Product Description
A long-time innovator in the consumer electronics market, Casio was the first to incorporate an LCD monitor in digital camera for viewing and composing images on-screen. Other Casio innovations have included the swiveling lens design, one of the first 3-megapixel cameras on the market, and extended photographic capabilities. Now Casio offers QV-2300Plus - a midrange 2.11-megapixel camera with a wide range of features designed to endear it to both novices and advanced amateurs alike. QV-2300Plus comes with 3x optical zoom and 4x digital zoom for a combined zoom factor of 12x. Combining the signature Casio swivel-lens design with extensive exposure controls and a wide range of "scene presets" for the average user, QV-2300Plus offers a strong feature set in an approachable package. The camera has built-in quartz digital clock, date and time recorded with image, and auto calendar up to 2049.Continuing Casio's practice of bundling the IBM "Microdrive" with their cameras, QV-2300Plus offers extraordinary image capacity at a surprisingly modest price. Take advantage of the latest disk drive technology by adding the IBM Microdrive to your Casio digital camera. 340MB Microdrive that weighs less than an AA battery, can hold up to 400 images in high resolution and 2054 in economy. The Microdrive's very small size and high performance make it ideally suited for applications needing portability and having high data/image requirements.
Amazon.com Product Description
Casio's QV2300 point-and-shoot digicam features a 2.11 megapixel sensor that captures enough detail for photo-quality prints at sizes up to 8 by 10 inches. Shots are stored on an IBM Microdrive, which is a matchbook-size 340 MB hard drive that holds over 400 images at maximum resolution. Sold separately, the Microdrive retails for several hundred dollars, so its inclusion in this package makes the Casio especially attractive.
Though the Microdrive is particularly noteworthy, the camera has a number of additional features worth mentioning. The lens has a 3x optical zoom and 4x digital zoom, allowing the photographer to bring faraway objects closer. Other features include a three-step aperture control, a four-mode automatic or manual white balance, as well as center-weighted and spot-exposure controls. To save on size, complexity, and price, Casio has not omitted the traditional optical viewfinder--all photos must be composed by viewing the 1.8-inch low-glare LCD monitor, which can also be used to review your photos.

Love this Camera.......2001-07-30
endless picture-taking.......2001-06-26
Fantastic Camera.......2001-06-19
Be prepared for global parts sourcing.......2001-05-16
You are supposed to be able to use standard 43 mm lenses and filters by attaching the LU-8A adapter to the camera. But wait! This part too is not available in the US - I had to get it from Japan.
Anyhow, the pictures I get from the camera are great! I just wish the movie mode had been of a higher resolution and/or a higher fps. That would have left little to be desired in this fantastic package.
Awesome Jewel.......2001-05-14
