 Very low quality pictures November 29, 2004

If you're looking for a digital camera for beginners this camera might be nice for you but don't expect great quality pictures. Printing and enlarging the photos renders them extremely blurry. Even when printing small prints the quality isn't much better. If you are only interested in using the pictures from this camera on your computer then you might find this camera better suited for you.
The batteries drain very quickly. Distance shots are very poor. The camera does have a nice look to it and it feels good in the hand. Operation is fairly simple. It does have a screen in the back to view photos. The software that comes with the camera is actually better than the camera. I would suggest that this camera be given to a young person just starting out in the digital photo game. Adults may find this camera very disappointing.
Good beginner camera November 3, 2003

I've been using this digital camera for several years. I purchased it remanufactured from a closeout store. Even though I've had to exchange it a couple of times, it's been a good camera. It is very easy to use and doesn't suck down batteries like some cameras do. I use it to e-mail family and friend's pictures and for eBay listings. It has served its purpose well.
Eats battery like crazy October 24, 2003

This is was my first camera. Slightly overpriced (I paid +- 167 uS$). It's heavier than you think. Uses 4 AA batteries that drain rapidly, it's fast enough to take photos, but I dont like quality of them. Seems granulated.. it's no crystal-clear picture to me.
There are better cams for the money September 13, 2003

I bought this camera about 5 years back. I'm really surprised they are still selling something this antiquated. With only 0.3 megapixles it is not a good camera if you intend to print out the images. I purchased it for web work and it does a decent job but even with the 72dpi resolution you get from your monitor shows to many flaws in the image. It comes out to grainy and the colors of people are often to orange/red. The software often locks up and tells you it can't complete the action and you have to hit the retry button on every image to get the pictures off the camera. It does that on Win98 and my W2K boxes. All in all I would suggest spending the money on another camera. Polaroid does make some good cameras but this one is really past it's time.
 Not worth the money June 14, 2003

Very difficult to make the connection with the computer work properly. It would take up to 30 Attempts (each resulting in a full reboot) before the camera successfully made a connection.After owning it for one year the camera quit working. Which was ok because now I can buy a nicer one!
