Thanks Phred, Pam, and Pams Hubby!
I found the Olympus site and found out all about the C-120, also the Fuji site which didn`t tell me much more than I already knew about the A202!Then I found a review site here in the UK where one (ordinary) person was actually comparing the two cameras! And two other reviews of the Olympus. After reading all that I am now 99.9% certain I am going to get the Olympus.
Phred, I checked the service stuff (thanks!) and yes there is a service site in the UK, in London. An I think I know what you mean about the zoom stuff, unfortunatly the opical zoom cameras are too expensive to consider this time, maybe for next years birthday!
Pams Hubby, thanks for the tips about the memory card and batteries. I can get a Smartmedia card from the place I get my printer cartridges at a reasonable price, (I am presuming compatibility). The NiMh batteries and charger will have to wait until I get paid next, I will have to do with the normal Alkaline for now, it also uses Nicab batteries and I have a charger and batteries of those, (well, I do need to get another 2 batteries!).
Just a word about the camera I already have, which I got last year. It is a Goodmans 1.3 and a grand little camera, very inexpensive too, only cost £79, as you can see more than half the cost of the Olympus, but I have taken some good pics with it. It does have a some drawbacks though, first of all the 1.3pixels, second, it does not have a viewer on the camera, I don`t see the pics until I upload. And lastly, it doesn`t have an expanandable (sp?) memory, just an 8MB internal memory, though it hasn`t been a problem for me really, I can take up to 40 @1280x960 pics before having to upload off......*thinks*why is it I`m getting a new one?.....Anyway....
If I put the order in tonight, oh, maybe not it is nearly 11.30! so, order early in the morning then, and if it is in stock, I could have the camera by Thursday!
Thanks again!![]()
