Wonderful for a beginner!.......2000-10-27
The Mustek has an extremely simple setup process...just pop in the batteries, turn it on, and shoot. It takes three AA batteries that are purported to take up to 1000 pictures! I've already taken almost a hundred, and the battery indicator says "FULL."
The viewfinder is a small digital window similar to most film cameras, except that moving the camera quickly causes quite a bit of blurring. If you have a steady hand and good lighting, the pictures look pretty nice, though the flash is inadequate for low light levels. Action shots are sometimes blurry as well.
The menu system is intuitive and easy to use, with both full-screen (viewfinder) and thumbnail (four-to-a-page) modes. Pictures can easily be deleted from the camera or through the computer interface.
The desktop interface is one of the nicer features. Using the provided software, photos are quickly and easily uploaded through the USB port. The camera/software automatically JPEG-encode all pictures, and short movies can be encoded as .mov files. I haven't tried the movie feature yet, but I'm looking forward to it.
In summary, this is a great way to get the thrill and ease of digital cameras with a tiny price tag. It's certainly not for professionals, but I've never seen a simpler, easier-to-use digital camera. Great upload speeds, great battery life, handy drivers, and a low price tag. Check it out!
