is pretty visibly scratched up). it works perfectly and the included battery is very convenient.Read full review...

Olympus Stylus Epic Zoom 80 35mm Film Camera

Best bang for the buck out there today. 35mm film is dirt cheap! You can even have the kids take great shots while on vacation without the worry of damaging your expensive digital camera. They have fun picking up photo packages from the processing centers and sharing them with friends. Another benefit is it keep them off your photo printer while you are using it. We have a few of these and have lots of fun too! truly a great deal.Read full review...

Why this was a great deal

Before the digital age, this was a great little camera. I am a camera collector and a Pro Photographer. This was an expensive camera when it came out and a great picture taker. I love just that kind of camera. When I won it for .99 I could not believe my luck. I gave it to my daughter as a serious picture taker.I gave her some lessons and she has taken some great pictures. I have digital cameras, but I just love film cameras. It is incredible the number of excellent film cameras there at ebay for pennies. I will grab as many of them as I can. I have already bought over 20. I hope to buy many more.Read full review...
