Advantages: Takes AAA batteries and....er.....er...hmmmm.... takes AAA batteries Disadvantages: Awful screen, not user friendly, feels cheap and nasty, made out of inferior materials etc. etc.
I needed a new digital camera and fast and only having the ability to get to Argos (because of the late night opening times) the camera had to be available from Argos. The other criteria I set included a minimum of 12 mega pixels, face detection, a large screen, powered by AAA batteries and costing no more than £100. With the large number of cameras satisfying my criteria I thought I would have no problems in finding something suitable, it?s just a shame the Argos in Norwich is so poor and seems to have very little stock, so my choice was limited.
Since my first and second choices were out, I only had the option of three other models and the one I decided upon (without doing any research whatsoever) was the OlympusX-42. I had previously owned an Olympus and I was more than happy with it. I knew the Olympus brand and knew ...

Advantages: Easy to use, compact, durable Disadvantages: You have to close the shutter to view pictures
I am a complete amateur photographer who is always seeking the perfect photograph, and after many years of trying different cameras (both 35mm & digital) I think I have found perfection.
This snappy little camera is very easy to use, it has the capability to point and shoot but has the features available if you want to be a little more adventurous.

I don't very often actually print in bulk the pictures that I take but instead use them as my screen saver, so that I can look at them over and over again. I have just got back from my holiday and decided that I would print off 50 pictures this time to show family ...
