Since the zoom quality was not a high priority for me, I didn't really think 
of that. I believe your store was correct about the value for the price, 
however, thats only true if it meets *your* needs... The best part about the 
line of Olympus C-3* cameras is the good quality of the lens, a part whose 
importance cannot be overrated and is often forgotten in an increasingly 
digital world. The minimum focal length in macro mode was one (of many) of 
the important considerations in my selections.

I have always imagined that someday I will take that digital photo of an iris 
worthy of blowing up to 11x14 so I really wish that Olympus would do what 
Cannon did and make their top-of-the-line digital be able to use all the SLR 
Olympus lenses... Ohhh, yes, put a $600 macro lense on an E series Olympus 
digital, yummy!
