Olympus Stylus 790SW Digital Camera Logo
Posted on Jun 01, 2008

790SW Problems You mentioned you are on your third one. So do you just keep sending them back to Olympus with the receipt and they keep sending you new ones? Is the battery charger supposed to blink when it is charging? I was snorkeling with mine when it seized up and wouldn't work anymore. I was turning it on and off so that I could save battery power. I guess something got stuck in there. Then it would let me view pix, but not take pix. Then it said the battery cover was open, when it wasn't. Then it went completely dead and hasn't turned on since then.

How do I tell if my Olympus 790SW is damaged or if the battery needs replaced?

Unfortuneately when water enters the camera this is usually a one way ticket, I recommend you remove the memory card to save your pictures, the liquid has already started eating into the ic pins eventually sending the camera into cascade failure that can take days, weeks, and months before the full extent is known. I recommend you consider replacing the camera.

I'd like to set my Stylus 790SW back to default settings in hopes that my video feature will work. Right now the video doesn't record. It's just a picture. I've been messing with this camera for 4 hours...

Roll the dial to picture mode, press the menu button and you will see "reset" on the left. Select "Reset" and say "Yes" - this will reset your camera to default settings.
Here's a link to the manual if you need more help: (see page 23) http://www.olympusamerica.com/files/Stylus_790_SW_Instruction_Manual_EN.pdf
Hope this helps! Please rate my solution!

Battery was put in backward in camera cant get it out

You should probaly listen to the manual and take it to a dealer or phone Olympus about sending it in because it is probaly possible to disasemble the camera to get it out your self but doing so would void your warranty.

I hope you get your problem fixed!!

Wont turn on

Remove battery from charger. Unplug charger for a minute, then plug back into outlet. Reinsert battery and see if red LED comes on and STAYS on solid. If so, charge for about 5 hours.
