Great!.......2005-01-22
Great for the price.......2005-01-19
My first digital and I was thrilled...but.......2004-01-26
PROS: Has Video Out (NTSC/Pal-N)
Records videos(no sound),limited only by memory available.
Very cool hardware included in package.
Has DC/in so you don't have to always use batteries.
Is very easy to use and comfortable to hold and looks
very nice in a classic way.
Downloading pictures to the PC is a breeze only takes
about 1 minute for 25 pictures at high res.
CONS: No lens cover! I didn't expect that.
The plastic build seems pretty frail and I'm not sure
how long it will last.
when shooting a picture there's a delay and you never
really know when the thing will click...but then again,
I'm new to digital photography and maybe I'll get
used to this.
The buttons seem a little slow and you have to press
hard to get some response.
The main feature this camera has above others I've considered is the extra digital window at the top which allows viewing various settings without having to turn on the LCD display.
I found the quality of the pictures excellent! the flash covers
every corner of the darkest room.
I have tried to overcome most issues with this camera, but finally decided on returning it and ordered a Hewlett Packard 635 which seems like a more solid option.
The Vivitar takes excellent photos and is very simple to use, but I find that it has a very frail construction and the controls are not trustworthy; especially the "joystick" type control on the back which started malfunctioning after a few days.
I had chosen this camera over the HP at first because the HP 635 has no Video/out , but I have found that this is not such a necesary feature.
Tip: before buying any camera, first try them out at the store. I could not find a Vivitar to try out and had no way of anticipating many things. the HP 635 I HAVE tried, and I feel pretty confident it will be a good choice.
