Nice little camera.
I suppose the "little" should be re-worded. It's not the lightest, or smallest out there, by a long shot, but I really enjoy this camera.Sure, the floppy technology is going the way of the dodo, but it is still nice to have the convenience, to have it if you need it.

We love the convienence of having a floppy disk to store photos on, the camer may not take the best quality photos but it is sufficent for what we need.

Very good but on limited use
I use this camera for work and it works very well.The only problem I have had with it is after a few months of taking 30 to 40 pictures a day it won't read a disk.I comes up with a formating error.I have had to send it out for repairs twice already.Other then that the picture quality and options are very nice. ...

AWESOME CAMERA!
This is one of the most easy to use cameras I have ever been able to get my hands on! I take it every where! If you are in a dark area, you need to open up the windows, and it is great quality! For all those people that say their pictures are fuzzy, they need to figure out how to use the focus on the lens. It is as simple as that. I have even played the videos made with this camera on a home theater system that is about 10 by 10 feet big and it looks fantastic. If you want a great, conveniant camera, I highly recommend this!!!

Okay Camera
This camera is a lot of fun.Must be really close to target to get good shots.Good starter camera.

You get more than you pay for
I got this camera for Christmas 2005, and I absolutely loved it, mostly because I had always wanted a camera. I am a bit disturbed that it doesn't have flash, but it's a pocket-sized video camera, and video cameras don't need flash. It also doesn't have autofocus, but you really only have to focus it a little bit for close-up or far away. In low light the camera is colorblind and does not detect green, but I just avoid night pictures. I would find a Canon or similar for flash, but this will do well for videos. The microphone is quite good with a good pickup range, but the built-in speaker is terrible. I stuck Lithium AA's into it to create cheaper maintenance, and I reccomend an extra memory card in addition to the built-in memory. It comes with a computer cable, tripod, TV cable, software, camera, and instruction manual. No batteries or CompactFlash card. ... Read more

Despite the fact that Hewlett-Packard has produced a number of successful digital cameras in the past and is one of the biggest manufacturers of photo-quality printers, the company's lack of experience in film cameras has made it difficult for the public to take them seriously in this field. To help change this perception, Hewlett-Packard has paired up with Pentax for its latest product, and each company has contributed its expertise. The result is a pair of identical cameras: the HP 618 and the Pentax EI 200. With the exception of labels, packaging, and included accessories, the two cameras are the same.Read more

• 2.1-megapixel sensor for prints up to 8 by 10 inches

• Uses 4 AA batteries (disposable lithium batteries included); jointly designed with Pentax; uses Digita operating system

Great Camera for the Price
I have had this camera for about a year and I love it. All in all we have taken about 2000 pictures with it and we love the b/w, color, or sepia option. I have taken some really beautiful pictures that are worthy of being framed and out on the wall. I have noticed the battery problem but that is easily fixed by getting rechargeable batteries and putting the quality on good (you still get great pictures). I would say that we can take 125-150 straight shots with the rechargeable batteries. I have not had to talk to HP tech support so I can't comment on that. We did take this camera to Hawaii and got about 400 absolutely great pictures. I also found that it is incredibly easy to download and email my pictures. Once they are downloaded I email them to friends/family or I burn them onto a CD for people as a photo album, it saves a ton of money. I think a lot of the problems that other reviewers have run into have less to do with the actually camera as it does with either tech support, or technology problems with their computers. If you follow the setup instructions, this camera is very easy to use on the computer and a lot of fun to take pictures with.

not worth the effort
The camera took great pictures, but downloading from it to the computer would not work. I had to buy a card reader. Battery life was very short. The camera circuit board blew in less than 18 months and would cost $250 to fix, making it worthless. I'll never buy another HP camera.

Don't buy it!
I bought this camera more than a year ago. I'd rate it 5 stars except that I had the following problem: The door of my battery compartment got broken! The problem looks silly enough, but upon calling HP they "simply" told me that my product is 'out-of-warranty' and they don't service it anymore. Even worse, they offered a trade up with a newer model. After checking the prices for the newer models, it turned out that they're buying back my camera for less!All the service centers that I could find on their websites told me that they don't service digital cameras (not only mine). So here I am with a great camera that's totally useless because of a broken plastic part and a lousy customer service. ... Read more

LOVE my little Elph!!!!!!!!
Well, it's been over 3 years since I had it and I love it!!! It's just awesome! It's tiny, the battery life is great, the pictures are wonderful, LOTS of features. The ONLY thing is when you're using flash, it's a little slow. I was impressed with Canon and purchased a bigger SLR Digital Rebel for my "big projects" :) But the little Elph is still my #1 point and shoot!

