I would recommend this camera to anyone. It is easy to use and understand the menu. This camera produces good images. It is light weight and easy to handle.

In the short amount of time I have had this, the pictures are ok - but not great. I have spent about all the time with this camera that I can stand tho due to one thing - when you power it off [not pull the battery - just power it off with power button ] the camera loses 90% of all the settings you have changed. So when you turn it back on most of your settings have reset to the default program. As an example, the scene mode defaults to "night scene" - Are you kidding me??? You can save most of your settings to a place called "my program" but the camera still does not save them all. This camera is the most unfriendly chunk of garbage I have ever used when it comes to cameras - I cannot recommend this thing at all unless you like programming constantly more than taking pictures.

This is the third Olympus digital camera I have owned. That is probably the main reason for my choice. My previous camera, the Camedia C4000 took excellent pictures; if I hadn't lost the camera, I would still be using it! I like this new one because it has many of the same features I am used to. It is smaller, more compact, but still takes great pictures. The C7000 is very easy to learn. It also has video with audio that my previous camera did not have. I few months back, I bought a Canon digital. After talking less than 100 pictures I returned the camera. I have always been a pretty good amateur photographer, but none of the pictures with this camera were good quality & many were slightly out of focus. I attributed this problem to the camera being so lightweight. It's great to have a pocket-sized camera; however, you must have a really steady hand to keep things in focus. I would highly recommend the C7000 digital camera to anyone wanting versatility & quality.Read full review
This camera was discontinued in 2006. That was ten years ago. I picked this up with everything included for $30 bucks. At one time retail was around $600. I've used loads of 14, 16 mp cameras and often been on the frustrating end of a load of grain in the photos. I've not had that issue with this camera. It's easy to use and allows you to set many of the settings manually. It works quite well in program auto as well. I've been very surprised that this camera outperforms my 2 year old nikon 9300 quite easily. It also offers Tiff and Raw files which gives you the option to choose a lossless image. It's unlikely you will find many cameras that will offer the choice of Raw at this price. It does take an xd card which is a dead format but you can find one for 10 bucks online. You will probably also need to purchase a $4 usb card reader to transfer your files. I can really see why this camera was so beloved on its initial release. It small, with a lot of features, yet easy to use. Takes great photos. Lots of fun to use.Read full review

I chose to purchase a slightly older P&S camera because the new cameras have lost the megapixel race; manufacturers have packed so many pixels on smaller and smaller sensors, leading to significant image quality issues from noise. I also prefer a camera with a viewfinder, as do many people who wear glasses. The C7000 may not be the smallest camera, but it's a sturdy, well built camera with a lot of nice features, including a large (for P&S cameras) sensor, RAW, TIFF, and JPG options, viewfinder, and 5x zoom. This is a great little camera for the photo enthusiast and/or professional who doesn't need the fastest camera, but does need a great little camera they can carry around and / or leave in the car for those surprise photo ops. I've sold many images from this camera (I had one already). Definitely a keeper!Read full review
Previously had same camera, but after an estimated sixty thousand pics, it quit working. The original cost about $600. This former display model was delivered to my door for $100. Sure, it is a little beat up, but still takes a good picture. I checked out features and picture quality of newer model cameras of similar size, but determined they were no better than the C7000. In fact, many had fewer features and pictures were no better. I would want to carry this camera even if I owned an SLR. I can just drop it in a pocket and always have it with me. The thing that bothers me most is its difficulty to focus in low light conditions. For its size, I haven't found another camera I would prefer.
