Good Points

Easy to use. Few buttons = little confusion. Clear LCD screen. Excellent quality photos, indoors and outdoors.


Bad Points

Flash drowns out features in very poor light & doesn't reach very far. Screen keeps failing. Battery life with rechargeable batteries poor (I use normal ones now, they last much longer).


General Comments

The Olympus C-150 camera is brilliant if you don't like faffing about with buttons here there and everywhere. With the screen open or closed the buttons have different functions. I got the hang of this camera within hours, and I've got some brilliant photos off of it!!
On the other hand, it does lose power quite quickly, and the flash does wash out pictures in very low light. In moderate light it's best not to use the flash, you can just enhance the picture with a program on your computer afterwards if you have the facilities.
I have also had problems with the screen on this camera. I had to get it replaced after the screen stopped working altogether. The new one was fine for a few months, but now it has started to not show the picture you have just taken straight afterwards, which I can put up with, as it still works when you're taking the picture, and when you look at all the pictures together.
Altogether it's a great little camera, and has as much on it as I need. Besides, I don't tend to need to take many photos in the dark anyway!
