1.0 out of 5 stars Not a great camera not great software, October 8, 2001

By A Customer

I purchased this camera, I wanted to use it with Windows XP. I had a little trouble installing the software but I did get it to work. I was pretty disapointed with the software and the camera quality was not very good either. One would like the ability to control resolution and size of image the sofware I received really didn't support thse features.

2.0 out of 5 stars NOT THE GREATEST QUALITY, June 18, 2001

By	"[e-mail]" (South Carolina United States) - See all my reviews

I own this camera, and when I got it, it had wonderful reviews. It's an o.k. camera, but I would recommend a different one. It's very slow and isn't caught up with the sound. The program that comes with it is confusing, and I still haven't figured it out. When I installed it, it didn't work at first because I forgot to put a floppy disk in it along with the CD. I got pretty ripped off!
