Casio QV 2800UX

I purchased this camera casion QV2800 just a week ago.. but in this time, i have explored almost all the options in the camera. The swivel model, is very useful in taking the self pictures. The flash works well for a distance of almost 2 -3 meters.. The 28 scene mode options helps to set up the camera settings automatically. Using macro mode, we can take pictures of objects as close as 1 cm with exemplary clearity!!! The camera is very use to operate as such, without going through much of the manual. A great camera for the price

My background: years of casual usage of SLR cameras for personal projects. I found that the Casio, from its specs, and from seeing demo models in store, seemed to incorporate the best features of the other cameras which I was considering for purchase. Now that I have purchased one, I find that it really is jam packed with useful features. The elements I found essential were it's excellent lens, which captures alot of light, and includes 8x optical (up to 32x digital) zoom; that it is comfortable to use; that the LCD screen and menu options are really easy to use; and that it takes regular AA batteries. I have only begun to take images and cannot review the quality of these as yet, however I felt that an early review would be appreciated by those considering the camera. [please take this into consideration when my rating of 4 is listed below for quality of images - with what I have seen, I have been happy with, so far] Connection to PC (win 98) using a USB port and the supplied drivers was fast and simple. In conclusion, as my first purchase of a digital camera, the Casio is very fully featured and user friendly. It incorporates many of the strengths of other cameras in the 2megapixel and 4 megapixel ranges. It certainly is good value for money.

Overall it reasonably satisfies me. If you are not too demanding on the image quality, it would be a good choice. There are definitely other 2MP cameras with better image quality than the 2800. I would say it sits in the mid range for image quality, but its features and ease of use are certainly among the top. Once you are acquainted with its characteristics and behaviours, you should be able to get consistently good images.

Feature rich. Fast response. Good user interface.

Image details are not fine enough. Occasionally, some jaggy appearance when viewed in 1:1 (100%) size.