Point and shoot that fits in your pocket
A really great camera that just slips into your pocket. Great to carry around all the time so you can take shots of whatever takes your fancy. Easy to recharge too with its handy battery recharger.

Wonderful little camera!
I've had this camera for a little over a year and a half now and I just love it.It's really small, which is a huge plus.Because of the small size, it's very convenient to take with you and that means you end up taking more pictures than you normally would.I've chronicled most of the little and big events I have gone to with it.Even though it's just 2 megapixels, that is more than adequate for me--I don't rely on it for professional shots, just mostly snapshots.I have printed some photos through shutterfly, and they came out looking great.You could tell that they weren't quite as sharp as those from a regular camera, but I had taken them at the medium compression setting.They were definitely framable though and you probably couldn't tell that they were digicam pics unless you inspected them close up.I suspect pics taken at superfine would be even better.Rendition of colors is truly remarkable, and I have received many compliments from friends on this.Canon sure does seems to know what they're doing when it comes to optics.Any photos I've taken with bright colors (landscapes, flowers, etc.) came out breathtaking.The camera is made of metal, so it has a nice, high quality "heft" to it.The photo management software that it comes with is awesome--intuitive and easy to use.It may run slow on old computers though, if you have a lot of photos in your albums.

When it's good, it's very good...when it's bad, It's pretty bad
I did a lot of research before choosing the Meade CaptureView 8x42 2MP Digital Camera Binocular.This one offers the most for a reasonable price. Unfortunately, the one reason you're probably looking to buy it will be nothing at all like what you were expecting.
Bad pictures, bulky to use.
The main reason for buying this camera is to be able to take good pictures from far away. The quality is very poor. The unit is very bulky to carry around your neck. The SD card slot has some block in it. I was not able to even insert an SD card. All in all, not satisfied at all.

Not worth the money.
The binocs are really nice and sharp, but you can purchase just as good for less.

Canon's latest crowning achievement, the PowerShot S100, packs a high-quality digital camera into the tiny, elegant body of Canon's Digital Elph series. With this item, Canon becomes the first to produce such a small digital camera with high resolution.

Now the digital camera has truly come of age with this ultraportable model.Read more

Digital Camera that thinks it's a tank!
I bought this camera when i was a sophmore in college.And now, 2 years out of college, a handfull of beautiful days, a half-dozen life changing moments, and umpteen vacations later it's still goes with me everywhere and snaps photographs.all the sticker labels on it have since been knocked off but it doesn't matter because i know what they all do.This puppy is built to last.When I eventually pass this one down in the family and buy a new one, I'll be getting another canon for sure.
One of the better *compact* cameras for beginners
I bought this camera for the same reason many of you are considering it, or have already bought it--it's size.It is amazingly small, it's hard to believe all that has been packed into this camera.I take it with me everywhere,literally, it is so small that I am able to keep it in my pocket, and I don't have to fear that it will get ruined in my pocket because it is so durable. There is also a small covering for the lens, so you need not worry that the lens will get scratched.
Very handy second camera
I've had this camera for three years.I bought it new, when it was cutting edge and very expensive.I put a 128MB CF card in it.

Great Camera, Excellent Price
Great starter camera that is very user friendly with absolutely no learning curve.Extremely sturdy unlike new more sophisticated models.

Blurry pictures
I have had this camera for about five years and thought the poor photos were me.But after all this time the camera is still taking bad shots.Grainy(sp) pictures.

I'm Impressed
This camera was another one of those gifts I couldn't use because I wouldn't upgrade from Windows 95, and truth be told I just liked film, so the little camera found its way into the closet; however, when I upgraded to an iMac last summer I hooked it up and was very impressed with the results (I've included six examples in the "share a photo" section, all were taken with the "Fine" photo quality setting (1200X1600 resolution.) A "Basic" (640X480) and "SuperFine" (1200X1600) are also available.

Unbeatable price and features when purchased in 2003
We still use it with no problems.So much has changed since then in digital cameras.But extremely reliable.

