  • I bought this old digital camera for $10, and I think it looks like film. In todays video, I’m going to review the Olympus C-3000, and talk about why it reminds me so much of film. Old digital camera photography is a great way to express new creativity, and the right digicam can create some really interesting aesthetics.

    As someone who upgraded my digital camera every 9 months in the early 2000's, I find the current digicam trend pretty funny. Back in the old days, people would argue about how many megapixels you needed to have the same resolution as 35mm film. If you want to try a really unique digital camera, pick up an Olympus E-10 or E-20. It used a split prism viewfinder so you could see through the lens, but without the mirror of an SLR. The raw files can still be opened in Adobe Raw / Lightroom.

      Brother. The point of digicams is portability. I'm not gonna carry a big ass camera unless I'm taking advantage of the lens quality

    I bought this camera when it came out for 750$. It was pretty good back in the days with a constant 2.8 aperture at all the zoom range. I gave it to my mother a few years ago. Still working fine!

    Great shots! And yes, the memory card - called an MMC card - was common back then, so was Compact Flash. I was about to throw mine away but decided to hang on to it after watching your video. I was actually looking for a 2nd hand street cam with street cred. The other "old" digital camera I used back in 2001 was a Fujifilm Finepix 6800Z . Took excellent pics )of produce in Cameron Highlands (Malaysia).

    Another great video! My personal take is that the sweetspot is 5-7 MP camera's from 2004-2006, I feel they are a bit more capable. I've got many older Fuji Finepix and Panasonic LX camera's, but do like Olympus (C-770) straight out of camera. Love hoarding cheap digicams, having my eyes on a Olympus Camedia C-5500 at the moment.

    Hello
    I agree with you :-). I have a tiny collection of those older Digicams and it is a lot of fun making landscape photo walks with them. May favorites ons are the Panasonic Lumix LS3 and the Samsung ES15.

    Cool video! I've never seen that camera before, it's probably a bit rare. However, I see it's got a CCD sensor, many old DSLRs have that too, and CF or SD storage, a bit higher resolution, and standard lenses, not 10$, but still cheap, for instance Pentax K10D, Nikon D40 or Konica Minolta D5/D7.

    It was a very expensive camera as it was new. And even the digital cameras that cost 5000€ today will cost only a tiny fraction of this in 20 years.
    But yes it is fun to shoot with old cameras if you do not have to deliver a specific resolution. I still love shooting my GH2 or my Sigma Merrills…
