or if it transfers and can be read by others, but it seems to me to
be an invasion of privacy. Most reviews state that having the GPS
on will really drain the battery. The good thing about the 820....is
that it comes without a GPS....so at least you are not paying for a
feature you will disable

I feel the same way about the GPS I haven't really figured out the logic behind this feature,honestly feel it's a gimmick.

The pics are cleaner than my previous Oylmpus model I haven't tried the custom setting on it.
I bought the F-con and the T-con "add on lens",they make a huge difference for there functions. the F-con is a fish eye type lens that's used for a wide angle and single panoramic shots, a nice touch but this won't be used much.The T-con changes everything in regards to point and shoot style cameras.it brings it to a 35MM style you can zoom in on far away shots but stay in focus for a cleaner in depth shot,this lens pretty much stays on all the time.this makes it a bit bulky but well worth it.
Also the lens's are water/dust tight to 40'.
