General Comments
Olympus C-50 Zoom - My first digital, but didn't last more than a year.
Took reasonably good shots, although shutter delay very frustrating. Let me down on a holiday in Cuba - electronic fault prevented display from working. By the time I'd got home & contacted Olympus, the guarantee was up and they wanted to charge me £129 to fix (for a software fault!!!).
Suffice to say Olympus will never have my custom again.
