Olympus C-50 Digital CameraStereo Advantage Review Pending The Olympus C-50 Digital Camera has received several excellent reviews:The
bottom line - the C-50 Zoom is an excellent camera that produces images equal to
its much larger 5-megapixel peers. Olympus has never had a problem getting the
exposure and white balance right, the C-50 does it consistently. About the only
thing this camera lacks is a focus-assist lamp (we have to give them something
to improve on the next model.) It's a truly palm-sized camera that is both
stylish and durable thanks to the brushed silver, all-metal body. You can slip
it into your pants pocket, purse or carry it in your hand, the only reason for
-not- having it with you would be if you simply forgot it. I'm not crazy about
tiny cameras with tiny and impossible to operate controls - the C-50 is NOT one
of these. It's small but easy to use, even with large hands, the controls are
well placed and plainly labeled. This is a camera that anybody can use in AUTO
mode and at the turn of a dial you can select one of the Scene modes to do more
creative pictures. And when you're ready for total control you can select from
Shutter or Aperture Priority or full Manual exposure mode. With the holidays
right around the corner the C-50 Zoom will make a great gift for that special
someone on your list. If you crave large prints but don't want to spend a bundle, check out Olympus's 5-megapixel C-50 Zoom. It's a compact, lightweight camera that's beginner-friendly on automatic but also has manual features that should appeal to photo enthusiasts. You'll find few cameras that pack the same pixel punch for the combination of size and price. That said, this 3X-zoom model does have a few drawbacks. A 5-megapixel CCD is a bit noisy for point-and-shoot operation--users have to micromanage light-sensitivity (ISO) settings to minimize noise. Furthermore, the C-50 is not suited for use with a tripod. Cnet.com See full Olympus C-50 Digital Camera reviews at steves-digicams.com and Cnet.com
