Summary: excellent buy
Review: I am very pleased with this purchase. The sleek and small design of this camera left me skeptical of the quality, but to my suprise the quality is as good as any 4mp camera. It is also very user friendly, and easy to record and delete video. This camera is an excellent buy and I would recommend it to anybody that is looking for an inexpensive good quality camera.

Summary: Great Little Camera
Review: I just received this camera and I have to say, it's a good value for what it does. I used a 128mb media card and at Hi-Res it had a capacity of 192 pictures (I didn't use it to capacity). I took 3 15 second videos and about 47 shots. The quality of the pictures was excellent when viewed on screen and when printed out. The video with sound was excellent. Photos taken indoors with the flash did not have the yellowish cast that many cameras in this price range have. The batteries still have plenty of charge to them, even with leaving the viewscreen on and several reviews of the photos and video. The one negative I found is that this camera has no facility for an a/c adapter, so uploads may chew battery power if that matters to anyone. I have a card reader, so it doesn't matter to me.

Summary: Great Little Camera
Review: I just received this camera and I have to say, it's a good value for what it does. It's small and light, so it's easy to carry. I don't like the little camera bag that came with it, since it offers virtually no protection against knocks. I used a 128mb media card and at Hi-Res it had a capacity of 192 pictures (I didn't use it to capacity). I took 3 15 second videos and about 47 shots. You can make a video up to the amount of memory you have (128mb = about 28 minutes). The quality of the pictures was excellent when viewed on screen and when printed out. The screen is very small, but adequate for framing and review. Personally, I'm a viewfinder person. The video with sound was excellent. Photos taken indoors with the flash did not have the yellowish cast that many cameras in this price range have. The batteries still have plenty of charge to them, even with leaving the viewscreen on and several reviews of the photos and video. The one negative I found is that this camera has no facility for an a/c adapter, so uploads may chew battery power if that matters to anyone. I have a card reader, so it doesn't matter to me.

Summary: Not very good at all!
Review: I recieved my Mustek MDC 4000 a couple days ago and I must admit I was very dissapointed with the quality of this camera. It goes to show that one shouldn't rely soley on the online reviews of products. I truly don't understand how anyone could have anything good to say about this thing. I had a 1.2MP Sony Mavica years ago that took better quality pictures.

The camera it's self is poorly constructed. The seems don't meet up and are uneaven. I've played with the camera and experimented with all it's functions to see if I could maniuplate the camera to take better pictures with negative results. The Memory card door is flimsy and probably won't hold up to much use. I could see small dust inside the lense of the camera even though it was brandnew.

I'm very dissapointed. I spent nearly an entire week trying to get a good camera for less money. I read how this camera supposedly wone some digital camrea contest and read proably a hundred positive feedback statements. Save your money!

I've given this camera two stars because I think it would be a good gift for a young teenager or younger kid for their first camera. If you know anthing about digital cameras at all don't buy this thing for yourself because you will be dissapointed.

I'm going to give it away to my niece for her 13th birthday next month.

Summary: Great deal for a great camera!
Review: I was surprised when I got this camera in the mail. For the price, and the features, this is a great deal. The camera itself is solid in weight and doesn't look or feel cheap in any way. I was impressed by images that it produces and the features it has. I have not yet used the software, but I am glad that I got such a great deal!

Summary: Not as expected
Review: My experience is poor image quality, especially in high res shots. I'm not aware of a Taiwan company making products in the USA?.... I'd rather put in $20 more for one with an optical zoom with better reliability.

Summary: Versatile Camera
Review: My husb and I just bought this. When I got it in the mail I was scared it would be horrible because it was SOOO lightweight. Turns out it's everything we wanted! It's easy to go thru the modes (i.e. video to camera, etc), the AA battery it needs lasts long, the quality is excellent, it came with a bunch of useful products, AND it's easy to carry where ever you go.
I'd definitely reccomend this product for parents. It takes a second to turn on and I have taken wonderful photos and videos of my toddler. Inside, as well as outside.
Oh and as for some idea of it's memory capability: the 16 MB internally held about 2 min video and 20 photos.

Summary: You get what you pay for
Review: Our review after experimenting with this camera for a month.It takes great outdoor pictures.Takes horrible indoor pictures no matter what the flash setting is it has poor quality with a dark horrid reddish cast.If you do manage to get a halfway decent indoor picture taken it will be sure to have bubbles in it.Videos taken indoors are almost unviewable but sound is ok.I was really hoping for better than what I got judging from the rest of the reviews as they were what influenced my decision in purchasing this camera.I have been disappointed from buying products based in reviews enough now that that I'm not going to base my decision to buy them on reviews anymore.It just holds true time and time again the saying,"You get what you pay for."And with a camera like this your better off investing that $100 and throwing in another $100 or more for something worth your time.
