which is better Olympus C2040 or Coolpix 775

[fcpga]

a friend getting a DC, but he prefer small and sleek plus functionality, like night shots, beautiful colours etc...

Which would you recommend?

2040 cannot be considered small, try waiting for A40 or maybe get a S30

Until the newer DC models hit our shore.........

The Oly C-2040z wins hands down....no competition at all.

It can do whatever the Nikon Coolpix 775 do + some more.

Moreover, the $650 pricetag is not that much diff from that of the $600 Coolpix 775.

The onli saving grace of the 775 is its smaller size

The S30 is quite heavy ;p

2 compact cameras with reasonably good night shot capabilites are F601Z and Olympus C-40. These cost much more though than the cameras mentioned .

The Coolpix going for $510 + 32 Mb + extra Li ion battery if you are a UOB card holder.

That little bit of saving cannot make up for the poorer image quality....jaggies and stuffs.....anyway, as quoted from some DC review sites.

you need to pay for the annual subscription to buy the camera, no first year free.

For new members subscribing to the UOB card, the price of the Nikon 775 is $360.
