Digital Camera Review
Jan 08, 2005
- By Emily Raymond
The Olympus D-425 is on the low end of an already affordable D-line of digital cameras. The 4-megapixel camera has a cheap plastic body and no optical zoom. It could be useful for taking pictures that don't need to be high-resolution, such as items to sell on EBay. The camera has a 4x digital zoom lens and will be available in February or March 2005. The D-425 retails for $149, which means it will probably end up under a hundred bucks on the street.
Value
For $149, the Olympus D-425 is one of the cheapest digital cameras on the market. It should be a strong contender for the beginner-on-a-budget crowd. This camera should satisfy beginner users for a matter of months, but a zoom lens will be missed by even novices.
