Description from the seller
Are you chasing the legendary Olympus colors and a build quality that nowadays you almost never find?
This Olympus C-8080 Wide Zoom is a powerhouse for the serious photographer. With its bright f/2.4 lens and rugged magnesium body, this doesn’t feel like a gadget, but a true instrument.
Resolution: 8.0 Megapixels (enough for sharp prints).
Lens: 5x optical Wide Zoom (28-140mm equivalent) – perfect for landscapes and portraits.
Light gathering: f/2.4 - f/3.5 (beautiful bokeh and good in low light).
Screen: Tilt LCD screen for tricky angles.
Condition: In very neat condition, glass scratch-free.
An ideal camera for those who want manual control without lugging heavy lenses.
Includes 2 batteries/charger/xD and CF memory cards and camera bag...
Here are the main highlights summarized:
Legendary Optics:
The camera is renowned for its razor-sharp f/2.4-3.5 lens. This lens is of the same quality as the professional Zuiko lenses for SLRs.
CCD Sensor Colors:
Unlike modern CMOS sensors, the 8.0 MP CCD sensor of this Olympus offers a film-like color rendition that is currently very popular (the vintage digicam trend).
Rugged Build Quality:
The body is made of a magnesium alloy. It feels like a tank and, thanks to the deep grip, sits wonderfully in the hand.
Tiltable Screen:
Equipped with a unique retractable LCD screen, ideal for macro photography or shooting from difficult angles.
Dual Slot:
Supports both CompactFlash (CF) and xD-Picture Cards.
Super Macro:
Can focus from as close as 5 cm, which makes it fantastic for detail shots.
