4.0 out of 5 stars Good Quality at a Great Price, July 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Vivitar ViviCam 2655 0.3MP Digital Camera (Electronics)

Though this is not the best digital camera on the market it is on of the best deals. I have a number of digital cameras and this one is among my favorites. The quality of the photos is above average, much better than traditional film, and the price makes it a great choice for first timers. I recommend this camera to any first time digital buyer and also to any experienced digital user.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great beginner camera, September 3, 2001

This camera is great for the beginner who is just starting to go Hi-tech.

The pros are that the camera is lightweight and compact to carry anywhere. The upload speed from the camera to pc is not that long and the software that you can edit from is pretty useful as well.

The cons are simply the camera is not advanced enough to shoot anything that moves. My friend and I sat as still as humanly possible and all we got back was a blurred image of where we think our heads should have been. Also the color is not as good as I had hoped and the lag time between taking pictures seems to be forever. Some instructions in the booklet are a bit vague and took some creative juices to get the camera properly set up.

All in all if you are just shooting stuff for an auction site and color clarity isn't important grab this camera. Also this could be good for kids to mess around with if bought used.

I wish I had bought instant lottery tickets with the money I spent on this camera. It takes horrible photos and takes a long time to do so. I would sell it if it wouldn't give me tremendous guilt. I think I'll throw it off of something very tall.
