What owners like
Olympus D-150Z (C-1Z) works best when you want simple snapshots, direct flash, and the relaxed character people look for in older digital compacts rather than a technically perfect modern camera; its 1/3.2-inch (4.544 x 3.408 mm) CCD and 38-114 mm equivalent, F2.8-8 are the main character of the look.
Common complaints
Check the lens movement, flash, screen, buttons, and card door calmly before relying on it; older compact bodies can need a little patience without being a bad buy.
