If you own fine 35mm and/or large-format cameras, and have toyed with the idea of trying digital, read on at your own risk. You may -- like me -- never pick up your Leica M4P or Canon F1 or Mamiya 645 systems again.
Let me tell you the only negative about this camera first: The color correction of the CCD under low tungsten illumination and fluorescent lighting resembles Ektachrome 400, circa 1970.
That's it. That's the only defect.
You're going to love this camera. Many reviewers wish for a 3.3 megapixel chip, vs. the 2.1 mp chip in this 2100. The recent introduction of cameras with the same image stabilized 10x lens/2.1 mp CCD system from Canon and Sony suggests some rethinking among the manufacturers of these cameras. Simply put, the ability to fill frames with image trumps the cameras with 3.3mp CCDs and smaller zoom ranges. To accommodate those 3.3 mp CCDs, one needs a larger buffer memory...which means a longer write-time...which means either a slower-shooting camera or a greater battery drain, or both, to match the frame-to-frame shooting capability of this lens/CCD/buffer combination. It also means your storage media demands will escalate dramaticaly, as will your needs for imaging media. Add the image stabilization feature, which has some kind of gyro motor running all the time, and you'd end up with unacceptable battery drain, if your had a 3.3 mp CCD.
This camera offers two displays -- one the traditional 1.8 inch "TV" display, and the other, an SLR-like eye-level display. At first, you'll be disappointed in the graininess of the eye-level display. And yet, you will be surprised at the speed with which you'll accommodate that.
The camera offers a 35mm lover's range of creative control, plus features you'd never dream of finding in an SLR or rangefinder.

I consider my self an amateur photograher. I enjoy the simplicity of point and shoot but get frustrated with the limitations this imposes. The C2100 does great in point and shoot mode, but lets you manualy control some or all of the exposure settings. Manual focus worked well in taking picutres of fish below the surface. If you want you can specify a standard ISO value. All exposure settings are displayed in the view finder or LCD and stored with your exposure so you can compare and tweek until the shot is perfect. Even the flash brightness is adjustable. I was surprised on how many features this camera has and how many were user adjustable. The movie mode runs at 15 frames per second so it's a little jerky and the built microphone leaves a little to be desired. It points off to the left side of the camera instead of forward (there is an optional microphone port). You can also record 4 second sound bytes with each still shot (a good way to keep brief notes). The camera has an action shot mode which did a good job in freezing birds in flight. However setting up the camera for specific shots can be a little time consuming when you're first learning (I missed more than several shots at first). If your're out for action shots you'll have to plan and setup ahead of your shot and there is a delay between "click" and "shutter". You can reduce time between still shots by turning autofocus on continously (shortens battery life). The drive mode will do sequential shots. The time between shots is 0.5 to 0.67 seconds depending on resolution. If you plan to use the movie mode or high resolution shots I would recommend getting a 64mb card (holds 128 exposures 1600x1200 in standard jpeg format).Read more ›

The C-2100 is said to be based on the C-2000/C2020 which have been praised for taking brilliant images. Yet the camera works and operates like the latest C-3000/C-3030 series with additional features like audio/video recording, fast continuous shootings, continuous digital zoom, fast USB downloads, etc. Plus the camera has unique features of its own such as TTL (through the lens) LCD viewfinder, 27x continuous zoom (10x optical + 2.7x digital), optical image stabilization, more dedicated button adjustments (so you don't have to roll through the menus), exposure lock button, full optical and digital zoom in movie mode, etc.
The image stablization works effectively along the zoom range and I was able to take sharp-focus pictures at 27x zoom without the aid of a tripod (remember I am an amateur and my hands aren't as steady as the pros'). It's a lot of fun taking this camera around shooting nature, buildings, sports, or just those innoncent people who are minding their own business from half a block away!
The C-2100 uses 4 ordinary AA batteries so should your rechargable batteries (which is included with a charger) die you can always grab those AA alkalines at a convenient store. The camera usually can run half a day (on and off) using the rechargable batteries during my outdoor shooting trips.
To me, this camera is a lot of fun to use, and it provides excellent pictures too. I am satisfied, almost. I only wish Olympus simplify the menu system, put on a manual focus ring on the lens, include a lens tether and a carrying case.
