I'm using an Olympus Brio D-100 (2x digital
zoom) that I've had for a couple of years now
and have had no problems with it or the
Olympus software. It's only a 1.7 megapixel
but the D-380 that replaced it is 2.1. They use
SmartMedia cards that go up to 128 mb. Mine
came with an 8 meg card which gives 122
pics at Standard Quality (for e-mail), 36 for
High Quality ( for general snapshots), and 18
Super High Quality (if you are going to enlarge
detailed images). I also bought a 64 meg card
($28.00 at w-mart) which gives 331 SQ, 99 HQ
and 35 SHQ. My D-100 came with a USB to
USB cable and Camdedia softwear for the
computer interface along with a camera to TV
cable and a charger with 2 Ni-MH batteries.
The LCD screen is sharp and clear whether in
monitor or review mode. In macro it is easy to
see what your close-ups will be like. A real
plus is the fact that they use AA batteries so
you can use nickel-metal hydride
rechargeables and never be without power for
all practical purposes. The Ni-MH batteries
can be had for as little as $9.00 for 4 with a
recharger. The image attached was taken at
HQ setting with no zoom. MacAddict magazine
reviewed the D-100 and, after listing its'
pluses and minuses, declared that "if you just
want to take good pictures go out and get
one!" so I did and I'm very well pleased! By the
way, the May '03 issue of Consumer Reports
has a good review of digital cameras as well
as scanners, printers, etc. :-)
