3.0 out of 5 stars Looks good, but doesn't take good pictures, February 26, 2008

CONS: No optical zoom, odd picture color, long flash delay, no action shots
PROS: Big display, cool silicone cover, CHEAP

I got this camera two years ago on a Black Friday sale at Circuit City for around $80, then paid $10 for a 1GB SD chip from a 4 pack.
Anytime I was in the picture I had a yellow tint, my girlfriend looked red. There is no setting for action shots. You have to be a couple feet away from an object if you don't want the flash to wash the image out. The only thing this camera would be good for is a young child's first camera to take still pictures. This held me off for a couple years, but I never used it because the pictures were horrible. I am much happier now with my Olympus Stylus 840.

I'm no photographer, but the "light level" was poor. Unless there was really bright light, I could hardly see the image on the screen. If I took a picture, the flash would go off, but then the image was horribly washed out.

The camera also had a "plastic-y" feel. A couple times, I couldn't even get the camera to turn on. I suppose this was because I didn't finesse the button just the right way. ...not something I want to deal with.

I retuned the camera and got a Nikon. It was $20 more, but I got the quality I paid for.

You get what you pay for! Takes crappy pictures. You can't get closer than 6 feet to your subject or it's a white-out. Even on a tripod pics come out blurry. Take this money and put it towards a better camera.
