	I have an Olympus Camedia 3040Z, and like it a lot.  I usually just use
it as a point-n-shoot.  It uses SmartMedia, which is supported by the
SDDR09 module of the USB-Storage sub-sub-system.  The only change I'd
make would be to make it a true through-the-lens viewfinder.  Fuji makes
several that do this, by using a magnified LCD screen in the
viewfinder.  But even using that, you apparently don't get 100% of the
final image in the viewfinder.

	Both of these are reviewed at:

it's a pretty good site.  Check it out!
