  2 mega-pixel digital cameras
 
I persuaded my boss to update the digital camera we use at work, so I went and purchased an Olympus Camedia C-2000. This new camera is a 2 million pixel job meaning it photographs at 1600x1200. Naturally I felt obliged to give it a road-test, so (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jul-99, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Those do look great. I would like to get the new Nikon Coolpix 950, which is similar in price and features, I believe. (...) I recall seeing a test/review of the C-2000 and that Nikon, and I think they did mention that the C-2000 seemed to use (...) (25 years ago, 18-Jul-99, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Yeah, I've been looking into digital cameras recently (in fantasy-shopping mode, sadly), and the Coolpix 950 is my top choice. And in the lower price category, if you don't need zoom, the Coolpix 700 seems totally the best choice. (25 years ago, 19-Jul-99, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Equivelent in some ways, but lacking the main advantage: you can instantly see your results and delete bad pictures right away. And pictures are basically free.
