Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The new, ultra stylish Concord 5345z, Concord's first metal body digital camera, offers 5 MP resolution, 3x optical/4x digital zoom (12x total zoom), and rapid response controls. The Concord 5345z beats the competition with a unique combination of options for both advanced and beginner photographers alike, such as 19 scene mode selections, center weighted, spot and multi-pattern metering, auto and preset white balance selections, AVI video, DPOF support along with Concord's popular easy-to-use camera interface. Everyone, from first-time digital camera users to pros, will love the Concord 5345z.

The Concord 5345z is housed in a compact, stylish metal body for the ultimate in design sophistication and fits easily into a jeans or shirt pocket. The camera's sensitive controls are designed to react quickly to user commands resulting in effortless picture taking. 19 scene selections make snapping photos easy for first-time users. Just choose from the selections to fit your shooting environment, such as party, night scene, sundown, candlelight, fireworks, etc., and the camera will automatically program the best shutter speed, aperture, and flash setting for your surroundings. The camera also features a continuous shooting mode and is able to snap three shots, one right after the other. AVI video clips can be shot at 15 frames per second in the QVGA mode and the length is only limited by the capacity of the SD card inserted in the camera.

The camera comes with everything needed to take photos right away. It's pre-loaded with 9.7MB of internal memory, so there's never a problem if you forget to bring an SD memory card or run out of space in your cards. The camera will automatically save images to internal memory if no card is inserted. The Concord 5345z also includes two rechargeable NiMH AA batteries, a battery charger and a battery indicator which continuously monitors battery-life on the 1.6-inch TFT LCD screen, reminding the user when to change batteries.

Advanced photographers will appreciate the power that they get with center weighted, spot, and multi-pattern metering for fine-tuning the focus and exposure of shots, as well as user selectable ISO, user selectable white balance, exposure compensation +/- 2 EV in 1/3 EV steps, DPOF support for printing, and a macro mode from 0.39 to 2.76 inches--all providing the maximum flexibility for shutterbugs wishing more control.

What's in the Box:
The camera comes with a multilingual user's guide and quick start guide, USB cable, a wrist strap, a pouch, 2 AA rechargeable batteries and charger, and MGI software.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Lot of Cam for the Price!, April 13, 2005

I recently purchased the Concord 4363Z, which appears to be the 4 mp version of the 5345Z. I bought it on sale for $140.00 at a major discount store. This is my first digital cam and I am extremely pleased with the features, construction quality, and the end results. The cam uses conviently available 2 AA batteries and will deliver 40-50 exposures per charge. The body is all metal and feels very solid, expecially the door that covers the battery/card slot. In reading other reviews on digital cams, this seems to often be a weak feature. I am also impressed with the rapid response to shutter release, about 1-2 seconds once the flash is charged(bout 3-4 sec). This can be a major problem with many digitals. The cam is easily configured for point and shoot and delivers great pictures under most conditions in this mode. For the more technically attuned, the cam allows for a number of manual adjustments. I have only tested the video with sound feature, but it seems to work just fine.

A couple of negatives. Be very carefull when deleting pic files. It is too easy to delete the entire card. Certain flash shots of people, especially close ups, produce skin tones that are not real accurate. And it does not do a great job handling backlited, high contrast subjects.

In summary, the 4363Z is a superb digital cam for the money, producing accurate, sharp images. I would imagine the 5345Z would be just as good or better, expecially if you need 8x10s.

4.0 out of 5 stars quite pleased, April 5, 2006

I just recently took advantage of my warranty and sent in my camera to be fixed--the pictures out of nowhere started getting distorted--and got it back in about a week. Hopefully the random malfunction was a rare occurrence because I love this camera. I've been using it since the summer and had no problems up until that point. It is compact, takes good photos, and easy to use. There are many nifty settings, some which are for dark settings and seems almost impossible to hold the camera still enough sometimes.

Another problem is that when I'm trying to take a bunch of pictures successively, the camera gets confused and needs long breaks inbetween (not that welcomed when something exciting is going on).

I personally can't hold as near as many pictures on this camera as I want without an extra memory stick (I got one for about $25, I think) and was probably only able to put around 8 high quality pictures on it without it.

It also helps that I got mine for a great price: about $100 at Fry's. Overall, I feel like it's a great buy.
