Reviewed on: 5 November 2004
Tags: olympus, scene, mini, conditions
We like:
Eye-catching design; selection of camera colours; weatherproof body; lots of scene modes and special effects such as fish-eye distortion
We don't like:
No optical viewfinder; zoom limited to 2x; awkward shape precludes one-handed shooting; slow autofocus in dim light; mediocre image quality
You might also need:
An xD-Picture Card with a capacity of at least 64MB
CNET.co.uk judgement:
A sexy design can't overcome the average picture quality and mediocre performance of this ultracompact 4-megapixel shooter
