The latest model in the Olympus Camedia range manages to squeeze 6.1-megapixels into a familiar, compact body.
On the face of it, the Camedia C-60 is identical to previous models in the range and the unit we reviewed was lacking a manual, so it is possible that we missed some features.
However, the C-60 is no doubt a good-value camera.
Users can take pictures of up to 2,816 by 2,112 pixels in jpg format, while the C-60 also records Quicktime movies with sound, and the duration is only limited by the size of your memory card.
Olympus claims the camera's built-in dual autofocus system, which supports constant auto-focusing, and the TruePic Turbo image processor, make for high-speed focus and image processing. While the camera operates reasonably quickly, the speed does not seem exceptional.
As with all Olympus cameras, the C-60 uses xD Picture Cards for storage. The camera comes with a 32MB xD card.
As far as output is concerned, the results are quite satisfactory. The colour quality is good and the camera has a 7.8mm to 23.4mm 3x optical zoom lens, and a special Super Macro Mode that lets you zoom in on objects from as close as 4cm away.
