1.0 out of 5 stars PIECE OF JUNK, April 15, 2005

Do NOT buy this camera. My father purchased this camera for my daughter at the beginning of December and gave it to her as a Christmas present. I contacted the company the second week of January and asked if I could either return it or exchange it for a different model. There was no reply. I contacted them again a week later and they said to send them examples of the pictures. I sent samples a few days later, again, no reply. Now I was totally frustrated and contacted them again and said I just wanted to return the camera. They said that since it had been two months since the camera was purchased I couldn't return it or exchange it for a different model. (The majority of that time I was waiting for a reply from them) I could mail it back to them and they will look at it and see if anything was wrong. It is not worth the two dollars it would cost me to mail back. I don't think anything is wrong, I think it is a piece of junk. My kids Fisher-Price camera takes better pictures than this. This is a horrible camera and the company has horrible customer service. I will never buy another Argus camera again.

it sucks
the batery runs out quickly.
no flash.
the camera decides when it wants to take a picture not you.

sometimes it`s own software doesn`t recognice it.
and wipes your taken photos when the software doesn`t find the camera.

it sucks.
[...]
piece of trash.

it doesn`t accept some bateries.

I bought this camera with the idea that I could use it for online sales. It worked fine for Items 5 feet away but any length short of that was blurry. The webcam feature worked
well and portraits work well also. No flash made nightime pictures difficult at best.The price I paid was fantastic
because had I paid msrp, I would have been dissapointed.
