As promised here is a small camera that excels.
Ok, I'll bite; what is it and why does it excel?!
Well if you had read the original post you would know that it is an Olympus FE110 pocket camera, with settings like the big dslrs, my GF blows pictures up to 8x10 but mostly post card and get well cards. This info was for a gentlemen going to Europe and not wanting to carry his heavy D7100 or D810. I got to admit it takes great pictures for a bozo camera. Again info just to let him know he has an alternative, nothing more!
Well, if I had read the original post I wouldn't have had to ask what I asked. But as I don't spend the vast majority of my time camped out at this web site, like some of the members do, and I am interested in acquiring a nice bridge camera for the wife to use full time, she says my cameras are too ccomplicated for her or too heavy and her older Olympus compact is getting way long on the tooth, it's one of their water reresistant drop resistance models, and I came across your posting, I was compelled to inquire about the camera in the pictures. If my response was in any way interpreted as mean spirited, that was not my intention, just looking at all the possible options available before I decide on what to get my wife. I may use it as an excuse to pick up a mirrorless.

Hi wasn't being a wiseguy, even though it may have come across that way. I bought my GF a Nikon AW1 with both available lenses, she won't take her D5200 out in the rain😂, one thing we found about the mirror less, not sure if all this way, but no view finder making it hard to see what you shooting, and it is very slow to process the payment to the card. Again I don't know if this us typical. Anyway just some thoughts.

There are some mirrorless cameras that have an eye level electronic viewfinder. That would be my preference for a mirrorless camera.

No doubt my preference also, the AW1 takes nice photos just those quirks, peace friend!

I didn't connect it to another post either.

The Olympus FE-110 was hardly a cheap pocket camera when it was released. If you keep the ISO low, I'm sure it can produce very impressive images, even by today's standards.
I had a Olympus Camedia 40, it had a biult in 40x telephoto lens, great little Camera, oh did I mention it's being copied today at 3x the cost? Gave it to a good friend after it was dropped, he glued it back together and it works as good as new! That was 7 or 8 years ago, still ticking!
Do you have any images taken by this camera?
Now what do you want us to?
Yes someplace in my archives of years of photos I have photos taken with both the Olympus FE110 and Tha Camedia 40! I will try find them and oist a few! Both are really nice "little" cameras.
