The best for under a hundred
bucks, May 10, 2004
Reviewer: A customer
I bought this camara three weeks ago and until this day I have no serious
problem with it. The memory card works.
It is easy to control and its functions are
easy to operate. Yes, is noisy, but others cameras are also noisy. For
under a hundred bucks, this is the best 3 MP Digital camera you can buy.

Serious problems, May 3, 2004
Reviewer: M. Clark "maclark88"
After having this camera for a couple of weeks I bought a CF card for it
(it comes with built-in memory). Lexar media is one that is listed as
compatible. When I inserted the CF card the camera would not turn on.
After leaving it on for a long time it told
me the CF needed formatting. It formatted the media and then the camera
repeated the process of complaining about formatting. Since then the
camera will not turn on reliably, gets confused about the media being
there and randomly gives the complaint about the CF not being formatted.
Compared to my Olympus camera experiences
this camera is a definite no-no when it comes to anyone considering a 3mp
digital camera.

it is a loud cam but the photo quality is very respectable for one hundred
bucks. invest in rechargable batteries as you would with any digicam

Beware of this camera., April 21, 2004
Reviewer: Subbiah Sannasi Nehru "Sannasi Nehru"
I got one of these from the local store. I noticed some noise while
operating the zoom. It turned out I got focus problem and got bad
pictures. So I promptly returned and I got another one.
This one was less noise than the old one.
Pictures came out good. I tried zoom/no zoom indoor and outdoor everything
looked all right to my naked eye. My happiness didn't last until I started
comparing the images (same location, light and only few seconds apart
between snaps) with another Kodak camera. It looks like Vivtar took all my
purple colors in Blue. The color capture in this camera is pathetic. The
problem hasn't end there.
I got a 256 MB compact flash card. I
inserted card. It worked fine for a day and from second day onwards if I
had the CF in the camera, I couldn't even switch on the camera. I checked
my CF, it was ok with another camera. Also if you have additional memory
added then the internal memory is not recognized. Overall stay away from
this camera. I gave one star caz, I can't give zero.

Really great for a 3MP camera!, April 18, 2004
Reviewer: A customer
Sold an HP 3MP camera and bought this 3MP camera which I much prefer to
the highly-touted HP. I've been a Vivitar fan for years and they've scored
well with this one.

works pretty good, April 9, 2004
Reviewer: A customer
This is my first high megapixel camera, and it works great. The picture
quality is very good, and I was able to take about 25-30 pictures with
flash on one set of batteries.
Only problem I had was that there seems to
be a lot of noise at the iso400 settings, which apparently is true with
many digital cameras, so oh well. Overall a great camera for the money,
the lcd screen works great too.
