Steves Digicams Reviews Olympus C-8080 Wide Zoom

Mark Goldstein | Digital Compact Cameras | March 30, 2004 | 1 Comments

Olympus C-8080 Wide ZoomSteves Digicams have just reviewed the new 8-megapixel Olympus C-8080 Wide Zoom digital camera.

“The C-8080 also performed well outdoors. Images were consistently well-exposed and richly- saturated. The range of the zoom lens provides plenty of flexibility in shot composition, with the wide-angle 28mm focal length providing extra field of view for landscapes and the 140mm telephoto focal length bringing your distant subjects closer. The LCD viewfinder has a brightness adjustment, allowing it to be used even on bright days, but it has no anti-glare coating to prevent the reflection of direct sunlight; you’ll prefer to use the EVF on the brightest days.”

I just recently got my C-8080W and I have to say it by far the best camera I ever had! It's simplicity, quality and sturdy magnesium body convinced me right away. I was concidering the Sony 828 as well but after testing them side by side there was no thinking anymore..I strongly recommend the FL-50 additional flash even though it is very expencive!
