I have one word for the Argus Quick Clix, Horrible. I bought two of these cameras to give to my daughters for Christmas. The camera lists numerous features and that is what enticed me to buy them. I was looking for an inexpensive camera for general use. This camera takes horrible pictures. All of the photos had a blue tinge to them and were fuzzy. When the flash was used it was so strong that there was nothing but white out of the subject. One very irritating feature is that the camera comes on with the flash off. There is no way to change a setting to let it come on with the flash. You have to go through a series of menus to turn it on and then it takes almost 20 seconds for the flash to get ready to use. As stated when it finally does come on and you take a picture, it is so bright that the picture is useless. I would not recommend this camera to anyone.

What a pile of junk. Three full seconds pass between pushing the shutter button and when the camera actually takes the picture. If you move at all during that three seconds, the picture is a blurred mess. Even if you don't move, the pictures turn out blurry and dark. And if you use the flash, you get a lovely white picture of nothing. I can't believe they sell this thing.

I received this camera for a birthday present and I am not satisfied at all. As others have said, it takes FOREVER in between pictures and it drains through batteries very quickly. I have been having problems with the flash also. If I use the flash, my pictures turn out to be nothing but white. If I do not use the flash, the pictures turn out black and red. I would not recommend buying this camera.

I got for Christmas, it was easy to use but only lasted 1 day then the screen does not turn on,,,stay away from this one!!

It's an ok camera. The pictures tend to suck because of the ridiculous blur you get. I also can't figure out how to get it to work as a webcam. The instructions don't tell how, which makes it worse. Don't get this camera. There are much better ones you can get for a bit more money, that won't cause you problems.

the camera takes a long time between pictures to regenerate for the next picture. Compared to other digital camera's this has presented a problem for the two users I purchased these camera's for.

Also the flash does not adjust for the correct exposure at protraits within 3 to 5 feet. the pictures are too hot, over exposed and no adjustment works properly.

This is by far the worst digital camera I've ever used. Please people do not buy this camera not even if it's selling for $.99. I bought this camera from another site for $79.99 and thought I would get a really nice slim camera but buy was I wrong. How bad is this camera?

This camera is so bad that in the month that I've gotten the camera I haven't been able to take one picture. Where to begin.. The camera is slim and light and there it goes people, that is the only good thing about this camera. The bad, well, here it goes

The picture quality is AWFUL. I have a 2 mp camera that take 100% better pictures. Battery life? Oh boy, I am not lying this is the truth. The camera uses two 3AAA batteries and I put two durocell inside and I took a picture, then turn the flash on, it flashes then takes about 1 min for it to charge up again. After I took the second picture and the flash was charging up the battery died. I have NEVER seen a device use battery so fast.

Everything about this camera is just awful and trust me everyone who is thinking of buying this camera. Just save up a few more dollars and buy yourself a name brand camera even if it's a $99 camera and leave this garbage camera on back shelves where it belongs. WORLD WORST DIGITAL CAMERA. ARGUS.

Very portable. Excellent quality pictures. Don't complain if there are limitations to this camera, it's less than $80.00, what do you expect? I got one for each of my little brats and am getting one for my technically challenged Mother. I'm thinking of getting some for my cousins who are all kind of clumsy, if you drop this camera, who cares? It's cheap and heck, the SD card can be easily removed and nothing happens to the pictures! Ladies like it because it's small and fits in a purse. I like it becaue it's cheap and I don't have to give my $800 Minolta to my brats who always want to take a picture.
I tried the 3195, it was good but it's for children. I'll buy it again though, however the 5195 has a 2 inch LCD screen. Come on! You can't beat that for less than $80!!!

I purchased this camera for my daughter who is 8. It is the perfect camera for beginners. She liked the large image screen and that she can also take video. The picture quality is very nice. Shop around for price. You can get this camera for as little as $70.

Great camera and it's so easy to use. It was a gift for my 14 year old niece and she has no problem using it. She loves it.
