Olympus Camedia C-2500L ... metallic silver / Before the C-2500L, no standalone digital camera in the world produced results that could truly be considered on a par with those produced by a film camera. But now - for the first time - the compact Olympus C-2500L produces photographic results suitable for prints 8 x 10 inches and larger with true colors, true contrast and true gradations. At a price that's almost too good to be true. This ability is the result of exclusive TruePic technology that adds an entirely new dimension to the process of translating pixels to images. Along with other advances that include a superior CCD, an improved image aspect ratio and a fast f.2.8 - f 3.9, all-glass, aspherical 3x zoom lens that delivers crystal-clear images. All of which is exactly what you'd expect from Olympus - world leader in film and filmless photography.

The C-2500L's advanced imaging capabilities are housed in the industry's smallest and lightest all-in-one SLR filmless camera - along with a host of advanced features that provide a true photographic experience. In addition to the industry's most accurate optical viewfinder and spot-metering system, it also offers full manual controls for focus, shutter speed, aperture and white balance with selectable ISO. It also has an intelligent, multi-mode flash system and a hot shoe for the optional Olympus FL-40 or other flash units. Creative shooting options include manual and automatic exposure control, manual or automatic white balance and burst shooting mode with 16 MB of RAM buffer for rapid shooting. The threaded lens mount allows you to use accessory lenses and filters. An infrared remote control and for the first time in a filmless camera - dual card slots - accept both SmartMedia and CompactFlash media. With one of the industry's most accurate viewfinders, what you see is truly what you get with the C-2500L for the full range of its entire 36 - 110 mm equivalent zoom lens - and beyond. Whether it's a super macro shot from as close as .8 inches or a 160 mm equivalent telephoto image captured using the optional telephoto lens extender, the view is always fantastic.

The camera itself is feature packed, with ports for both smart media and compact flash cards, enabling versatality for the user. It has many shooting modes, including macro mode, each of them all very useful. The camera comes with some excellent batteries, which provide a good life. The smartmedia card can fit 10-13 imgages on it without compression, which the camera supports and an 8mb card is supplied as standard. Al...more

I recently bought this camera, as I had read many reviews praisng it and I decided to see for myself how good it was. I wasn't dissappointed! The c2500l has a great zoom lens on it, and included in the box are many extras not included in many other cameras. Included I recieved a charger, rechargable batteries,AC adaptor, a smartmedia card (8mb), a remote control (very useful!) a carry case, along with many other great items. I particulary liked the remote control on this product, which leaves you free to take pictures of yourself. The camera supports the ability to construct mini slide shows, and picture shows.

I have had my Olympus C-2500L for nearly two months now, and have been very pleased with its performance. The picture quality is superb, even on standard mode (1280x1024) which I mainly use because it is good quality and allows 17 pictures per 8Meg card. I have found the metering to be much better than on other cameras I have used. The only quibble I have with this model is that although when in manual mode you are able to adjust the shutter speed as with a normal SLR, the apperture simply has two settings, minimum and maximum. However, this is a small complaint about an otherwise great camera, which has all the features of a normal SLR, with the added ...
