Newbie...any views on OLYMPUS C5000

[johnycichla]

Hiya,

I’ve spotted a camera that I’m very interested in, my budget is £250.00

My camera at the moment is a crappy 2mg auto everything, with no focus etc L

Does any one use this model??
Does the spec look ok for a first camera for some good shots J ??
Thanks for your help in advance
