 Perfect camera June 24, 2010
Margaret M. Colleran (Norwood, Ma)
This is a perfect camera for us electronically challenged people. Easy to use, small enough to always have handy. Can see immediately if the picture is good (all people have heads, etc.) and, if not, can be retaken on the spot.
 batteries do not last March 3, 2010
R. Smith (Alabama, USA)
my husband bought me this camera about 3 yrs. ago and its time for a new one. This camera is good when you can get the batteries to work! first i used rechargables, didnt last, and now no batteries will work. doesnt last long..
 good for its price range March 2, 2010
Jei's Mommy (california)
this digital camera is comparable to 200 dollar cameras that are being sold as of now.. i have used many different brand names in the 100 to 200 dollars price range and the result comes out the same when it comes down to picture quality. The only problem I see with this camera is that it does not have the fast movement feature. Its hard to capture a child playing around.
 A sorry excuse for a camera November 16, 2009
Elissa Hege (WI)
We've had this camera for well over a year now, and I'm extremely disappointed with it. From new it hasn't worked with the regular batteries--just freezes up when you go to press the shutter. We've had better success with rechargables (it does have two battery setting depending on what kind of battery you're using and we've tried both settings) but it still freezes up without warning. We have to take the batteries out and leave them out for 30 seconds to 5 minutes before the thing will work again. Batteries don't last long at all. The shutter response is very slow, disappointing when you're trying to catch a fleeting smile from a small child. The only reason we put up with it for this long is because we can't afford a new one and film is too expensive to use in my nice SLR film camera with the amount of pictures I take.
A General-Use Camera July 15, 2009
Acute Observer (Jersey Shore USA)
This digital camera has many features. You must read the manual to if you never uses a camera like this. Page 3 identifies the features. Set the 'Mode dial' to AUTO, insert fresh AA batteries, then turn on the 'Power button'. Page 4 explains how to set the Date/Time and Languages (any of 22 languages). You should read the pages on using the camera buttons, first those needed to take still photographs (page 7). Pages 7 and 8 explain the features available with this camera. Pages 10 to 11 explain the menus on the camera. The 'Size' and 'Quality' affect the size of the photo file and the number that can fit on a given memory card. Pages 13 and 14 explain the 'Setup Menu'. You should install the application software before downloading pictures to your PC. If you use Ni-MH rechargeable batteries rather than alkaline you must use the `Setup Menu' to identify the batteries used.
If you choose '1600x1200' for 'Size' and 'Fine' for 'Quality' the photo files will need about 524Kb of file space (two per megabyte). You can delete unwanted photos from memory. The SD memory card can be removed to print selected photos at some stores. If you expect to take many pictures keep extra batteries handy. Batteries too weak for this camera can still be used for flashlights, remote control devices, etc. Always use the top-grade batteries made for digital cameras. If the batteries are weakening an indicator will show less than 3 bars. If the batteries are too weak the camera will shut down, or the screen will just go blank with the lens extended. You must put in fresh batteries to recover and turn the camera on or off. If you should press the lens to one side it can stick and not retract. Gently press the lens toward the center and turn off the camera [this worked for me]. Like other delicate electronic devices, dropping it on a hard surface may cause expensive damage.
The installation software requires a Pentium or AMD K6-2 with Windows 98, 98SE, Me, 2000, or XP. To install a memory card first turn off the camera and open the cover. The front of the memory card faces the front of the camera, the pins on the card face the back. Page 5 of the manual explains how to format the memory card before use. This will also delete all photos on the memory card. The manual is adequate but could use more explanations and a larger font. [This should be available on an Internet site.]
