Summary: Good for basic snapshots only
Review: This camera is a great entry-level unit. The quality of pictures is fine for the casual user, and for viewing on your computer and printing out small pics.

However, if you want to use a zoom, forget it. The 2x digital zoom is worthless on this camera, since if you zoom at all, you can see many pixels.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Digital Camera for the money but...
Review: I've owned this camera for over a week now. Excellent picture quality and easy to use. The only problem is that it does drain batteries -- please buy rechargeables ASAP or you will go through quite a bit of AA batteries.

Overall -- Very good camera! It will be hard to upgrade from this camera. Picture quality -- excellent, Ease of use - great, USB connectivity -- flawless...

If you've *never* owned a digital camera -- this is the perfect starting Digital camera.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: OK For Everyday
Review: If I had it to do over again I would have bought a camera with a higher pixel count. This camera is great for everyday snapshots but falls short if you want to take sports or action pics. The flash takes forever to recharge and the delay for autoflash is just stupid slow. The digital zoom is pretty worthless since the pixel count is so low. A great deal if all you do is take the family snapshots at holidays.

Summary: D-100 -- skip it! They have short life spans
Review: My D-100 was, for 1 month, a total joy. Then it turned belly up for no reason whatsoever... dead. Wouldn't power up at all. Tech recommended letting it sit without batteries for a full 24 hours so it would return to factory default settings. Didn't bring it back to life. This camera was handled with such extreme care that one might say I went overboard. And it died anyway. As for battery life, it went fine for days and days and days, 100s of shots on 2 NicM AA rechargable batteries. That is until it died. I went to the Olympus forum on D-100s. Nothing but horror stories and tales of woe. Skip it. Get something else. Waste of nearly $200.

Summary: D-100 Reliability
Review: I bought a D-100 in September 2001 and althought it takes great pictures It's been back for repair twice. First with the 1E10 error and then because of shading on the left side of the pictures. I'm beginning to think this model is "Snake Bit".

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty good one for the money you spend
Review: I've had very good results with this camera. The pictures are of excellent clarity. May be the best bet for a 1.3 Mega pixel digi cam. No provision for using rechargeable batteries.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It suits my needs as an entry level camera, and works fine.
Review: I had been looking for an affordable digital camera that I can slip in my pocket yet one that produces acceptable quality pictures. I think that the C-100 (c-You in Europe) meets these requirements.

I had no problems installing the camera in Windows XP but I have to admit I did not use the additional software yet. My only dissapointment is the battery life, which may be influenced by the heavy downloading by the computer and the video screen usage, but it's a standard AA battery input so you can just slip in those batteries.

The quality is OK for what I need it for, just take the SHQ (which indeed may require a 64MB chip rather than the supplied 8MB one). If you are looking for state of the art camera's, skip this one, but if you are looking for a second camera or an entry level model, I think this one is definitely the best one in the market right now.
