Recommended it? Yes

The new eight megapixel Olympus C8080WZ squares off very nicely against its competition from Nikon, Canon, Minolta, and Sony because Olympus' product development staff didn't just affix an 8 mega pixel CCD to an on hand platform.

Three months after Olympus release the C-8080 (8 mega pixel) digital camera, I was drooling to get my hands on it. I decided to sell my Olympus C-4000 Zoom and buy the C-8080.

Cons Buffer limited with RAW shooting

This model in the D-series camera range (D, DS, DS2, DL, DL2) is a truly capable and competent performer. I've had mine for close on 18 months now, so this is not a review based on the first rush of excitement. The very first impression is one of quality, with a solid, well-engineered body that has...
