Strength:

None

Weakness:

The camera in itself is a weakness.

The camera is a fair product at best. It did not come with a memory card and tech support was not helpful at all. I would not recommend the AOL PhotoCam Plus to anyone. The photos I took were grainy. The only photos I have taken with this camera were evidence of a home invasion. The photos weren't good quality. I have had this camera in my posession for at least 5 years and it simply sits on a shelf collecting dust.

Strength:

Good pictures, easy to use, great starter camera for the kids

Weakness:

Camera is sort of big, Battery latch design, no zoom

I took a few pictures with this camera and it seemed to have good quality. But, as soon as i tried to replace the batteries, the compartment latch broke. I've tried to fix the problem with zip ties and velcro, but with no success. I cannot get the latch to stay closed tight enough for the batteries to work unless i hold it myself. A big pain. I was wondering if anyone has had the latch repaired and if so how much did it cost or do you need to replace the whole camera?

Just bought a HP Photosmart R717, I used it on vacation, So far I love it. It takes great pictures, easy to use and has many great features. Cost about $250.

Weakness:

Everything

I thought I was getting a really good buy when I purchased this camera from AOL but was I ever fooled. It is a piece of junk. For the price I paid for it I could have bought a really nice digital camera.

Strength:

It's name....AOL...But people are learning about every service they provide so the name won't last long.

Weakness:

Everything about it

I was so excited to get a digital camera. I have 5 kids and as many pictures as we take I just knew a digital would be a God send. Think again. The screen is dark, batteries don't even last long enough to fill up 1/2 the memory. The battery door broke. What the heck!! And no ones knows who can fix it and no online or phone support.

Customer Service

Customer Service, you tell me the number cause no one else knows it.

Strength:

Small, light, flash is powerful.

Weakness:

sucks the batteries dry quickly if using the display mode.

For a casual digital camera, it''s been an awesome camera. Small enough to take anywhere, takes awesome pictures! Sometimes the flash pics come out better than my more expensive cameras.
