by surferdude7 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Nov 10 '01
Pros: It gives you excellent photo quality!
Cons: No rechargeable batteries included and the 16MB SmartMedia card is too small!

Olympus Camedia D-40 Zoom Digital Camera - Millions and Millions of Pixels in your Palm

by jag2112 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Mar 21 '02
Pros: Compact, stylish, easy to use, 4 megapixels, great optics and more...
Cons: Pricey. Small (16mb) included media card.
Well, perhaps not millions and millions of pixels...more like 4 million pixels, but believe me, 4 million pixels in this compact, stylish, powerful and easy to use digital camera from Olympus is sufficient enough for most amateur and semi-serious...

IS IT PURTY?...

by splinky313 , Jul 03 '02
Pros: 4.0 Megapixel,Small Size, Lots Of Features
Cons: None
Introduction
I am referring to the amount of megapixels. I’m going to compare my old camera which I have had for about 2 years with one I just bought last week. I have a two year old Olympus D460 digital camera that has 1.3 megapixels, and I just...

OLYMPUS D-40: The Near-Perfect Camera

by postleos , May 05 '04
Pros: Compact and Slick, 4-5 Megapixels, Price, Various Photo settings
Cons: SmartMedia limited, Battery life could be better, tinted photos, too many options?
After delving into the landscape with a Fuji 2600 2.0 Megapixel digital camera my sister bought me from Hong Kong. I was hooked. I loved the size of my little compact Fuji 2600, the conveniences and money saved on photo-finishing, and the overall ease ...

Great camera, bit expensive

by djpark , Jan 05 '03
Pros: Small, Light, Easy to Use, 4 Megapixel!
Cons: Not great battery life, Cannot put any lenses on it
I bought this camera, because I wanted a digital camera and I saw it in Costco with a rebate, and I knew that 4.0 Megapixels were quite a bit so I picked it up.

Since my purchase I have used the camera quite a bit in many...

The Best of the Best

by allen2oo3 , Feb 27 '02
Pros: Size, looks, image quality
Cons: Included batteries, no protective case included
I recently purchased this camera; it is unbelievable. Prior to this camera I had a Nikon coolpix 775. The Nikon was nice with the 2.1-mega pixels but it can’t compare to the d-40’s 4 mega pixels. The image quality is extremely sharp and precise. The...

The D-40 can definitely replace a C-line camera

by adschachter , Jul 19 '02
Pros: small size yet retains features of the C-line of Olympus Cameras
Cons: Could use a slightly faster lens (f 2.0), but not absolutely necessary.
After roughly 25 years of experience in advanced amateur photography, I have come up with one law of good photography: You're much more likely to make a great photograph if you have your camera with you.

I used to carry around a couple of SLRs...

Great Family Camera

by el_guapo , Mar 26 '03
Pros: High Quality Pics, Small, Automatic and Manual settings
Cons: SmartMedia Card, only 2.8 optical zoom, Short Battery Life, no accessories
When we were expecting our first child, we started shopping around for a digital camera. Because we also wanted the ability to print high-resolution 8 x 10 photos, we started by looking at 4 megapixel cameras.

When we saw the Camedia D40 Zoom...

Miracle in your pocket

by tech_albritton , May 29 '02
Pros: Carry-everywhere size, superior resolution, no loose lens cap
Cons: Weak flash with long recycle time
I wanted to give this little beauty an overwhelming positive review, with 5 stars across the board, but the criteria defined here prevent me from fully venting my enthusiasm. First, ease of use is 4 stars only because there are SO many features that you...

No buyer's remorse for me!

by rootus , Dec 12 '01
Pros: Outstanding picture quality, pocket size camera, rugged design
Cons: Cost, small included memory card
Just bought this camera, and have been playing around with it quite a bit. I was going to buy it online, and so I went to the local Fry's to have a look first to be sure it was what I wanted (I later ended up buying it at Costco, which had it for the...

Amazing!

by sablemom , May 18 '02
Pros: small, takes AA batteries in a pinch
Cons: menu-intensive, but i think i've figured them out!
I am a working mom with no photography experience though I love taking pictures. This was my second digital camera - my first was a $49 special that I returned after about 10 shots. I will keep this one until it dies! I took it to DisneyWorld and took...

Love It!

by emblad , Mar 07 '02
Pros: Compact, excellent picture quality
Cons: no case, drains batteries, no AC adapter
I was a reluctant convert to the world of digital photography. However, this little vunderkamera can produce images that are consistently as good as I was able to get with my Nikon SLR. Aside from great Auto exposures, you can easily choose portrait,...