Batteries
The batteries drain so fast. 1st I thought it was battery problem so I bought a new set, but within weeks i was haveing the same problem again and my father in law has different digital and they last so much loneger.I can put a pair of batteries in take 2 pictures and there dead by the next day and the camera also wreck the battery as they can't hold a charge.
Nice
I got this as a birthday present several years ago. i still use it alot today. I have had a "whited out" problem, as other people have stated, but very rarely, and i can tell when its whited out and delete it and try again. Although it can be bothersome, ive never missed a good shot. The downsides are: picture taking delay, my brothers 3.2 megapixel camera takes the picture instantly, whereas if im riding in the car, i have to time my picture. the delay just after you turn it on is about 2.5 - 4 seconds, which is pretty bad, but the preceeding pictures take about 1 second. I barely use the auto flash, its too sensitive, it will only automatically turn the flash off if light is shining directly at it. for example, if youre in a brightly lit room, it will still use the flash. The only other thing i can think of is that its card isnt as widely used as other cards such as SD, so there may be a few things it isnt campatible with. but i reccomend it to anyone who wants a good quality, durable, inexpensive camera. i love it and ive had it for a long time! ...

Battery problem a big downer
If you're having a problem with the battery life, judging on other reviews, you aren't the only one.This camera does work decently when the batteries are working.It takes video with sound in addition to the pics.If you have a HP computer and printer like me, the software loading pics/video is even easier.
Good for the price/bad warrenty service/eats batteries quick
I got this camera about half a year ago, and it worked quite well. However, unless you use full optical zoom, the edges of the photos are bent outwards. This camera also eats batteries much faster than my Kodak DX6340 did. I had a problem with the software that came with my camera so I have to use the Kodak Easyshera software instead. Also, this camera records audio videos, but you can only hear the audio on the computer.
You get what you pay for
This an acceptable digital camera, not much more. It's a solid value if you find it for less than $75 or so, but I personally would pay more for a Kodak or Olympus with similar specs next time around.

Camera was good until the lens cover broke
I bought this camera in April 2003 and have taken alot of good pictures with it. I used the viewer mostly so I didn't have trouble with batteries.
Horrible! That's Why I Got It Free With My Dell
I agree with Lagenfeld's review "Not worth buying". It takes forever to take a picture after you press the shutter. Drains batteries in an instant. It doesn't even take good pictures for how much it drains the batteries. You'll be spending $20 for batteries everytime. Even if you get chargeable batteries, you'll be tired of charging them ever so constantly and if you go somewhere and don't have an outlet to plug the charget into, you'll be missing great shots. You have to keep reprogramming your settings on the camera, because it never saves your settings everytime you turn it off. THE COLOR IS ALWAYS WAY TOO BRIGHT OR WAY TOO DARK! You'll make everyone including yourself look hideous or like a ghost with this camera. The person never looks like themselves with this camera. IT'S A FRUSTRATING AND ABSOLUTELY HERENDOUS CAMERA NO MATTER HOW MUCH THE CAMERA COSTS. IT'S NOT WORTH A DIME!!! THAT'S WHY IT CAME FREE WHEN I BOUGHT MY FIRST COMPUTER.

The basics of the Olympus Camedia D-510 break down pretty easily: 2-megapixel resolution; 3x optical zoom lens with autofocus, built-in flash with red-eye reduction, fill, and slow-syncro modes; and a 1.8-inch LCD screen. There are also some more advanced features to go along with this baseline functionality. Particularly useful is the burst mode, which allows shooting of up to two frames per second. Also, a QuickTime movie mode lets you capture up to 66 seconds of footage. There are a number of special effects, including monochrome, sepia, and re-size. Images are generally captured as JPEGs, but you can also choose to use the uncompressed TIFF mode. Read more

Best of the Bunch
This review about an older camera is to help those who still have their D510, help those who may be looking for a very good used or refurbed older digital as an entry into digital photography without spending alot, and to debunk some of the bunk you will find in comments here due to not reading the full manual on CD. The printed Manual, which would be the one a reader would start with, is close to USELESS. Don't stop with this one. It does not do this great camera justice.
Versatile Camera
I've used mine for two years so far and gotten alot of mileage out of it.What I really love is that it doesn't require special software to download pictures.When we go to visit, we can just plug in the camera with the USB cable, treat it as a removable disc, and transfer our pictures to our hosts computer before we leave.One downside is that the viewfinder doesn't quite frame the picture accurately.For close-ups, I have to turn on the LED screen or I cut off half of the face...

