$0.00 Summary:
Do not buy this camera. A dozen rolls later, I can honestly say that cheap disposable cameras deliver better quality! This does not even compare to the old Nikon Zoom400 I was trying to replace.?xD;?xA;?xD;?xA;The picture clarity is usually ok but light and color are the main issues. Exposure is the worst problem with this camera. No matter what the parameters, it cannot consistently take a decent indoor picture. The worst subjects for this camera are people and artistic shots. People usually look either dark, greasy and floating in blackness (which would otherwise be a well-lit room), or else sometimes overexposed. (I consistently use ISO400 film for indoor pictures.) The vertical/horizontal focusing sensitivity is a cumbersome "advancement" which prevents me from taking many candid chaotic shots (e.g., cakes, branchy items, abstract art images). I honestly have not tried the new "macro" feature to enable these, but find it all too cumbersome in comparison to the ease I was used to with my old Nikon after ten years of regular usage. Even the color quality is poor, and I''''ve had these pictures developed anywhere and everywhere! The problems remain consistent. Outdoor shots may turn out but again, are unpredictable. My most recent photo results from Kodak occasionally contain unexplainable fuzz and light aberrations I''''ve never had in my pictures before! The imagery looks much flatter than your average zoom camera as well.?xD;?xA;?xD;?xA;I''''m shopping for a new camera. Strengths:
Good brand name, but don''''t let that mislead you. Easy to use and affordable. Weaknesses:
Poor exposure; poor color; too "smart" for quick artistic shots of chaos; inconsistent quality (mostly poor); extremely disappointing. Similar Products Used:
Nikon Zoom400; Olympus iS-20 (bad results!); old Polaroids and disc cameras. Customer Service:
Never contacted.
