Customer Reviews

Great camera
I needed a good camera and didn't want to spend a lot of coin. I picked this one b/c it had the lithium-ion rechargeable battery and was 10 megapixel. It's super easy to use and has great features. I have taken some close ups of things (macro) and I'm blown away by the detail quality. For [...] bucks, I don't know how you could beat this. Some of the shots i've taken already look professional and I don't even really know how to fully use it yet.

Great buy.

Worst piece of crap I've ever owned!
I should have known better because every time I go to Staples there are about 5 of these cameras that were returned on the "bargain table". Now I know why.

As a lifelong Nikon customer and former professional photographer, I can tell you that anyone who says this is a great camera is just plain ignorant or works for Nikon.

This piece of crap cannot handle any lighting conditions, and I mean ANY lighting conditions. If it's too dark, both videos and stills are incredibly grainy, and the color reproduction is absolutely horrendous! Use the flash, and everything is washed out. If there is lots of light, it's STILL too grainy, colors are saturated to the point of looking like cartoons, and edges are broken up instead of solid lines. This is with all settings on "Auto". I tried "Manual" with the same results.

The videos have lines and streaks throughout, and constant shifting colors in sunlight. I took a video in a park and half the grass and sky are YELLOW and the entire video has vertical lines running through it! My CELLPHONE takes better videos! 90% of the videos I took at a local water park are unuseable. The distortion (because the light is too bright) and grain makes it look like a kid's toy camera took the vids.

Although they claim 10 Megapixels, I had a 1.3 Megapixel Olympus that took much, MUCH better pictures. I guarantee you will see ultra-saturated, runny colors, graininess that rivals most cellphones, and unbelievably poor edge definition.

The "features" such as "smile detection" are just stupid! If you're too dumb to know when someone is smiling then you have no business owning a camera.

I am so sorry I waited so long to test this thing! Now I can't take it back and I wouldn't have the heart to pawn it off on some other poor sucker. I can't emphasize enough what a waste of money this thing is.

I love this camera!
I am so glad I got this camera. It's small...but easy to use. The photo's I've taken so far have been great. It's point and shoot..but has features you can set to take specific photos..like beach, portrait, and night scene. It even has a panoramic setting . It also takes short videos. It's alot of bang for the buck. I bought it in plum and it's very pretty. Not as bright as in the photos. Great as a every day camera..I'm so very pleased!