A Real Battery Hog
This camera has served me well and takes beautiful pictures. However I spend so much on batteries. Have tried regular, heavy duty, and alkaline and none last. If I don't take batteries out after each use, they won't last overnight. If one buys this superb camera he might want to use an adapter rather than rely on batteries (unless he has won the lottery). ... Read more

I purchased this camera almost 4 years ago and love it.It sold me on the olympus name.My next camera, if i have to get one, will be another olympus. Don't buy it!
I have owned my camera for 2 years and had nothing but trouble with it.Once the warranty expired (of course), I had strange problems with the batteries!They would only operate if they were warm!Very odd.And, just as others have posted, the camera suddenly "died" on me about a month ago.Not worth the money to fix it, I just purchased a new camera.NOT an Olympus!

That Camera is ......
I bought this camera in march and by day 2 while turning it broke.... I had a whole problem with it.I dont recommend it when you have children because its really flimsy..... DONT BUY IT.

A great Camera
The A201 isvery Good camera and I bought it with my own money( I am eight years old). It has satisfied me very well with its price. I am impressed with the quality and I would recomend it to anyone shopping for an entry-level good-quality bash-around camera. I have sent many e-mails using the easy-to-use FinePix Software that comes in the box with the USB (universal serial bus) connector. The software comes with automatic procedures such as saving in the "My Pictures" Folder that comes with every computer. The software comes with the Update and delteable folder called "100_fugi". The only dis is that the camera for some reason makes the target father than the Human eyebut other than that the camera is very good and toped my expectations. At first I thought of buying the Canon Powershotbut the store manager at [a local store] gave me a better deal, the A201.

Very satisfied
This is my first digital camra. I use it specifically to photograph 2- dimensional and 3- dimensional art work. I have been very pleased with the quality of the photos. I also use it to photograph landscapes, although that is not the primary purpose of the camera for me. I have also been satisfied with it in that way. Sometimes I have had "spots" when photographing outside, but I think this is related to the light source. I am very pleased. ... Read more

Cheap plastic battery door - $181
Cute size encourages leisure use, but beware of the fragility of this camera. I dropped it and broke the cheap plastic battery cover and the tiny plastic battery hold-down tab. Minolta wanted $181 to replace. Seems like a rip-off since these are simple plastic parts and are easily accessible. Poor service.

I lost it
I bought this when I was mobilized for OIF.I kept it in the pocket of my blouse the whole time, shooting pictures every where I went.Great shots, plenty of storage space.I never felt the need to use max resolution.Unfortuantely I lost it last week and am shopping for a replacement.I'm checking out the X31 and X50 which cost less than this one was.

A small fun camera- - great features
I have had this camera for about three years, an it is a great machine.It is small, light weight, and it takes o.k. pictures. When I bought it, it only held 12 picture, (I don't know why)but I recently bought a new memory card,and it is great. You can make voice recordings, and take small video clips (35 seconds). The battery life is ok, but not what I would have wanted. Overall, this camera is a great digital camera. ... Read more

Poor customer service
Casio has a history of poor service after the sale. This camera will work for a while, but don't expect to much more than give it a toss if it malfunctions.I bought one of these Casio Exilim models 3 years ago. Since that time, the viewer cracked and the cost of the repair was 90% of the camera's price. Then the software began to malfunction, intermittently, by that time out of warranty. I find Casio has great features on paper but after the sale service not at all satisfactory. Now I have a very simple 5MP Kodak Easyshare. And judging from user reviews, Kodak will turn around a broken camera in 48 hours. I'll take that over a bunch of bells and whistles anyday.

SUPERB CAMERA FOR TRAVELERS
I got my Exilim for taking pictures while traveling, mainly around Europe for three months.The best feature is the small size, small enough to slip unnoticeably in my pocket T-shirt pocket.Pick pockets are abound in Europe, tho violent crime is far less.Being able to carry my camera unnoticeably was great.If you want to make large prints of your travels, a camera with 5 or more mega pixels should be the choice, but the postcard size 4 X 6" prints I made of the trip were excellent and comparable to the 35mm point and shoot cameras I have used.There are many options, such as setting the white balance, which is very useful, that you wouldn't expect on such small camera.Pictures taken in very low light conditions, such as in a darkened night club, are not good, but you do get severely grainy, off color images if it's necessary to take a picture.The 30 second video clips are much lower resolution than 2MP but can be fun to use.I cannot complain about the 3500 pictures I took in Europe and more than that in the US in the first six months of ownership.The battery allowed my chip limit of 120 or so pictures, as long as I could keep from constantly checking to see how the days shots were working.Do all the editing at the end of the day.I did have my laptop with me to download the days pictures.It takes 483 pictures with my new 512MP chip.Enough that my trip to SE Asia for a month later held most of what I took, with no laptop to download to.No more wishing I had a camera on hand if that special moment occurs.

