Olympus C-7000 Zoom Digital Camera Sample Photos and Specifications

My perfect camera has to do two things very well. First, it has to deliver superior results. Second, it has to be portable. I think this Olympus C-7000 comes the closest to perfect and this is the one that I bought. For superior results I thought I wanted a dSLR, but after handling one I realized I wouldn't often want to take something that large and vulnerable with me. The Canon G6 and S70 are the only other cameras that I took any serious interest in. The G6 was tempting but still a little thick (especially the grip bump). The S70 was tempting too, but still longer than the C-7000. Neither Canons offer as much zoom as the C-7000 (5x optical), though they both offer a wider angle. I gave only four stars because I still wonder how it compares to the G6 in light gathering ability. Maybe I'll upgrade it to five stars once I settle that issue. I was determined to buy a Canon or a Nikon. I had no thought toward buying an Olympus. This camera impressed me enough that now Olympus has a new customer. Nice job Olympus.
