It does everything, but you need a PC to playback the sound with the video recording. Audio and video recording is easy. Can be used as PC cam. It is not too small so easy to hold and shoot, but light and nicely designed for the hand and for travel. Can easily switch between functions, delete images, safeguard images, work with images and flash. My photo tech said the photos look arty and professional at times. You can get many different effects by changing settings, which is easy to do. Can insert a SD card for huge number of photos on the road. Takes low light very well, even without flash. Auto features. I used it for 2 years and have some really fine and unique images. The downside: It can be touchy with lighting situations. Take care to avoid solarized images. Sometimes psychedelic looking poster images. Some people really like its color saturation. Have to set it for best pictures, even though it has easy auto settings, including auto flash. You can have lots of fun with it, but if all you want is snapshots, this is still worth the money until you can afford something over one hundred dollars. It does not eat up batteries the way higher end cameras do. Uses four triple AAA batteries. Very inexpensive to use. Dramatic non-flash pictures are possible.

i went looking for a cheapo digital camera. this turned out not to be so bad after all. its been the best. stills, video,audio, web cam, microphone, all in one. [...] bucks. what a deal. i love it.

Buying it was a big mistake.......2006-07-11

I'm so upset that I paid 70 bucks for it...it's not worth it. There are not enough features, the voice record doesn't work, and you can only capture images when they are standing still. You cannot catch anythign while it is in action or else the picture will come out blurry. Every time I took a pic with it, I had to adjust the lighting on my computer. The price is ridiculous and I would recommending everyone to save their money.

Actually too expensive for what it is........2006-02-03

I know this is one of the cheapest digital cameras you can buy. I got it on clearance at Target when it was really marked down. And I'm not picky about cameras. I always used to use $15 film cameras. But this camera is really not worth anything.

As soon as I opened the package I knew something was wrong. It's really light and plastic-feeling, like a toy. I shot a few pictures at the highest quality setting, from up close and at distance, with and without flash. When I downloaded them to my computer I was shocked at how bad they looked. Although this camera says it's 3.2 megapixels, I have to say I've seen photos of this quality from free webcams. The colors are all wrong and skin tones come out an unapealing yellow. The images are grainy. Without the flash, backgrounds are heavily shadowed. With the flash, the whole picture is white. In short, there was no way I could have used any of the pictures for any purpose at all.

I'm returning it tomorrow because I think it's a total ripoff, even at the clearance price. How much would I pay? I don't know, but the old, cheap, film cameras I used to buy are still much more useful than this thing. So you figure it out.

Don't buy it.........2006-01-02

This camera is really crappy. The only good thing about it is that it works, and it's kind of cute (despite being large).

The pictures are grainy and fuzzy and very poor quality. The flash sucks so I never use it - and in turn I can only take photos outdoors on a sunny day, because all the photos I take indoors turn out dark and orange, no matter HOW well the room is lit.

You have to press the power button REALLY hard to get it to turn on. Also, the battery compartment is poorly designed, and if it is touched when the camera is on, the camera will turn off! It's very annoying!! Not to mention it eats up batteries like there is no tommorow. I could dismiss the awful battery life if it took mind-blowing photos, but it doesn't (FAR, FAR from it.)

To sum it up:
Don't buy it. Seriously.
