    4 Stars What a fantastic and simple camera. 22/06/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Compact, versatile and easy to use.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Uses batteries very quickly

    I have looked and looked for a digital camera for ages, to be honest as I am no expert I found the whole thing quite daunting. I have always been a 35mm type person and I feel quite confident with most aspects of normal cameras. But the whole digital field is new. I have used a few digital cameras but buying my own and what do I want it to do, that was something else. Then along came Christmas and the most amazing woman in the whole wide world had been out looking, researching and discreetly asking me about what I would look for. The end result is she gave me a really amazing present. I can ... more

    5 Stars For Snapshots and Beyond Snapshots 02/09/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Can be used for snapshots or more advanced photos. Easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Eats batteries. Software needs registering if you want extras

    I once swore that I would never bother with a digital camera. The cheap models produced disappointing "webcam" type results and a fortune would need to be paid to get anything that rivalled the 35mm SLR (Single Lens Reflex) cameras. However, all has changed within the space of a few years and with Dixons recently announcing they were due discontinue stocking conventional film cameras, I suppose it was inevitable I would be won over. Why I Needed One - I'm an Ebay user and the cheap webcam I used for placing photos of items I was auctioning just didn't hack it. I'm also a cheapskate who hates ... more

    3 Stars Simplicity itself 23/06/2011

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use, reliable, fits nicely in the hand, cheap to buy, reasonable sharpness and exposure

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Overdone saturation of some colours, no optical zoom, flash is iffy, garish menus, a bit bulky

    Introduction Ah, now this takes me back. The first person in my family to get a digital camera that was really much more than a toy was my dad, quite a few years ago now, and the camera he got was one of these things. He didn't have much choice in the matter, as it was an unexpected gift, but he could have done an awful lot worse, and even though the C-150 came out back in 2003 it is still good enough to sell fairly steadily on eBay, (luckily for me when I was getting one of my own!) not least because its lack of moving parts to get broken means that it remains quite a popular choice as a ... more

    2 Stars Don't Judge a Book By it's Cover! 08/10/2004
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Small and comfortable to hold.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Many - As stated in my review

    The Olympus Camedia C – 150 is in my opinion a step back wards for Olympus. One of the previous cameras to this is the C – 100, and to be honest, I use this camera mostly with the new one as a back up. The C – 150 comes with almost identical features, and options as the previous, but looks more stylish, is more comfortable to hold, is to an extent easier to use and takes less batteries. Also it is 2.0 Mega pixel rather then 1.3 mega pixels of the C – 100. The lens is bright, and has a large 1.8 Inch LCD monitor for convenience. It has a self-timer facility, which gives you plenty of time to ... more

    WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ When choosing a digital camera there are lots of choices you will have to make and just like all technology things change so often that one minute you will think you got a really good deal or the best camera around and the next you will think otherwise but we all have to make choices and in the perfect world we could have a test run on them before we buy,but we don't so we have to chose as wisely as we can. One of the things to look out for in digital cameras is whether there is zoom capability.The older optical cameras had just one one ... more
