Olympus Camedia C-60 Zoom Review
|
Review Summary
Reader Score: 6.43 (out of 10)
On the whole, I think the C-60's positives more than outweigh its negatives, but how you feel about them will depend a lot on the sort of shooting you intend to do, and how you intend to use your images. If you need to shoot at high ISOs a lot and make large prints (larger than 8x10) with the results, the C-60's image noise could be a factor. On the other hand, point and shoot users mainly making 4x6 prints probably won't be aware of it. (But then, those users really don't need 6 megapixels of resolution, either.)

| With its sensible mix of features and capabilities, the 6-megapixel Olympus Camedia C-60 Zoom is targeted at beginners and still-learning photo buffs who want a good-quality, relatively compact digital camera. It builds on the strengths of the C-50 Zoom by ratcheting up the camera's resolution, battery capacity (1,230mAh vs. 1,100mAh), LCD screen size (1.8 inches vs. 1.5 inches), and connection speed (USB 2.0 vs. USB 1.1). Additional features include 13 different shooting modes and a nearly full complement of manual settings, a broad range of shutter speeds (1/1,000 second to 8 seconds), and a 3X optical zoom. There are a few pleasant surprises, such as the My Mode settings saver, which is easily accessible from the mode dial. There's also the odd misstep, including a power mechanism that's way too sensitive. |
