Gamers Depot heeft een vergelijking klaarstaan van twee digitale (foto-)camera's die allebei plaatjes van 2.5 miljoen pixeltjes kunnen schieten. Het gaat hier om de Kodak DC-290 en de Olympus c2500L. Een duidelijke review met foto's erbij (altijd leuk). De conclusie is dat de Olympus het wint qua fotokwaliteit, maar de Kodak op het gebied van de gebruikersvriendelijkheid:
Though I didn’t fully get past my original angst over the design and controls of the Olympus 2500, it’s use of a TTL viewfinder is hopefully a sign of things to come in digital cameras. Unfortunately it is hampered with an inadequate serial interface, which is unacceptable for a camera at this price, either include the USB interface or bundle a USB reader. However, I come back to the uncompressed image quality this camera can produce and I start to feel better. As for the Kodak DC290 its image-quality for me is sub-par in a $1000 camera. Anyone who has never seen a 2 Megapixel digital camera image will be no less than blown-away by its vivid colors, however the mottling it produces in the standard compression mode and the exaggerated color saturation is disturbing to the professional eye.
Which Camera would I buy? Hands down I’d select the Olympus Camedia 2500, I didn’t realize how much I missed through-the-lens composing until I used this camera. If I had to recommend one of these to my mother, I’d recommend the Kodak, it’s more user friendly and makes cute noises (gag).
