Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Slim, refined, and loaded with features, the intermediate-level GE E1040 digital camera is a must for casual photographers who want a higher performance than an entry-level camera can provide. The camera is distinguished by an ultra-sharp 10-megapixel resolution, along with a 4x optical zoom and a 4.5x digital zoom. The combined 18x maximum zoom makes it possible to put your lens right into the heart of the action for superior close-ups. The generous 3-inch LCD screen, meanwhile, makes it easy to frame your subject and review your images without squinting, with a resolution of 230,400 pixels ensuring a crisp image every time. And users aren't restricted to still images, as the E1040 takes MPEG4 movies as well.

Don't want to touch up your pictures on your computer? Turn to the E1040's in-camera panoramic stitching and red-eye removal functions, which make your photos look sharper and more professional. Other great features include face-tracking, electronic image stabilization, a highly intuitive user interface, slideshow and zoom options, support for PictBridge-compatible printers, and a USB 2.0 interface. Powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, the E1040 even includes an SD/SDHC memory card slot that's expandable up to 4 GB.

Clad in a compact, contemporary black housing, the E1040 measures 3.87 by 2.3 by 0.94 inches (W x H x D), weighs 0.33 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Camera for the price, February 4, 2008

Bay Breeze (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: GE E1040 10MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom (Black) (Electronics)

I had to write a review since I saw the one star. I purchased
this camera six months ago and it's excellent. I purchased the black ...not the pink one. Everything works and the stabilization and Panoramic
features are excellent. No problems so far. Update: 03/08 I started using the video feature and was disappointed, hardly any sound. My Canon cameras are better for photos and video but cost more $., Power Shot 800 is excellent in every dept. But, this is an excellent camera...for the price...just not the video sound. When played back on the camera, I can
hardly hear the sound. When played back on the computer...the sound is fine.

I have owned this for more than a year. I am now looking to purchase another for my sister for a gift because she is so impressed by the quality of pictures it takes. i am writting a review because i saw the goof ball who gave the camera a1 or 2 stars because of the size and states they returned it within and hour of receiving it. well had they read the specs they would of known the size BEFORE the order. it is not big and bulky. and they never used it and devleoped any pics so how would they be knowledgable enough to rate it on use. i love it, it is clear and precise. i get action shots and up close photos are amazing. i am addicted to taking pictures of my dog and up close you can even see each individual whiskers with clarity it is well worth every penny.

I can not believe anyone rated this camera 1 star! The camera is terrific. Lightweight, easy to use and very pratical, it balances power and versatility with portability and practicality. The price range for this camera was also outstanding. It is so easy to use, a novice can pick it up and take great pictures, yet the controls allow flexability and creativity with little trouble.
I never been more pleased with a camera, and this is my 7th camera in 30 years.