Quick Shot & Size is ultra-convenient
I can snap away at those precious shots that we normally lose due to slow shutter speeds.Just be careful, this thing is so small and convenient that I have taken too many pictures.Hopefully I will print most of them before they get lost.The clarity of 2 MegaPixels is amazing...=).

going out camera ?
This camera seems like it is exactly what i'm looking for. I want a small, light, sturdy, high quality camera this is made for going anywhere. I have larger cam with a 10x optical zoom which is fine for 'photography' but i want something for taking high quality quick snaps at the beach, boardwalk, pool, at the bar, or people pics at sporting events..;) I see it has quick bootup and low lag but w does it do in low light conditions that you would find in bars? How well does it do with motion if the camera is moving while you snap the pic?Is this the best camera for these conditions?

Garbage
This digital camera stinks--buy something else
Good Quality Camera for Starters ...
This is my first Digital camera and I had purchased it off my brother who bought it a few days ago but I've been begging for a Digital camera so he sold me this one. I enjoy the fact that it's a Camera and Camcorder but I agree with the first message it is a bit slow to save the picture and get ready for the next picture to be taken. I'm going to use this camera for the first time at my trip to Magic Mountain this Saturday so we'll see how good of pictures it takes. We're going to be there until dark so I'll be able to see how well this camera takes pictures both in the dark and daylight. I'll get back to you on the results. But overall I think this camera is good for a person who's going digital for the first time. Pretty simple to use and pretty nice style. I think it's worth your money. But shop around a little first.

Good for price; room for improvement
The Minolta E223 is my first digital camera.I like it.A few caveats:Read more

DECENT ENTRY LEVEL CAMERA
I HAVE OWNED THIS CAMERA FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW I BOUGHT IT WHEN DIGITAL CAMERAS WERE STILL PRICEY PAID ABOUT $225.00 I HAVE BEEN SHOPPING FOR A NEW CAMERA AND HAVE DECIDED TO BUY THE KODAK Z740
Wonderful for 3 years and then quit working
I have enjoyed this camera for about three years now. The picture quality is good and it is easy to use. BUT, just a few days ago while taking Christmas pictures it just died! The lens is stuck in an open position and the power will not come on. I have since learned that this camera is famous for working a year or so, and then the motor quits working. I would recommend a more reliable digital camera.

WORST camera there ever was! Get a Kodak (Z760 is awesome!) instead!
I used this fuji camera for about 4 or 5 years! I hated it from day one!! It is a pain in the rear.... and you don't get to change very many settings. The picture results most of the time are not even worth putting in the trash! This camera is garbage! Get a Kodak Z760.... you will be much happier! ... Read more

Excellent little camera!
I love cameras and this camera is a Keeper!It fits nicely in the handbag/pocket and takes great pictures!When I want to take a camera with me while power-walking (maybe catch a deer or ducks in my view...) this camera fits perfect in my pocket and doesn't interfere with my "steps" :)

Lacks Zoom
Picture quality is great and it's so easy to throw in your pocket or purse... a nice camera to have as a second camera.

Great little camera!
I bought 5 of these when Ritz Camera were closing them out at $100 each. Love it as a second camera, easy to use and great as a second small digital camera if not also as a primary one. The other 4 were given as gifts and all those who received it love it too. Easy to pack for everyday carrying! Included NIMH batteries and charger made it even a better deal!

this is a great camera
I BOUGHT THIS CAMERA 2 YRS AGO AND IT IS GREAT THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE IS I DONT HAVE THE DISK TO INSTALL IT ON MY NEW COMPUTER.I LOVE IT THE PICTURES ARE GREAT. I TAKE THEM AND PRINT THEM OUT...

Great Camera, Low Battery Life
This is a great camera. The picture quality is excellent and the camera itself has a cool design. It also has a nice TFT LCD screen and a joystick. Unfortunately the battery life is very low. With the screen, the battery life is only 10-15 minutes! Without the screen, the battery life is about 15-30 minutes.
EXCELLENT CONSUMER CAMERA!!!
I am going to rebuff one reviewer by the name of Kyle.Read more
