Does anybody have a clue as to the warranty? Not any of the current 19 reviewers have posted what happens when the camera goes "belly-up"

You need to send the camera to Japan with the provided paper in the box. It is not under warranty in the USA.

If you have not purchased this camera yet I would advise not to do this. It has been servicing for 1 week. As other customer wrote, after batteries discharged and were replaced with new ones the camera didn't switch on and doesn't react on any action. My request to the shop remained unanswered. Regards

It's definitely a great camera and I too would replace it with the same. (I'm actually on my 3rd one - the last two purchased very used)Does anyone have a suggestions for the natural progression to the line?

I have no idea. I have had nothing but problems with my camera. I hopefully can send it back, it is still under warranty.

I urge others who have purchased this camera from Amazon to ask Amazon what is being "reviewed." Do it by posting here or by calling or emailing Amazon directly. We should have an explanation. So please do it!

I don't know if it comes with a warranty or not. However, I purchased mine about one year ago and they seem to be doing fine. I will say that, if you charge them up and leave them sit in the camera case unused for a month, the charge will deminish. The instructions do say to charge them just before you plan to use them for optimal performance.

I was just buying it to replace a similar camera I had which got damaged when sand got into the lens mechanism and I didn't even check what the warranty was, sorry. I've gone back to my order to see what (if any) it was but can't find it.

I just got my camera back from the Cannon Factory and they said found that it was an internal issue, they replaced "something" and sent it back and it works just fine! Sorry this isn't a more helpful post for those of you without a warranty! I'll keep looking through my paperwork at home and see if they were more specific AT ALL in stating what the mystery "something" was that didn't work. Just wanted to update as I promised I would!

The screen should be covered by the warranty IF you purchased the camera less than 1 year ago. I shipped mine to Olympus to be repaired and am waiting for the camera to be returned. From my research, there are other Olympus cameras that have had the same problem. I suggest you also let the BBB know about this - and perhaps consumer reports. If Olympus if refusing to fix a known flaw - this is a serious issue.

You can purchase a warranty with the camera. I don't know about getting repairs done.

When you register the camera, see if there is any information that would help you in this question. I don't remember any such but that doesn't mean it's not available. Actually, I thought Amazon had a warranty program. Might want to check with them.

It's my favorite camera ever, and I also own a DSLR. That said, I discovered a small piece of dust or debris on the sensor through a photo of the sky shot at f/16, focused at infinity. Otherwise I wouldn't have discovered the dust. I sent the camera back to Ricoh repair services for warranty service about a month ago, and it's in transit back to me now. This is not a common occurrence, and I was told by a Ricoh product specialist that the dust most likely entered the camera during the manufacturing process. A clean room where the cameras are assembled probably became temporarily contaminated.

If you buy it from us the 1 year warranty will work but if you buy a brand new from other country you have to send camera to that country for service. Also it's very convenient if you change your mind or like other product to return. I will recommend checking on best buy. They are cheaper than anywhere else

Hey there, I just had this same thing happen to my camera!!! The camera was not dropped or anything and it seemed to just appear out of the blue. One minute I am taking pictures and it looked fine, then I look down and the screen internally is cracked, the outside of the LCD does not have a scatch on it. I am about to send it off to Olympus to get a warrentyl repair, but could use any other instances of this happening as evidence that this is not my fault. Please let me know what you were able to get done. Thanks, Nick
