Description

This PDF manual is not only applicable for Olympus FE-20 digital camera but you can also use it for other models such as FE-360, X875, C-570, X-15 anc C-25 as well.

Although FE-20 is the lowest model in current Olympus FE-series line-up, it does have a lot to offer. In such a thin (0.75 inch) camera packs a 8.0 MB sensor. I like the way Olympus write the user manual. It is written in an easy-to-read way with a lot of pictures to aid the reader to understand. Actual pictures under different settings are displayed side-by-side for user to see clearly the differences. Much better than many manuals from other digital camera manufacturers.
