A few months ago Smirk was about to sell his Olympus C-5500 Zoom digital
camera [1] on eBay [2] when I decided to buy it (price was right—about $100)
for Spring [3], who had been wanting one for a long time.

It turns out that Spring didn't really like it—she preferred my digital
camera [4]. And looking over hers, I found it had many features I missed
having in a digital camera—manual shutters, manual aperture, manual focus,
higher resolution, better performance in low light, blah blah blah, that I
preferred her camera.

So we traded.

Can you believe that's without a telescope [6]? Just the Olympus C-5500
zoomed all the way out.

It's a nice camera.
