Summary: C-2020 has all the fixes
Review: The newer model c-2020 has all the fixes except the lens cap tether. It comes with charger and NiMH batteries. They even moved the power on switch and changed the menu controls. I thought the software to be very good for most peoples use. A USB memory card reader is still a must have.

Summary: Beware Outdated Model!
Review: The 2000 is an outdated model. Current Model is the 2020 and it is better than the 2000.

Summary: Great quality pics and easy to use!
Review: The C-2000 has definitely exceeded my expectations. This camera rules!! The quality of the pictures is amazing-my prints look fabulous. One complaint-this camera eats batteries for a living! Make sure you buy the rechargeable batteries (I think the camera should have shipped with rechargeables). Also you may want to invest in larger smartmedia cards as the C-2000 ships with an 8mg which only holds 8 pics at max resolution.

Summary: Lovin' it!
Review: The camera is postively amazing. The quality of the pictures are great, the controls are easy to pick-up (even for someone who is new to photography), and if you bring it to a party---the "oohs" and "ahhs" will still be echoing throughout the room hours after you leave. Two friends, after borrowing and playing with the camera, have since went out a bought their own (I wanted mine back!). The only grudge I have is not really against the camera itself, but the company. When you buy the camera...make sure you also buy a 32mb Smartmedia card (the 8mb card that comes with it is nothing), make sure it also *comes with* 4 NiMH rechargable batteries (the camera is supposed to come with these!), and buy a Floppy Path Adapter (though optional...makes downloading the images *a lot* quicker).

Summary: Great product but has some quirks
Review: The Olympus takes excellent pictures and quickly can transfer pictures to your PC.It does go through batteries extremely quickly.

Summary: Great pictures and function with poor design layout
Review: The pictures are very good. The camera handles white balance and exposure extremely well. Printed 8x10's show no noticable "grain." The memory cards slip in and out easily. Purchasing a seperate card reader for my PC has been very handy for unloading the photos to my PC. The power on/off switch is located on top where one would expect the shutter button to take the picture. A common occurance when people try the camera is to turn it off accidently when trying to take the picture.

Summary: Great photos, Batteries are MAJOR issue
Review: This camera takes great pictures and is easy to understand and use. It has a MAJOR drawback though, and I may be returning this camera and buying a different one. The drawback.... It EATS batteries ! A set of Heavy Duty Alkalines will barely last 20 minutes (even with the LCD display turned off.)! I bought two sets of 1200 MA rechargeable batteries from Radio Shack plus a quick charger ($60 worth), and can barely get one set recharged before the other runs down. Don't count on being able to fill up your 8Meg flashcard AND download pictures on the same set of batteries! A second NECESSITY is the AC Adapter. Without this accessory, battery life becomes even more of a problem. This should be a standard feature with this camera. We own a Toshiba and a Sony, and neither one of them consumes power like the Olympus.

Summary: Good camera, a few design issues
Review: This is the second digital camera that I have used in the last 30 days -- I started off with the Kodak DC280. I like the Kodak controls better, but the Olympus fits my hand well. The power switch on the Olympus is where the shutter should be, and, the menu commands (such as delete last picture) are not terribly intuitive. Also, the flash is closer to the lens than the Kodak, so red-eye is more of a problem. But, the 3x zoom makes the difference for me, we'll learn how to use the controls. Definitely get a USB PC Card reader to move the pictures to your PC, the serial connection is VERY slow. Finally, Olympus makes the mistake of giving you regular alkaline batteries in the box. Throw them out, get some NiMH batteries and avoid the frustration of having your batteries fail after 5 pictures and thinking that something is wrong with the camera.

Summary: Lens cap suggestion.
Review: Took only one day to part company with the lens cap of the C2000Z. Found that the plastic top from a quart milk bottle works just fine as a replacement. After two weeks of traveling I still have it. And yes you still have to remove it before turning on the camera.
