Mustek MDC6500Z 6MP Multi-function Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom

Rating:
Summary: Great Images, right price.
Review: A good one from Taiwan...maximize your money.

PROS:
Wonderful still images in 3, 5 and 6.5Mp quality modes, also you can take video for the long of the SD card inserted in 640x480, can reproduce the pictures and video in your TV set directly from the camera (cable included). Easy to use, great menues (and manuals in five languages,!great translation), fast usb port when transfer pictures to your PC and viceversa, excelent software bundled, comes with everything you need to start inmediately, can play MP3 files and could be used as card reader (sorry only SD or MMC).

CONS:
Poor sound in movies, a little slow to AF and AF lock, also slow to raster the image, the LCD screen is almost impossible to be used on direct sunlight or highly iluminated places(use the viewfinder instead), the battery is a piece of scrap it shuts off the camera when switch to flash mode, you must recharge it every day or buy a new good one, and finally, you loose the configuration of the 12x zoom mode every time you shut off the camera.
