Summary: I was looking for a cheap 640 by 480 camera, and found this for only $79. When it arrived in the mail, I was surprised how tiny it is. It is easy to carry in a pocket, and includes a nice case that mounts on your belt. The pictures are only slightly less sharp than the Canon Powershot 350 which sells for several hundred dollars. The included MGI software worked on the first try. This is a nice camera for someone interested in emailing or posting photos on the web. Like most digital cameras, it has a fairly high battery drain, and I recommend NiCd or NiMH batteries since alkaline will take only a few pictures. Strengths: Better quality photos than most cheap camera photos I've seen posted. Lacks an LCD picture display, but includes a video output which is nice for viewing photos on a TV before downloading. Weaknesses: It will take photos in fairly low light, but the camera needs to be still to avoid blurring. The flash really helps to freeze movement, but is good only to about 6 feet.
To enable the 10 second self timer, you must scroll through the menu with several button presses. Similar Products Used: Canon Powershot 350 Customer Service: Never needed to use it.
