Judging by your photos, I'm guessing you haven't had a chance to read the manual yet?

Olympus cameras usually have good lens, which is the most important part of a camera IMHO. Unfortunately, your photo don't show this (sorry). The good part is your car looks great! :D in spite of it all!!

You don't mention what model you got, but perhaps you are in a low low resolution mode and need to switch to a high res mode.... all that is to be found in the bible-type sized manual... just get out your magnifing glass and your imagination and ... well you get the idea.

Car looks great, and you'll figure out the camera; it always takes a few shots to get the hang of a new one! I saw your post in the protege forum and the car looks great! I still read a lot over on the protege forum (used to have an MP3 and a MP5). Anyway, one day I'll have to get around to posting pics of my 8 on here.

I think Mrtux hit it on the head ... use the tripod for night shots. Or get the girlfriend to bendover and use her as a mount (must get mind out of gutter).

Day pic looks great ... but should have got the "crappy" cars out of the background.
