Olympus C-720

Date of Review:  Jul 25, 2002
The Bottom Line: Buy it . . .now. You won't be sorry. Have fun with it, I am!
Review: If you're looking for a great digital camera for a great price, get the Olympus C-720. Like most of you, I'm not a professional photographer, but in the first week I was able to take what I consider to be some very nice shots. See some samples at...

Olympus C-720 Scores a Knockout!

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2003
The Bottom Line: The C-720 is durable digital camera that eats lightning and craps thunder, taking high-quality photos under wide variety of conditions. Plenty of camera for the cash, too.
Review: A long time ago, Mickey told Rocky "Speed, speed, speed is what we need!"

He wasn't kidding. And when it comes to capturing your sports memories with a digital camera, shutter speed has definitely got to be at the top of the priority list...

Waiting for something better

Date of Review:  Nov 10, 2002
The Bottom Line: The 8x optical zoom sets this one apart from the others-definite plus. I recommend this for still pictures, not something/someone that moves even a little.
Review: I looked all over the web for reviews and prices for a good digital camera. A local electronics store recommended an Olympus because they have a high quality lens without getting really pricey. The best part of this camera is the 8x optical zoom...

Nothing but Problems

Date of Review:  Jan 22, 2003
The Bottom Line: Choose a different camera.
Review: I did extensive research before purchasing this camera and ultimately chose it because of the zoom lens. It took me awhile to get used to using a digital camera, but once I did, I was really enjoying it. About a month after buying the camera,...

Excellent camera for amateur photographers! (link to pictures)

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great camera for photography enthusiasts who don't have a lot of money. You won't find another camera THIS good for under $100.
Review: This camera is a great starting point for interest in photography. It's for people who want to learn to take great pictures and do more than just point-and-shoot.

First off, it has a great owner's manual that I recommend you read from...

great camera used with ease

Date of Review:  Jan 13, 2003
The Bottom Line: Great pictures, easy to use, batteries last forever, can easily put pictures on the computer and be sending them online in seconds.
Review: This digital camera is the first digital camera I have ever owned. I was missing out big time. The Olympus C-720 is easy to transport, takes pictures with great quality, and is easy to use. For the most part I barely had to read the instructions to...

Great Little Camera

Date of Review:  Jun 26, 2003
The Bottom Line: Why wait this is the best camera in its price range! I am positive you will be happy with this camera.
Review: This is a nice camera for those who do not want to damage their pockets. The Olympus C-720 is a GREAT all around camera, weather you are taking pictures of the grandkids at the park or if your wanting to take the camera to a sporting event (this is...

Olympus C-720. Need the zoom? Then its a good buy.

Date of Review:  Aug 14, 2003
The Bottom Line: Fantastic features and good quality photos for a big zoom digital camera at a very affordable price.
Review: Experience
I bought this camera about 4 weeks ago from eBay. Since then I've used it to take about 300 shots from daylight to flash and have a good grasp of the controls and features already.

Previously I have only used point and...

Nice, but...

Date of Review:  Aug 7, 2002
The Bottom Line: If this camera had image stabilization, it would be wonderful. I could live without the autofocus, and movie sound. Come on, Olympus, at least throw in an a/c adapter!
Review: This was my first venture into digital cameras. I had used a few others before, but never bought one of my own.

The primary reason for getting the C720 was its great zoom. I love being able to take candid shots and having a nice zoom helps...
