Camera Overview — Olympus C-150

The Olympus Camedia C-150 is a compact point-and-shoot digital camera built around a 1/3-inch sensor capable of capturing images at up to 2MP resolution with a maximum output of 1600x1200 pixels. Designed for straightforward everyday shooting, it keeps things simple with a contrast detection autofocus system and a modest ISO range spanning 100 to 200. The camera features a 1.6-inch TFT LCD display with 61,000 dots of resolution for composing and reviewing shots, alongside an optical viewfinder as an alternative framing option.

A built-in flash handles low-light situations without requiring any external accessories. For connectivity, the C-150 includes USB output, making image transfer to a computer reasonably convenient. The body is constructed from plastic and measures 108 x 57 x 40 mm, weighing in at 230g — a genuinely pocketable package.

Power comes from two standard AA batteries, rated for approximately 100 shots per set under CIPA testing conditions with alkaline cells. Color output is rendered in the sRGB color profile. There is no image stabilization of any kind, no wireless connectivity, and weather sealing is absent.

The C-150 represents a no-frills entry into digital capture, prioritizing simplicity and portability above all else.

Description — Olympus C-150

The Olympus Camedia C-150 is a point-and-shoot compact camera built for simple, accessible digital photography. At its core is a 1/3-inch, 2MP sensor delivering a maximum still image resolution of 1600x1200 pixels in the sRGB color profile.
