Olympus Camedia C-2040 Zoom ... silver / The CAMEDIA C-2040 Zoom is a perfect example of how some things get better with age. Offering all the functions of its elder C-2020 Zoom digital camera, the Olympus C-2040 additionally provides the world's first Super Bright 1.8-2.6 3x Optical zoom lens which extends the flash working range for shooting at greater distances and in lower-light conditions. For greater flexibility, the CAMEDIA C-2040 Zoom features up to a 2.5x digital zoom and up to a 5x digital zoom in VGA mode.

As for power, the C-2040 Zoom can be used with CR-3V (LB-01) batteries as well as AA Ni-MH, alkaline, lithium or NiCd to provide a longer life battery capability.

Premium Review Olympus Camedia C-2040 Zoom: Pro Pix at a reasonable price (198 words)
