no wonder I kept thinking tt I forgotten something.... :embrass:
Another small tip......if you have not done so, don't forget to get a quick charger (3 hrs or less) + a couple more sets of 1600maH or higher NiMH rechargeable batteries.

hmm... wouldn't it be better to get a seperate battery charger?? i scare that charing the battery in the cam may overheat it??
Samll tip #3......u may want to get a circuar polarizer to complement ur new toy....a good one like the Hoya 49mm won't cost u more than $30...though the very best ones may set u back by more than $100+++.
U can't charge the NiMH batts in the C-2100uz!!! U need a separate batt charger for that!!!
BTW, WARNING --> the couple of CR-3V ultra-long life batts that comes wif the DC is NOT rechargeable.

Buy the Olympus charger.. ard 70 bucks with 4x1700mAH olympus battery. Good quality battery and charger.. =)
For me.. I have 16 batteries. So maybe you should get this amount too.
4x Olympus 1700mAH
8x GP 1700mAH
4x Sanyo 1600mAH
Because you are using 128mb smartmedia, you will burn around 12-16 batteries per card. So get more batteries else you got so much memory also no use. =)
Then go get some +4 Closeup / UV lense =)

Got another 4 x GP 1800mAH and 4 x Sanyo 1600mAH.

It depends on the image setting and flash/LCD usage.
At SHQ, a 128MB SM can take abt 90 pix. 1 set of batt (or maybe a bit of the 2nd set) can handle this, even if u use flash every few shots.
But at HQ the same SM can take abt 250 pix....u'll need abt 3 or more sets of batts to fill up the SM card.
Enjoy ur new toy...u'll find it great value for $$$!!!

Go Mustafa...the batts there are cheap...ALMOST half the price of what outside is selling.
Also, if u r interested...u can pick up a Olympus 1.9x C-210 TC there at $70 only.
