Unbeatable Price Sub-par Quality
3 of 4 people found this review helpful.
5.1 mp for practically nothing... that's as good as can be said about this camera. It's tricky to use. If the little green macro light is on you'd better be taking a picture from less than 9 inches away or it's going to be blurry. The slider on the side of the camera will take care of all that, but still, it's not a very intuitave camera. The flash comes disabled in the default settings which tends to be confusing. There's a button on the camera that cycles between flash, no flash, auto flash, and something else that's fairly worthless. Unless the moon and stars are aligned just perfectly and you're holding your mouth just the right way the flash makes the picture too light. You can manually increase or decrease the exposure value, but again unless you're super savvy it's a waste of effort, and a lot of terrible pictures! Basically this is a super value camera with absolutely no good qualities other than it's price. If you're a contractor taking still pictures of a property, taking pictures of stuff to list on ebay, or like to photograph your kids sleeping this is the camera for you. I don't think I've taken a really good picture of any kind of rapid motion. Sure, photographing slugs racing would be fine, but using it for a photograph finish would be a baaaad idea. But seriously, for the price, you really can't beat it. You're not going to find Tiffany cufflinks for a buck and you're not going to find a high quality 5.1 mp point and shoot that sells for an average $36 each on ebay, and retailed in the stores 3 months ago for 129.99 brand new.
