Distracted By My Shiny New Camera
My Olympus C4000 is hard to beat. Steve’s Digicams reviewed it well, and many friends with newer cameras find features or capabilities in it they miss on theirs. So, despite my schoolboy giddiness at the arrival of new gadgets, I’m waiting to be convinced that my new C7000 will replace it. It too was well reviewed, and already I can see that it addresses some of my few complaints about the C4000, but transitions like this take time.
…And, I might still be in love with the Olympus C8080. The 8080 has a very wide lens with a lot of glass up front. It was the camera Olympus made when they weren’t worried about making room for DSLRs, so it has a lot of pro features.
