Good Points

All in all a very good camera batteries last quite a long time but rechargables offer added perfomance and durability.


Bad Points

TFT screen doesn't match up to superb picture quality! No case inclueded but not a much of a prblem for one such as myself.


General Comments

I bought the Olympus C-150 camera from "Cameras2u" who i had never heard of before and so i was a little weary. However, they offered exceptional service and the camera was delivered just two days later and it was very well packaged. It took me approximatly one day to master the cameras functions, features and controls and inclueded with the camera I received a quick start guide which was very conveinient. Inclueded with the camera you get a 16MB XD card which holds 32 pictures on the second best quality which is still exceptional. I bought with the camera (as a bundle package) a 64MB XD card which holds approximatly 164 pictures on the second best quality setting. After reading several reviews on high battery consumpion, I purchased a rechargable battery set with a charger and as the complete order came to over £100 I recieved free delivery. After saying that the average alkaline batterys have lasted quite a long time and i also have heard that you can buy a mains adapter for the camera when uploading images to your computer. I was able to take my first picture in a matter of minutes and uploaded it to my computer even more swiftly. The software inclueded with the camera is also quite good and offers more features such as calendars for example. I do prefer my own photo uploading software however as I am more familiar with it. The picture quality you will recieve from this camera is simpley outstanding. I was origionally intending to purchase a 4 MegaPixel camera or higher but when I recieved this camera and tested it out I was amazed at the image quality when I uploaded it from the camera. It was so good in fact that the TFT viewfinder on the rear of the camera did not do the image quality justice. The TFT moniter is quite large and is very usful for browsing through the pictures and deleting bad shots although it very unlikely you will come across any.
