 Didn't live up to it's reviews at the time. January 3, 2010

I bought this camera about 3 years ago. At the time it had great ratings so I went ahead a bought it from another store. It takes horrible pictures. If it is not a picture taken outside with lots of light you will get a dark grainy picture. The video on it is pretty good again in bright light. I would not recommend this product.
 Quite possibly the worst electronics purchase ever made March 27, 2009

This is quite possibly the most inferior electronics product I have ever purchased. (It is a close second to a Brother All In One Printer that I purchase several years back that set an internal timer on printer ink cartridges, 3 months.) It is COMPLETELY UNRELIABLE. I've tried to be the optimist and "just carry and extra set of batteries or two, or three," but that doesn't help. Regular batteries, drained just by turning it on. Brand new Duracell batteries (Vivitar recommended), 10 photos. 2300mH rechargeable batteries, 6-8 photos. The video recording feature, low resolution, and only works when it wants too. I feel like even more of a sucker because I paid full price for this camera. I actually chose it over an HP! Stupid! So much for my two B.S. degrees. Please, save your self the disappointment. I've now missed, 1st steps of nephew walking, bald eagle mating while kayaking, snow on my property in the foothills, hot girl flashing me her [...], motorcycle wheelies, and now today, the most beautiful countryside in the Sierra Nevadas. How beautiful you ask? You'll just have to take my word for it, because the video footage doesn't exist. I contemplated giving this to a my neighbors kid, but I would hate for them to go through the same thing. Oh, and if you're thinking, "maybe he just got a bad camera." Nope. Actually returned the first one because of the battery issues. The second one I sent back because it only wanted to record when it saw fit. Try three, all with the same problems. Vivitar actually acknowledged that this model has " battery consumption issues. " It's so bad I'm just throwing it in the trash, not even donating it.
By the way, some of these glowing online product reviews are ringers from the company manufacturing the products posted as damage control for crappy products. Not saying that these are but it is something to keep in mind.

I'll have to admit, I've owned this camera for a few years & it honestly has been a decent camera. We've taken many pictures, pretty good ones & have gotten a lot of use out of it. Unfortunately, we've also bought A LOT of batteries & wasted a lot of time waiting for the flash and/or figuring out the flash cadence, taking about 10 pictures of organized family Christmas joy just to get one good one to send to friends & relatives.
However, I am just an amateur photographer, mainly taking pictures of my unused, unwanted crap to sell on ebay & craigslist rather than of friendly outings, concerts & myspace photos, half the time forgetting to even bring the camera or being too lazy to get it out of my wife's purse. If you're looking for a decent, cheap camera just to say you have one, this is the one for you. If you're looking to take photographs of your favorite bands just to make it on their myspace page, calling yourself a photographer, there are much better cameras out there.

Took pictures and never broke on me, but the batteries are ridiculous. As noted, they are spent quickly. Also the pictures ALWAYS turn out fuzzy and blurry, maybe I am doing something wrong but the quality is very poor. Color and focus are frequently messed up as well. Does take video fine and zoom works well, just not great quality. I am upgrading to a better camera that actually takes a picture instead of a blur.
 Good camera, but more is spent on batteries than the camera itself August 3, 2007

I got this camera for my birthday two years ago and I loved it! It takes really good pictures and it has an automatic stabilizer so if the camera is moving, the picture won't come out blurry. The only bad thing about this camera is that it eats up batteries really quick. If you buy non brand batteries, the camera won't even turn on. So you usually end up spending more money buying the more expensive batteries just so the camera would work.
I still use the camera to this day. Unfortunately I dropped it by accident last summer so the screen gets black here and there, but it's still a good camera. Just make sure you have enough money to buy extra batteries.
