1.0 out of 5 stars Cheap price, poor performance, October 24, 2004

This review is from: Vivitar ViviCam 3826 4MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

Takes poor pictures both in bright light and low light conditions when using default settings. Any custom settings are lost any time the camera is turned off, so it is impractical to use them. It would take a few minutes to get the camera ready, and you would miss the shot. Not even the flash setting saves.
I am returning mine. I would prefer a 3 Megapixel camera of higher quality to meet this price point.

Takes poor quality picture. Pictures are always very noisy! Even lowering ISO setting didn't help. I didn't expect such poor quality picture from a 4 MP camera! I am returning mine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice Digital Camera/MovieCam, March 20, 2005

This review is from: Vivitar ViviCam 3826 4MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)

This thing rocks, it will do 0.3, 1.2, 2.0, and 4.0MP with three settings for each MP setting (Econamy, Normal,and Fine) and a view finder that zooms in at 3 power, then once you take a picture you can zoom in at 1.33 to 6 power on the 1.5" TFT LCD 24bit display, WoW!!!
It will also do Movies, and comes with the cable that plugs into the back of the TV or DVD player to show the movies or pics on the TV. It also comes with it's own USB cable.
Just one thing that is a little upsetting, is the fact that most all the manufactures of digital cameras never give you batterys that last for more than Ten minutes. You will need to get a pair of CR-V3 rechargeables if you use it a lot as I do.
Other than that this little Digital Camera/Movie maker is Very Nice.
