Yesterday I got an email from Oly Canada offering refurbished sp-100ee at the equivalent of US190$. So I came here hoping to read about its user's experience but the discussions about it are almost none. Why? Is it such a bad camera?

Thanks for your time.

I presume few actually own it.

I have played about with it in a shop. I liked it but don't need another camera.

It is not unusual for models of any manufacturer or range not getting a mention here. Over the years I also got the impression that the majority of camera buyers never look at DPReview.

As to the SP-100EE - I just typed it into the search box on YouTube. There are a number of reviews, like this one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXsD_D2D1_s

I do like the red dot sight on the SP-100EE. But I actually only need it about five times a year. For most of the stuff that I do, a travel zoom is more useful for me (SH-1).

This said, here we don't get any complaints about the SP-100EE either. Compare this to the constant bleating about the XZ-1, XZ-2 and Stylus 1. I would say that at US$ 190.- you can't go wrong with the SP-100EE.
