Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Turn your Pocket PC handheld into a 1.3 megapixel camera! Get close with a 4x digital zoom, record and send video clips, and print high quality 3" X 5" pictures. Why buy a complete digital camera when you already have most of what you need built right into your Handheld? The Photo Traveler 130S is designed to utilize the processing power, memory, battery and display resources that you already have to create a 1.3 Megapixel camera. Simply install the drivers, plug the 130S into your SD expansion slot and within seconds your handheld allows you to capture pictures and record video just like a traditional digital camera. Plus, the 180° swivel lens lets you easily capture self-portraits or forward-facing scenes. The adjustable lens provides close-up to infinity focus for photos of anything from business cards to white boards to picturesque landscapes. When you are finished taking pictures, the normal ActiveSync process will effortlessly download your pictures and videos to your PC.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for the price, but limited..., December 6, 2003

The picture quality and software are quit good, especially for the price.

However, it only has manual focus which is not very easy to use unless you pick full closeup or infinity. Also, the CCD is rather insensitive so you need a really bright subject to get good pics. Finally, they designed the lens to point in the wrong direction by default; it points a the user rather than away. Normally this is not a problem, you just swivel the camera, but you have to do this every time you take it out of the provided pouch because it holds the unit only one way; the camera points at the user. Silly design.

But, for the $75, it is quite nice.

4.0 out of 5 stars not bad for 1.3 MP, works with my T3, October 8, 2004

Just bought one over the intenet and downloaded the driver for my T3 palm. So far I've found it takes well balanced color pictures (as long as lighting is adequate) with the expected resolution limitations of a 1.3 MP camera. You can transfer the pics to palm Photos and transfer them to the computer during hotsync without difficulty. So far no real complaints besides the noticeable shutter delay after pressing the button.

4.0 out of 5 stars WARNING: check compatiblility !!, December 19, 2003

This review is from: Veo Photo Traveler 130S 1.3 MP Digital Camera for Pocket PCs ( V620000 ) (Electronics)

Since this camera works w/ PocketPC 2003, I assumed it would be compatible w/ a Toshiba 755. Apparently it is not because the software installs but my PDA will not recognize the camera, and I have tried all of the troubleshooting solutions. The camera may be defective, but whichever, I regret it because it looks like a good product otherwise.

The reply I got from Veo support re the problem:
"we think this camera is compatible with Dell Axim X3, Toshiba e400, e800 and All hp P/PCs. We haven't tested Toshiba e740." Veo offered a full refund on return, but this is a disappointment.
