Pros: great shot quality, easy to use, many photo options
Cons: Pricey $850, uses a lot of power.
The Olympus C-3000 is my second foray into the digital camera market. My first purchase, a Sony was an unmitigated disaster, so this time I went for a manufacturer with some background in the photographic world, Olympus.
