Dating back to 2001, the Olympus Camedia C2100 UZ is clearly the old man on the block.

Weighing in at 22 oz., and packing four AA-batteries, this point-and-shoot is clearly a heavyweight and comes with its own neck strap because it’s so big. But technology and cost limitations meant its LCD screen is a meagre 1.8 inches compared to the giant 3-inch screens today’s digital cameras are used to. Its CCD is nothing special either, an old 1/2-inch 2.1 megapixel chip.

The C2100 UZ Takes Great Low Light Photos

This is its one saving grace: the C2100 UZ takes marvelous low-light photos. This camera's lenses are no cheap affair, boasting a 10x optical zoom with mechanical image stabilizing and an aperture range of f2.8 to f11, it can take on a variety of scenery.

The tiny megapixel count, surprisingly, plays in its favour, the chip has the same space on its 1/2-inch sensor as many of today’s cameras, but the light-absorbing photosites that make up the CCD’s surface are five times bigger in comparison due to the fewer pixels. In other words—the pixels are bigger, meaning less noise and better light absorption.
