1 out of 5 stars I would give this a negative 5 if I could.......2007-01-18

This is the worst waste of money I ever spent. I bought it for my 10-year old, thinking it would be a fun camera and I would spend less money developing the tons of silly pictures that kids take. It eats batteries like there is no tomorrow. You can take only about of dozen photos before the batteries are used up. I've spent a fortune on batteries and even tried rechargeable batteries. Even when the camera is not being used, the the batteries die in about 24 hours. On top of all of that, indoor pictures are the worst quality I have EVER seen -- grainy & washed out colors, and if you use a flash, everything is way overexposed & white. TOTALLY WORTHLESS piece of garbage. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!

Spend twice as much on a digital camera, and you'll probably get ten times the value - steer clear of this cheapo camera.

2 out of 5 stars Same problems as the others..........2006-05-12

I bought this back in February at Wal-Mart for about $60. I had not researched it, but my Logitech QuickCam settings display died and I wanted a new camera. This one was an upgrade as it has a color LCD display with photo preview. My old camera only displayed system options. A flash was also necessary.

I thought this camera was sucking battery power more than it should. It doesn't matter what kind of batteries I use - standard Energizer alkaline, rechargables specifically for digital cameras, whatever... I put them in (because everytime I go to use the camera, they're dead after I just put new ones or freshly charged ones in last time I used it a week before) - I take about 10 pix, w/flash, download them to my computer (since I kept losing the pix I left after use) - which takes power too because you have to turn the camera on even when it's connected to the computer - and make sure it's off when I'm done. Then a week later it's dead when I go to use it! So you have to set the date every time you use it (if you want the date on your photos), and as all the others say, if you don't download the pix immediately, they are lost when the batteries die (it does say this in the manual). I just bought a SD card so that the pix would remain, but honestly, if this camera wouldn't suck batteries WHEN OFF an external card shouldn't be necessary.

Again as others have mentioned, in a dark room, you can't see the object you wish to photograph in the LCD display. It seems to come out OK with the flash in the actual photo, but many photos with flash are just totally out of balance. My orange cat comes out white! Yes there are options, but unless you know how to use them, they are useless - and you would have to take the picture again after changing the settings - which uses the ever-depleting batteries. After about 10 photos with flash, the batteries are 1/2 dead and it won't let you use the flash anymore. I don't even take high-resolution or high-quality photos.

Also - another reviewer stated he was having problems getting the SD card out - you can't just pull it out. Hold the camera with the bottom up and the SD card on the left side - the finger dip should be towards you - and use your thumbnail to push it in and it should pop out. It's a push-in pop-out spring system. If it doesn't pop out right away, just practice and it should loosen up, mine did.

I recommend you wait until you can save up some extra cash for a better camera. And always research before you buy.

3 out of 5 stars decent for the money.......2006-04-06

i bought this camera at walmart for $60 roughly 9 months ago.
it was a step up from my last camera because it had a lcd, flash, and higher res. on the downside it doesn't have a microphone. it does not take very good photos in low lighting conditions and the flash is too powerful for most instances
i'd include a picture but they are all on my other computer
i wouldn't recommend this camera for anything indoors or anything short of broad daylight. also the flash uses up most of the batteries and the 3 AAAs don't last very long (get rechargeables) the only use i can see for this camera is pictures on bicycle rides or walks during the day otherwise it is quite useless. the main thing that really turned me away was that it (or at least mine) had little gray stripes accross the image and a lack of saturation of color. i sent it back to get the screen fixed (at least the tech support is decent) and i am thinking of getting a kodak c330 and selling it here.
