My first digital camera was the Olympus C-420L (http://old-digitalcameras.com/MorePicts/MP169.htm http://old-digitalcameras.com/MorePicts/MP169.htm) way back in 2001. I was 13 years old and had been fascinated by digital imagery. I started with an HP flatbed scanner scanning film photos but knew that digital cameras were the future.
The camera took better pictures than many of the entry-level offerings from Kodak and Canon that came even YEARS later.
I remember buying it at Staples and having them price match from the internet (saving me something like $150) before internet price-matching stopped being a thing (until it started being a thing again in the past couple years).
- devereaux 8y agoThe Olympus were amazing! I personally had a D360L and the pictures were extremely good: 1.3 MP and always ready to shoot with plain AA batteries. https://www.amazon.com/Olympus-D-360L-1-3-Digital-Camera/dp/B00004R8V6 https://www.amazon.com/Olympus-D-360L-1-3-Digital-Camera/dp/... It had a smartmedia (like the Rio 500) and I too got it from Staples or somewhere with a price match too
