Product Description

The CAMEDIA C-2040 Zoom is a perfect example of how some things get better with age. Offering all the functions of its elder C-2020 Zoom digital camera, the Olympus C-2040 additionally provides the world's first Super Bright 1.8-2.6 3x Optical zoom lens which extends the flash working range for shooting at greater distances and in lower-light conditions. For greater flexibility, the CAMEDIA C-2040 Zoom features up to a 2.5x digital zoom and up to a 5x digital zoom in VGA mode. Helping to capture these images at a high-quality image resolution is the camera's 2.11 megapixel 1/2-inch RGB CCD. These images can then be transferred more quickly than in previous models due to the "Storage Class" USB design to instantly mount the camera to your USB Mac or Windows computer. As for power, the C-2040 Zoom can be used with CR-3V (LB-01) batteries as well as AA Ni-MH, alkaline, lithium or NiCd to provide a longer life battery capability.

Amazon.com Product Description

An upgrade to Olympus' respected (and discontinued) C-2020, the C-2040 incorporates all of its predecessor's features plus a faster lens, easier connection to your computer, and improved image processing. The fast f1.8-2.6 lens is clearly the central feature of the new model. According to Olympus, the lens lets the C-2040 shoot in lower light conditions, which allows you to shoot flash-free in more situations and increases the effective range of the flash. The 2.11 megapixel CCD in the C-2040 captures images at a resolution of 1600 x 1200, in both the JPEG and uncompressed TIFF formats, and an 8 MB internal buffer allows you to shoot at 1.4 frames per second at high resolution and low compression levels. Additionally, the camera can record short QuickTime movies with sound.

The camera can be operated in several modes: in programmed-auto mode, the camera does everything for you; in aperture- and shutter-priority modes, you get to set the aperture or priority, and the camera does the rest; in full manual mode, you have control over all camera functions. Images can be downloaded to either a Mac or PC via the included USB cable, or viewed on your television using the included video cable. The camera includes USB storage class connectivity, which means it can be connected to any USB-based Windows Me/2000 and Mac OS 8.6 or later computer without installing any software. The C-2040 also ships with two CR-3V long-life disposable lithium batteries (four AA batteries can also be used), an 8 MB SmartMedia card, strap, and software.

I love this camera!.......2003-10-03

I own this camera and have used it for almost 3 years now. It has been through Christmas, Easter, Birthdays, Anniversaries, trips to Yellowstone and Disney World. I always get the best pictures. The pictures my husband and I took at Yellowstone were phenomenal. They rivaled many of the post cards we saw for sale, especially of the Lower falls. This is a very easy point and shoot type camera. I only wish the optical zoom was greater than 3X.

great camera.......2003-05-14

I have had this camera for around two years now. I am in the military and travel alot. I have used the heck out of this thing. It has never failed me. It provides wonderful pictures. I just bought the remote and am looking forward to trying it out. The one down side is: nothing. I did buy a usb smartmedia reader for PC. It sped up the download from the camera like crazy. That is a must. The supplied software is not the best though. It does often lock up my system. And I have a very up to date system.
This camera is a very very good one. It is very durable as well. I have flown all over the place toting this thing along my side and have bumped it here and there and never had even a little problem with it.

It can be as simple or complicated as you want.......2002-05-28

The Olympus C-2040 has been nothing short of perfect for my first digital camera. It can be wonderfully simple for the point and shoot photographers, and it can also be set up for more complicated shots (adjusting shutter speeds, ISO, and many other things that can go over a tourist photographer's head)

If you want to jump into the digital camera market, and don't want to feel the need to replace a "beginner's digital camera" in a year or so this is absolutely the one.

Just make sure you buy a larger memory card to go with the camera. You'll soon find that since you don't have to worry about running out of film you can take several shots of the same scene to hopefully get that perfect memory.

The Olympus C-2040Z - a second review.......2002-04-29

I wish to add further comments to my first review of this camera. Now that I have had a chance to use it, I know that I made the right decision when I bought the Olympus C-2040Z. I could not be more satisfied. It takes some of the sharpest pictures these old eyes have ever seen, especially nature shots. I have pictures taken by this camera and printed on my Epson C-80 printer that are National Geographic quality. And I am talking about 8X10 prints in full living color. This camera has more than met my expectations. I cannot recommend it strongly enough. The excellent review by Consumers Reports should help further convince anyone who might be trying to decide which camera is the one for him or her.

Excellent mid priced camera.......2002-04-13

I bought this camera as my first digital camera, and I love it. easy to download pictures to PC via usb. Excellent features and settings. Does use batteries up, but get some Lithium rechargeables. Excellent picture quality, works well as point & shoot if you don't want to learn all about the other settings. I mostly store & view images on CD/PC but print quality of pictures is high for smaller sizes ie: 4"x6", if you want to print lots of larger pictures, you may consider a higher pixel camera. Overall great camera.
