General Comments
I find that my Olympus C-220 Zoom digital camera works perfectly, the image quality set on high will end up giving you a picture 22 x 16 inches if wanted! Flash pictures can be a little less vibrant and if I get a weak picture it probably means I was too far away when trying to use the flash. It only takes a few minutes to correct if you know what you're doing with Photoshop or similar but poor pictures have been few.
Batteries, well, if you use alkaline's you're asking for trouble. The company don't recomend them either.
They recommend rechargeables with a 1700ma rating, although the Uniross NiMh rechargeables that I use are 1300Ma and they do the job well. Only yesterday I took 44 pictures at High Res and using the Zoom to boot! A good camera and well priced - who needs to pay more than this for good pictures?
