Here's the story: I had a friend visit from another country, and I snapped many shots. Not only did the quality stink, but, The battery power drains very quickly(using NIMH batteries, which last longer than alkaline.) The camera functions are so slow, that if you accidently press the wrong sequence of buttons while waiting for camera to load properly, you lose the entire storage of pictures. I was fuming mad to see my storage disappear with the error "No Photos."
Also, the LCD display is so small, it's almost pointless to use. Word to the wise.... If you've already bought this camera, GET A COMPACTFLASH MEMORY MODULE(64mb or higher.) That's going to run you at least 45Bucks (See, price going up already) But, the benefit of an external memory module is that you can take it out and put it into a Digital Memory reader. Remember: Avoid this camera like the plague. Personally, I'm looking at a Sony or a Nikko camera.(With digital video included)

Batteries - requires 4 AA batteries that last about 4 pictures using flash.
Software - absolutely non-adaptable to any software other than those provided in the package. When I plugged the USB cable in, Windows XP didn't even recognize the camera.
TWAIN - the Twain driver is messed up. Half the time the computer can't find the camera even when you use PhotoImpression 3.0 (which came with the package and is an old version).
Please, don't buy this product. Or if you do insist, make sure you have at least a 12-pack of AA batteries. I would rate it a 0, but that's not an option.
