Key Advantages

The Olympus Camedia C-4000 Zoom offers high-resolution 4.0 MP images suitable for quality prints. Its 3x optical zoom lens provides versatile framing options without digital loss of quality. The camera includes manual controls that allow users creative flexibility beyond automatic modes. Compact and lightweight design enhances portability for casual and travel photography. The use of standard AA batteries ensures easy power replacement worldwide. It also features an intuitive interface with a color LCD for convenient preview and settings adjustments.

Limitations

This model has a relatively small 1.5-inch LCD screen by modern standards, limiting detailed image review. ISO sensitivity is fixed at 100, which restricts performance in low light conditions. The absence of built-in flash compensation may challenge exposure in difficult lighting. Video recording capabilities are minimal with low resolution and short duration options only. SmartMedia card storage has limited capacity compared to contemporary memory cards. The camera's shutter speed range may not satisfy advanced photographers seeking longer exposures or ultra-fast shutter speeds.
