Summary: Good for Photo, Bad for Movie
Review: I bought this camera when it first come out. In photo mode, it's cool (i guess whatever new model of DC which will take pretty good photos now). Other than taking Photos, it will take short movie clips too... However, when i look at the spec before i buy it. It says "15 sec Quick Time Movie using 8MB card". Then i thought that's because of the small size memory. The true is the camera really can only take 15 seconds of each movie clip... if u have a 16mb card, u may take 2-3 movies... Imagine how many things you can do in 15sec... Compare to other camera, such as fuji, they shoot 80sec of avi movie, and the quality is a lot better when you are not shooting movie under the sun. You may say, if shooting movie, go get a Mini DV.. but 15sec/clip is really not enough.. also you will get lots of noise pixel when u are shooting indoor movie. No sound when previewing a movie on the camera. When recording movie, it will capture the disk writing sound and is very noisy. It's in Quick time movie, and i found that not every computer has quicktime player, so i need to download the player everytime i am showing the movie in a new place. Beside the movie, it takes me a 2 days and i still can't find out how to do autonumber on the image file. Finally the Tech Support answer me in few days (that i've already made a refund) telling me that it can be change in the software browser. The 10X zoom is great. But compare to 3X zoom DC, it doesn't give me a big surprise. Just a little closer to the object. But Overall, it's not a bad camera. The image mode is pretty good. Hoping to see more buffer to the moive mode in the future camera, also a speaker is neccessary for instant movie. That is the major reason i don't keep the camera.

Summary: Amazing Product
Review: I was recently given an Olympus D460, I wanted to upgrade to a 2 Megapixel camera for added photo options. I did a lot of research and was set on the Olympus 2040. But then Olympus came out with the C-700. It blew my research out of the water. It has 10x optical zoom, with a very appealing price. The only other camera that has this (right now) is the Olypmus 2100, which is a bit more pricey. This camera will not let you down. I am a novice when it comes to photography, so I wanted a camera that had a lot of options (like full manual control)that would allow me to "grow" with the camera, but at the same time had the ease of a point-and-shoot. This camera fits the bill perfectly. It is a 2 megapixel camera which will turn some of the "big boy" photographers away, but unless you are going to blow your pictures up to 11x14 or bigger, 2 megapixels will suit you just fine. You will be able to print amazing 8x10's, you will not be able to tell the difference if you had then printed at a photo-shop. 4x6's and 5x7's are stunning. The image quality that this camera puts out is truely second to none. There are also many other little "toys" that come with this camera. It is capable of recording Quicktime Movies with audio. So, if you want to email a picture to mom, you can send her a picture as well as a little message saying "Here I am at Blah, blah." As with any digital camera, you will need to get rechargeable batteries and a bigger memory card. You will not be disappointed with this camera!

Summary: Excellent camera
Review: This camera was recommended to me by a friend of mine. I'm not an expert in photography. Even I could learn to use it after a short time. The camera has a long battery life and it's easy to take excellent photographs. ý took pictures at different lightning conditions and they were all impressive. So it hadn't been to much time but I'm really more than satisfied with this camera.

Summary: Still enjoy it!
Review: I've owned this camera for several years now and although the resolution is starting to get low by todays standards, I still greatly enjoy this camera. I absolutely love the 10x zoom, and the pictures taken are much better than if you would have a cheapy low-end 3-4 megapixel camera. For anyone on a budget, this camera now offers alot of quality for an affordable price.

Summary: Slick little gadget.
Review: Overall, I like this camera lot. Since many others have waxed poetic in this vein, I'll concentrate on what it doesn't do well. My two major complaints:
1. The small black and white viewfinder is useless in sunlight. One can use the bigger LCD screen as a viewfinder, but it really eats batteries.
2. There is a several second delay between the time you press the shutter button and the time the image is actually captured. The camera is busily focusing and adjusting itself during this time. This makes it difficult to catch fleeting expressions in people's faces, and if you're working with a toddler, they can be long gone by the time the camera takes the picture!

Summary: Zoom Zoom Zoom
Review: This is a great camera - the zoom being the reason I purchased it. If you can, find a copy of "A Short Course in Olympus Camedia C-700 Ultra Zoom Photography" by Dennis P. Curtin to get the most out of this camera!

Summary: Very Happy with Purchase
Review: Finally after my 35mm camera was lost in a move I decided to take the plunge into digital. My wife was sold on the 10X zoom, and many reveiwers selected this as the top camera in that category. Since the purchase, it has consistently performed above all my expectations. I can print 8X10 pictures with great detail, or take multiple lower quality pictures to e-mail to family. We just had twins and use this camera every day to update the family. All of our friends and family have been impressed with the quality, ease of use, and versatility of the camera and we have convinced four others to make the same purchase. One reccomendation -- spend the money on the 128 megabyte card. I have never had to worry about a full memory card since we bought the big one. PROS: great picture quality, ease of use, amazing zoom.
CON: not the smallest camera on the market
Reccomended accessories: rechargable AA batteries, 128 megabyte smartmedia card
