Excellent mid priced camera [Posted on 2002-04-13]
I bought this camera as my first digital camera, and I love it. easy to download pictures to PC via usb. Excellent features and settings. Does use batteries up, but get some Lithium rechargeables. Excellent picture quality, works well as point & shoot if you don't want to learn all about the other settings. I mostly store & view images on CD/PC but print quality of pictures is high for smaller sizes ie: 4"x6", if you want to print lots of larger pictures, you may consider a higher pixel camera. Overall great camera.
The Olympus C-2040Z - a second review [Posted on 2002-04-29]
I wish to add further comments to my first review of this camera. Now that I have had a chance to use it, I know that I made the right decision when I bought the Olympus C-2040Z. I could not be more satisfied. It takes some of the sharpest pictures these old eyes have ever seen, especially nature shots. I have pictures taken by this camera and printed on my Epson C-80 printer that are National Geographic quality. And I am talking about 8X10 prints in full living color. This camera has more than met my expectations. I cannot recommend it strongly enough. The excellent review by Consumers Reports should help further convince anyone who might be trying to decide which camera is the one for him or her.
It can be as simple or complicated as you want [Posted on 2002-05-28]
The Olympus C-2040 has been nothing short of perfect for my first digital camera. It can be wonderfully simple for the point and shoot photographers, and it can also be set up for more complicated shots (adjusting shutter speeds, ISO, and many other things that can go over a tourist photographer's head) If you want to jump into the digital camera market, and don't want to feel the need to replace a "beginner's digital camera" in a year or so this is absolutely the one. Just make sure you buy a larger memory card to go with the camera. You'll soon find that since you don't have to worry about running out of film you can take several shots of the same scene to hopefully get that perfect memory.
great camera [Posted on 2003-05-14]
I have had this camera for around two years now. I am in the military and travel alot. I have used the heck out of this thing. It has never failed me. It provides wonderful pictures. I just bought the remote and am looking forward to trying it out. The one down side is: nothing. I did buy a usb smartmedia reader for PC. It sped up the download from the camera like crazy. That is a must. The supplied software is not the best though. It does often lock up my system. And I have a very up to date system.
This camera is a very very good one. It is very durable as well. I have flown all over the place toting this thing along my side and have bumped it here and there and never had even a little problem with it.
I love this camera! [Posted on 2003-10-03]
I own this camera and have used it for almost 3 years now. It has been through Christmas, Easter, Birthdays, Anniversaries, trips to Yellowstone and Disney World. I always get the best pictures. The pictures my husband and I took at Yellowstone were phenomenal. They rivaled many of the post cards we saw for sale, especially of the Lower falls. This is a very easy point and shoot type camera. I only wish the optical zoom was greater than 3X.
