I have borrowed 2 different Olympus digital cameras to photogragh my paintings, and I can't remember the exact models, except that one costs $800 and the other $400. I was disappointed with the quality of the photos as they appear on my monitor (I haven't printed anything out yet). I posted a painting on the critiques thread and later realized that the image (the flesh)is somewhat blotchy primarily because the reds appear stronger than they should. I photographed the painting outside. I have photographed some other paintings and they all need adjusting. The images are a little fuzzy and in one portrait the eyes are too light. My husband was able to darken them with some tool on the computer. All the photos needed to have "noise" minimized, color saturation increased and brightened.

Needless to say, I am disappointed with these cameras. Has anyone else encountered similar problems? I'm going to check out the cameras mentioned here and I hope that in the not-too-distant future I can buy one.
