Olympus Camedia C-1 ... response to the growing popularity of digital photography. This camera is designed to offer superb image quality, yet be so easy to operate that even first-time users can enjoy carefree digital shooting. Its user-friendly simplicity and portability make it a camera that people can take anywhere, and use anytime. The CAMEDIA C-1 automatically switches on when the lens barrier is opened. It boasts full-auto operation that allows users to obtain high-quality images simply by aiming the camera and pressing the shutter button, and the number of control buttons has been kept to a minimum to simplify operation as much as possible. The camera's body is slim, light and compact, and features a sliding, egg-shaped lens barrier that accents the cameras stylish design. The flat, protuberance-free body and sliding lens barrier also make it easy for users to carry the camera in their pocket or handbag, and take beautiful pictures at a moment's notice.

Two aspherical glass lens elements are incorporated into the bright, F2.8 lens. As a result, the lens is extremely compact, yet it offers high resolving power that maximizes the performance potential of the camera's 1.31-megapixel CCD. In addition, users can obtain superior image quality even when shooting smaller-sized images for on-screen/Web display or transmission as e-mail attachments, because advanced TruePic technology ensures that the full range of pixel data is incorporated into all images, regardless of size. The CAMEDIA C-1 is equipped with a built-in LCD color monitor that can be used to view the subject when shooting, and to display images after they have been taken. It also comes with everything users need to begin using the camera right away!

Olympus Camedia C-1: Great easy to use camera (151 words)

Excellent digital camera for beginner and expert alike. Battery lasts ages, its easy to use and I am fairly camera illiterate but I found it to give great quality at a sensible price. I have seen much more expensive cameras not take pictures as good as my faithful Olympus c-1. I have had it for four years and it has never missed a beat. Literally taken thousands of photos for work on roofs, in bad weather inside construction sites as well as family holidays and gatherings. Downloading couldnt be easier it takes seconds to put the pictures onto my hard drive and then print them out if I need to.

I bought this camera knowing nothing in the world about digital cameras. The instructions were clear and within 20 minutes I was up and running Point, click and hey presto you have your picture you can view this picture in the lcd monitor. It comes complete with connector for your computer that was very easy also and it has its own software I wanted a digital camera so that I could send pictures via e-mail and this little camera is so easy to use. Take your picture; just point and click then view your picture on the monitor. Install the software on to your computer and plug the usb cable from your computer into the camera, ...  Read the complete review
