Michael Reichmann’s recent review of the Olympus C-8080 Wide Zoom digital camera provoked a lot of negative feedback on various discussion forums. In his latest essay, Michael looks at what is important when it comes to evaluating a new camera.

“In the end both image quality and a camera’s operational quality are equally important. No camera is perfect, and few are perfectly bad. For some photographers who don’t have a lot of experience with a wide range of equipment, and of working under difficult conditions, where seemingly small operational features can make the difference between getting the shot or not, my complaints may seem like so much unfair griping.”
