Olympus C-5050

Just got this camera a week or so ago and have been getting used to all the bells and whistles.

It is one fine camera. I kept the image small for our dial-up friends.

I give this baby:imageimage

The good thing about having multiple personalities is that there's always a designated driver.

Yes, I'm an agent of Satan but my duties are largely ceremonial.

    that looks awesome! does it take close ups with the coin flat and not tilted just as good?
  • Yes it will. The problem with this particular shot is that I was so close the lens was casting a shadow. I had to tilt it for lighting.

  • That s a nice camera Frank. I always meant to ask you what the quote in your signature line means. I would understand if you didnt want to answer that question.

    it's just a spoof, wwq. It could imply my grandfather was a bus driver, or airplane pilot, or something along those lines, as in he had heart failure at the wheel of something unstoppable - however it is only a spoof and not seated in reality.

    Truth be known, I never had the pleasure of meeting him, as he passed away nearly 15 years before I was born.

  • It's a great camera -- I've had it for a year now and have been happy with it (everything except the shutter speed). Still haven't figured out how to take pictures this nice though...

    I purchased the same camera a few months ago and it is a remarkable camera. I haven't had the opportunity to do much with it yet do to being very busy at work, but for the price its terrific.

    Awesome picture! I can't wait to rip my C5050 out of the box Christmas morning.
